The Black Diamond Radio Wildcat Aviation Headset is the culmination of our president David Eames' obsession with flight. After using other brands and being dissatisfied it became a mission to find a headset that would provide both functionality and long-lasting comfort. His high-priced brand-name headset was just too heavy, and for the price he felt it should be far more comfortable. Enter the Black Diamond Radio Aviation Wildcat headset with Bluetooth capability.

The Wildcat is conducive to the three parameters of a good headset: comfort, functionality, and accessibility. Point one, the Wildcat is designed to be lightweight and comfortable, making it perfect for any duration of flight. It can be worn for hours without making the pilot feel bogged down due to it's lightweight construction. Point two, excellent and intuitive functionality. Deep cups that seal your ears in properly, active noise reduction, adjustable height, an incredibly durable boom mic that flexes easily but is very difficult to break, thick, durable cabling with an easy to understand controller, and the same crystal clear, intelligible audio that our two-way radio earpieces have provided for over 20 years set this rugged aviation headset apart from the big guys at a price that they can't match. And finally, the third point that launches this unit to maximum altitude: accessibility. The control unit for the Wildcat contains an AUX jack, making it incredibly convenient to plug in a music player or cell phone so you can relax during flight and never miss a communication. Sick of wires? Good. We are, too. That's why Bluetooth is one of the most important components of this powerhouse headset. Connect your phone or music player without adding more wires to the mix. Power is no problem, either. The unit takes 2 AA batteries to operate it's impressive features, but who needs to be bothered to keep replacing batteries? Plug a modern USB-C cable into the side of the controller and feed it juice from a power bank, a laptop, or any other USB port with power delivery.

Why pay a high price for inferior comfort and fewer features? The Wildcat is the solution you've been looking for. Black Diamond Radio Aviation headsets have landed, strap in and prepare for take-off!
