Helicopter Tugs for Every Application

Helicopter tugs make the traditionally difficult process of moving helicopters with skids a safer and more efficient experience. Designed to tow, pull, and push helicopters of various sizes and weights, helicopter tugs will get your rotorcraft exactly where it needs to go. Using a wired or wireless remote control, they provide hands-free ground transportation, allowing for single-operator use.

Chopper Spotter’s range of remote control helicopter tugs makes moving helicopters—no matter the distance or application—faster, safer, and stress-free. Whether you’re a private owner with a single, lightweight helicopter or a large organization with an entire fleet of heavy-duty aircraft, we have a helicopter tug to fit your needs.

The Chopper Spotter team is here to work with you to tailor our helicopter moving solutions to your exact specifications. We’re capable of modifying any helicopter tug based on your unique rotorcraft and environment to make your ground handling efforts a breeze.
