UL Active Series Accessories

Use your GA headset with the MicroAvionics Active Intercom unit.

You've got a good, well broken-in GA headset that fits perfectly - and don't want to swap it for a new one just because you're now moving to the Active Intercom unit? This adapter connects your GA headset (PJ-068 headphone + PJ-055 microphone) to the Active Intercom unit. Think of it as a bridge between the two worlds: you keep your familiar headset for now, save on a new purchase, and simply plug it in. You'll unlock the full potential of the Active System long-term with the Powered headsets UL-101/UL-303.

Connect your Powered headset to twin-jack radios.

You're sitting in someone else's aircraft, or at a colleague's radio that uses the common standard twin jack — and your MicroAvionics Powered headset (UL-101/UL-303, 7-pin bayonet) doesn't simply plug in? This adapter breaks your Powered headset out to two jack plugs (PJ-068 headphone + PJ-055 microphone), the connector type you'll find on countless radios. That way you can take your familiar headset anywhere. Think of it as a bridging/transitional solution: the standard connector doesn't carry power from the control unit, so the headset then needs to be charged externally on the desktop charger (the UL headsets don't charge via USB).

Pair two powered headsets – a portable intercom without a control unit.

Picture the moment: the engine's running, the wind is howling around the open cockpit, and you want to give your student a heads-up about the circuit – but shouting gets you nowhere. That's exactly where the connection adapter comes in: it pairs two MicroAvionics powered headsets (UL-101/UL-303) directly with each other to form a portable intercom – with no active intercom unit required. Plug in both headsets, and you can understand each other despite the noise and wind. As soon as you also want to reach the radio (or music, a second radio, phone), the active intercom unit comes into play – but for simply talking to each other, you don't need it.

Charge both headsets overnight – ready to go on flying day.

Know that uneasy feeling when the first student is already standing at the aircraft in the morning and you've no idea if there's still enough charge left in the headset? That's exactly what this dual charger is for: after the last flight, plug in both active microlight headsets, leave them charging overnight – and the next day you pull pilot and passenger headsets, both fully charged, straight out of the charging station. No more battery roulette just before take-off, no more frantic swapping at the last minute.

Phone to the unit - calls straight through your headset.

You're sitting ready to start in the cockpit when the phone rings - and normally you'd have to take off your headset and contort yourself? This phone cable connects your iPhone directly to the Active Intercom unit (MM005), so you hear and speak on calls straight through your headset. Radio traffic still takes priority: when a call comes in, the phone call steps back so you never miss anything on frequency.

No more wind noise – clear radio for next to nothing.

Has the foam over your microphone gone soft, and now every word on the radio comes with the sound of the wind whistling along? This windscreen slips over your mic in seconds and keeps the wind off before it tears up your voice. An inexpensive wear part that's well worth keeping a spare of in your flight bag – then you'll never be caught out with a windy radio again.

Turns the unit's headset cable into a panel connection.

Know that loose device cable that dangles somewhere in the footwell every time you get in, wrapping itself around the stick? This adapter puts a stop to that: it converts the headset cable of your active intercom unit into a panel connector on the instrument panel. The loose lead becomes a fixed, tidy connection point – you plug in right at the panel as you get in, and cable clutter in the cockpit is history.

The replacement and connection cable for onboard power.

Are you installing your active intercom unit permanently in the aircraft and want to wire it neatly into the onboard power supply – or has an old, brittle cable failed on you mid-season? This power cable connects your MicroAvionics active intercom unit precisely to the aircraft's electrical system. It comes fully assembled and with secure connectors, so all you need to do is plug it in instead of soldering it yourself before your next flying day.

No more ignition noise on the radio - clean audio.

You start the engine, and straight away there's that annoying crackle and hum in your ear, rising with every change in RPM - typical of paramotors and gyros with their noisy ignition systems? The small power filter sits between the onboard power supply and the Active Intercom unit and filters out exactly this electrical noise. That keeps communication clear, even with the engine running. It plugs straight into the unit - no stripping cables, no fiddling.

A permanently fitted transmit switch - on the stick or the panel.

You don't want to reposition your transmit switch every time - you want it permanently exactly where your thumb naturally sits, right on the control stick or instrument panel? This PTT switch is built for permanent mounting and sits rock solid. At the crucial moment, when ATC calls, you won't be searching for anything - thumb down, transmit, keep flying.

Your transmit switch, right where you need it.

Sometimes your hand is on the stick, sometimes on the harness, sometimes on the cockpit rail - and in the wrong moment you're hunting for the transmit switch instead of just talking? This PTT switch with Velcro mount sticks exactly where your hand naturally rests, with no drilling required. The coiled cable keeps the run to the interface short and tidy. If you change your setup, just peel the switch off and stick it down again - press, talk, keep flying.

Connect a second radio - no extra transmit switch needed.

You fly with two radios - one on the airfield frequency, one on info - and want both connected to the same Active Intercom unit, without fitting a second control unit? This second-radio cable with twin jack and coiled cable connects your additional radio directly. You won't need an external transmit switch for it: to transmit, you simply use the PTT button on the radio itself. Please state the make and model of your radio when ordering, so the connector fits.

Music in, recording audio out - in stereo.

On a relaxed cross-country flight you want to pipe in some music - or you're flying with a camera and want clean radio and intercom audio in the video afterwards, instead of just wind noise? This stereo audio cable brings audio into and out of your Mk2-generation Active Intercom unit. Feed your music source into one of the two audio inputs while simultaneously routing the onboard audio out through the recording output - one cable for both directions.

Switch between two headset setups – without unplugging.

Do you fly the same aircraft solo with your own headset one day, and with a passenger in a different configuration the next – crawling under the panel each time to swap connectors? This switching adapter takes exactly that fiddling off your hands: it routes your MicroAvionics powered system between the different headset connections, so you switch your setup instead of rewiring it every time. You get in, flip the switch, and you're connected.
