Tecnología de Producción: The cabin is a carbon fiber and epoxy resin semi monocoque manufactured using vacuum bagging to optimize the strength to weight ratio.
The structure integrates a spatial reticulated airframe made of aeronautical sae 4130 steel. The tail boom utilizes aluminum 2024 t6 struts designed to withstand high maneuvering stresses.
The design utilized a digital workflow from 3d modeling to CNC machined molds ensuring aerospace grade surface continuity and structural integrity.
Desafío de Diseño: The main challenge was bridging a 60-year-old artisanal legacy with modern industrial design. A key creative conflict was aesthetic: I proposed a minimalist approach, exposing the iconic tubular tail to reduce weight and costs, whereas the founder sought a fluid, integrated and covered look.
We had to balance visibility against structural rigidity while integrating a carbon fiber cabin with a steel frame.
Investigación: The research bridged artisanal excellence with industrial precision through systemic design. The initial phase involved qualitative interviews with directors engineers pilots and technicians. These insights guided the ergonomic optimization of the cabin. The methodology integrated iterative prototyping with advanced 3d modeling validated by flight tests. Results led to a carbon fiber semi monocoque cabin with structural safety and visibility of the skid tips. This research was fundamental in securing global certifications and boosting international sales.
Inspiración: the cicare 8 is inspired by the engineering of augusto cicare, translating a 60 year heritage of artisanal excellence into a sophisticated industrial product. the design finds its motive in feline facial features, where window frames resemble the alert eyes of a predator. this organic morphology creates an aggressive profile that communicates agility and establishes a unique identity. driven by market demand for side by side seating, it integrates carbon fiber and a digital workflow while maintaining the brand dna.
Duración del Proyecto: the design process was conducted from 2013 to 2015 in saladillo buenos aires argentina. the aircraft was exhibited at major airshows including aero friedrichshafen and eaa airventure oshkosh where it received the lindbergh award for its outstanding fit and finish. in 2016 it earned the sello de buen diseno and the innovar award. a key milestone was achieved with the german ltf ulh certification making it the worlds first 600kg class ulm type certified helicopter.
Flujo de Operación: Access is intuitive through wide doors leading to a side by side cockpit optimized for leg comfort.
Pilots interact with a unique patented adjustable control system and a state of the art instrument panel.
The flight experience is defined by panoramic visibility including a specific design focus that allows viewing the skid tips from the inside for safer landings.
The centrifugal clutch ensures a seamless linkage between engine and transmission providing a gradual engagement imperceptible to passengers.
