Using a H10-36 in a GA aircraft - it's the right impedance, right?
Posted by PooPooPointBoiz@reddit | flying | View on Reddit | 6 comments
I got a helo headset for cheap, I couldn't pass it up. So now I'm planning on getting a Helo to GA adapter and running it.
As far as I can tell, the H10-36 is identical to the H10-30 with the only difference being the plug.
So that being said, it should be high impedance for the ear speakers and for the mic. Is there any way to test that, like with a mult-meter or something on the plug?

Headsets inc will do the conversion for you if you want it.

Have you used them? I have an old DC set my dad used and I was wondering if I should spring for the Headsets Inc conversion or just find a used A20 for him.

What conversion do I need? The H10-30 is for GA aircraft and this uses the same mic and speakers (as far as I can tell). Can't I just get a 30 dollar adapter and run it?

If you are sure that the impedance is correct, sporty's has the connector adapter cable for $27

For the David Clark headsets that ARE odd impedance (military ones) there is a kit with a replacement mic.
The speakers work just fine...
There is also just a plain plug-adapter, for the ones that are for civilian helos to work in fixed-wing GA aircraft.
