Detailed Description

The ProMax Passive (PNR) headset from Pilot USA is engineered for pilots seeking a reliable, no-electronics, passive solution with modern flexibility. At approximately 14.9 oz (422 g), it ranks among the lightest headsets in its class while delivering robust noise attenuation and connectivity features.

Its modular wiring system supports three connector styles: standard GA dual plugs, a single helicopter plug, or a 6-pin LEMO for panel power installations. Users can change cords as needed. The headset supports simultaneous use of two audio sources (e.g. intercom and tablet), and features a record-out jack to capture radio audio on cameras or recorders. A USB-C port allows external power to extend performance beyond AA battery life.

Comfort and usability are top priorities: the ProMax Passive includes protein-leather ear seals, a soft head pad, adjustable memory-flex boom mic, and dual volume controls. Its auto shut-off feature helps conserve battery life when inactive. With a 3-year warranty, it’s built for dependable performance.
