Carson Helicopters was the first company to shorten a commercial S61.
The fuselage is shortened by 50in (1.6m) to increase single engine performance and external payload.

One modification for the S-61 is the Carson Composite Main Rotor blade.
These blades replace the original Sikorsky metal blades which are prone to fatigue.
The Carson Composite Main Rotor blades permit a modified aircraft to carry an additional 2,000 lb (907 kg) load, fly 15 kn (28 km/h) faster and increases range 61 nmi (113 km).
