Chopper 5

Chopper 5

Chopper 5 is a Bell Jet Ranger capable of traveling up to 100 knots, or 115 miles per hour.

It’s equipped with a gyro-stabilized UltraMedia II camera, which means it can capture clear and steady pictures of a news scene from up to four miles away.

Chopper 5 transmits its high-definition-ready video back to the KCTV5 news studios via a Sky Troll microwave system.
