Rugged. Air RA900 Premium Stereo Aviation Pilot Headset for Flight Instructors Private Pilots Features Clear Hear Speakers Noise Canceling Microphone Gel Ear Seals and Free Headset Bag

Great Pilot Headset for Student Pilot, quality for your Money.

Very nice looking and very comfortable headset. I bought them last part of July '22 and used them very recently. The microphone did not work, sound was sporadic. Very disappointed with this headset and microphone. UPDATE #2: Flew today for 2.5 hours. The headset worked flawlessly. Both hearing ATC comms and voice transmission had zero problems. I suspected this might be the case and that the original problem may have been related to a bad connection in the plane. But, at that point I just couldn't tell which. As such, I've changed my rating to 5 stars and highly recommend them. On this note, the pilot I flew with today asked whether I liked the Rugged Air headset. I told him the same. Highly recommended. They are as comfortable, if not more so, as David Clark's. UPDATE #1: I tested them yesterday in the C172 and have changed my rating to 3 stars because the Mic seemed to work as I could transmit and hear myself through the ear covers. There was no traffic at the airport so I did not hear anyone but myself. A couple radio checks yielded no replies, but I could hear myself perfectly. So, at this point I still have no definitive complete detail to provide. The C172 will not be ready and available again until after the period for returning and exchanging it. So, at this point it’s a gamble. All that said, this is an exceptionally comfortable headset. As far as comfort is concerned they are clearly on par with David Clarks. On the 23d I’ll post a complete review and if warranted change my star rating. At this point Im remaining hopeful and optimistic.

Better than expected. Quiet enough and the RA900 has the quality and sturdiness to it. I’m very satisfied I got them. The box it shipped in was torn open I’m not sure if it was because of the transporting. But after testing them out it’s perfect. Comfortable, Functional, has mono and stereo option but it’s not a BIG difference in sound but a little.

The headset is of good quality. It is a little heavy but for the money savings I can definitely overlook the few ounces of extra weight. The gell ear pads are extremely comfortable. The sound is good and t by e mic is clear. The packaging could have been better. The headset was shipped in its bag and then in a paper mailing envelope. It would have been better protected in a box. They state that there is a 7 year warranty on this product. However there was no paperwork or registration information information for the product. I would have given this a 5 star rating if it had the paperwork to go with it and was packaged a little better for shipping. Other than that I am satisfied with the headset.

I bought this headset a couple years ago to be used as a passenger headset, but I have used it myself a couple of times just to see how it is, and this is by far the best starter headset you can get for your money. If you are a student pilot that needs a headset, but doesn't want to spend big in case if you don't stick to flight training, I would highly recommend this, as well as those who are just looking for a decent passenger headset. There isn't a lot of bells and whistles to it, but it is fairly comfortable, and there is also an aux port on it, which is super nice to see.

I was feeling quite smug that I could get a pilot headset for 1/3 of what the more established brands cost. I don't feel so smug now. These lasted and seemed to work just fine for three brief instruction flights, maybe 7 hours at most. Then they basically imploded. First one of the adjustment screws literally flew off as I normally and gently took off the headset at the end of the flight. Then both ear pads randomly just fell off, then the second adjustment screw similarly failed despite not being abused in any way. They sounded fine, but honestly these are so badly made that they are dangerous if you are expecting to ever use them as the PIC. Other people have had better luck than me, so maybe roll the dice on these if you just need some cheap headset for a rare passenger. But really no one who is going to be actually flying the airplane, expected to hear and communicate with ATC etc. should be depending on these. If they failed this easily and this spectacularly, there is no reason to think they wouldn't break on you in the middle of a flight, and that could be dangerous. They broke 3 days after the return period. So now I am off to go spend the big $$ on a quality headset after totally wasting my money on these.

First day of use. So far works great. Nice snug fit around the ears and blocks the outside noise well. ATC had no problem with the mic quality. Great buy so far.

Good for starter headset, not for experienced pilots or those who want to spend a lot of time in the air. Pretty good for coms. The ear cushions came off on the second trip. It’s good if you need to replace them, not good if all they did was brush against something and pop off. The noise cancellation is not great at all. Picked up the engine a lot of the time. You get what you pay for.

Buen producto, tiene buen sonido, se acomoda bien y son cómodos. Aísla bien el sonido exterior de la cabina. Cabe mencionar que apenas los he usado por un par de horas continuas, pero hasta ahora bastante bien. No he utilizado la función de conectar el celular o música. Calidad buena acorde con el precio.
