I really need your help.  All of Helio's documents were lost. I need technical manual and flight manual.
I found this manual:

But I don't know if it will fit my plane.

Rais I sent you a link to some H-295/395 manuals

Hello.

Now Helio lives in a dry hanger. Professional mechanics work with him. I really hope that Helio will fly again in 1-2 months.
Very big problems with spare parts. Aircraft parts are prohibited for delivery to Russia.
Need new spark plugs and rear wheel. Tell me which spark plugs are suitable for GO-480G1D6?
The following spark plugs were installed on my plane:

On the tail wheel I have this tire:

Can you offer lower prices for spark plug and rear tire replacements?

I really want to fly on my Helio!) Help me!)

Rais,
  The spark plugs that you show in Aircraft Spruce are fine wire plugs. Regular plugs are about $100 less each and work well. Fine wire plugs are supposed to be more resistant to fouling but in my opinion, don't seem to be any better. Are your plugs that bad that they can't be cleaned and gapped ?   Also with the shipments, would one of us be able to ship to you if you had the merchandise shipped to us ?   I would be willing to do that for you.    Paul

Thank you for your help! Can you recommend cheaper spark plugs?

Rais,
  My GO-480 has RHB37E in it. You need to double check your paperwork to see exactly what yours should have. Different models have different spark plugs. Some take short reach, some take long reach. I'm not an expert. Maybe someone else here has more knowledge than I. Paul

Thanks for the answer. What is your Lycoming? GO-480G1D6?!

[paullapoint]

It Is.

[Rais]

It Is.

Thank you!)))

Tell me what to do with the rear wheel? There is some kind of rubber replacement 10.00 SC?

[Rais]

Good afternoon.
Tell me how to replace the bolt AN 180-63, which is used as the axle of the rear wheel? I can't find this bolt for sale.

Now there is a wheel from PZL-104 Wilga, but I want to put my own wheel.

Thank you.

[Rais]

This is what the rear wheel from PZL-104 Wilga looks like on my Helio!

Hi all.

Yesterday we flew around on a Helio x-395 aircraft, after 4 years of inactivity. I am very happy. This is a wonderful aircraft. In the summer of 2018, a public organization dedicated to the protection of wild animals bought this aircraft from Anatoly Kalinin, but due to certain circumstances, she could not use it. The plane was abandoned and stood at the UUBM airport for four years. In February 2022, I bought the plane and yesterday I managed to take it into the air. Another flying Helio table more.
Thank you all for your help and advice.

Congratulation.  Some say the 395 is the most amazing of all the Helio models.

I find more flaps could had been put.  I usually put as much flaps as a full deflection of the aileron.

I don't understand the landing gear movement.  It doesn't change angle between on ground or off the ground.  The Helio have a large extent in the movement of the landing gear.   I can't see it here.

Like in this U10 take off where we see more flaps and a big change in the landing gear angle before and after takeoff

Is there a difereence between a 395 and a 295 ?
