History
The company was founded in the early 1980s as just Dynali. It started as a fixed wing ultralight aircraft builder, constructing over 1000 Dynali Chickinox aircraft.[3]
As new materials became available, such as carbon fibre, the company raised the capital from a shareholder to branch out into helicopter design and the name was changed to the Dynali Helicopter Company. New European microlight helicopter regulations introduced in 2011 allowed production to start and the company produced the H2 and later the H3. The H3 became the sole product in the mid 2010s, superseding the H2 in production.[2][3]
Dynali helicopters have been sold in France and South Korea.[3]
