Nocpix RICO 3 H50R 640x512 3x 50mm LRF Thermal Scope

NOCPIX RICO 3 H50R Thermal Weapon Sight

The NOCPIX RICO 3 H50R is part of NOCPIX's next-generation RICO 3 thermal weapon sight family. NOCPIX describes the platform as an integrated smart thermal shooting system that builds on the RICO 2 with advanced ballistic integration, enhanced laser-rangefinder capability and extended battery life. This RICO3 H50R configuration combines a 640x512 thermal sensor, 50 mm F/1.0 objective, 3X base magnification and an integrated 1,600-yard laser rangefinder in a magnesium, IP67-rated housing.

For hunters and shooters comparing thermal optics, the RICO 3 platform brings ranging, ballistic calculation, imaging, recording and connectivity into one optic. Review the specifications below and add the NOCPIX RICO 3 H50R to your cart at BattleHawk Armory when this model fits your needs.

50 mm Optics for Long-Range Thermal Observation

The H50R combines a 50 mm F/1.0 objective with 3X base magnification, an 8.8 x 7.0 field of view and a manufacturer-listed 2,840-yard detection range. That specification set favors users who want more reach and a narrower viewing window than the 35 mm models. The 640x512, 12-micron sensor and Reality+ processing support detailed thermal imagery, while the 60 Hz refresh rate is designed to keep movement looking fluid through the eyepiece.

Up to 8X digital zoom provides additional image enlargement for closer inspection. The standard H50R does not include the Pro model's autofocus or Ocular Zoom 2.0 features, but it retains the core RICO 3 platform: integrated rangefinding, ballistic calculation, recording, app connectivity, a high-resolution round display and extended operating time.

Integrated Rangefinding and Ballistic Support

An integrated laser rangefinder provides distance readings out to a listed 1,600 yards, while the onboard ballistic-calculation feature supports a more streamlined firing-solution workflow. The scope includes eight reticle types - seven static designs and one DIY option - plus multiple reticle colors for adapting the display to the selected thermal palette and background. Picture-in-picture mode can keep a magnified aiming area visible while preserving more of the surrounding scene.

Range and ballistic features are decision-support tools, not substitutes for positive target identification, a safe backstop or independently verified firearm and ammunition data. Enter and confirm the correct ballistic information, follow the current NOCPIX instructions and observe all applicable laws and safe-firearm practices.

Recording, Connectivity and Power

The RICO 3 can capture video and still images, and it supports recoil-activated recording. Built-in 64 GB storage provides space for saved media, while wireless connectivity allows image and video transfer through the compatible app. A USB-C connection handles data and power functions. The power system uses USB-C and two NBP-8 lithium-ion batteries, with a listed maximum operating time of 10 hours. Startup is specified at less than 10 seconds, with instant operation available from standby.

Actual runtime, image quality, detection performance and recording capacity can vary with temperature, settings, zoom, wireless use, battery condition, atmospheric conditions and the size of the observed heat source. The thermal images shown by the manufacturer are illustrative, and real-world results may differ.

Mounting, Construction and Environmental Specifications

• Mounting system: Picatinny MIL-STD-1913 rail
• Housing: Magnesium
• Ingress protection: IP67
• Operating temperature: -4F to 122F
• Maximum recoil rating: 1,000 g/s, listed for .300 Win. Mag. and 7 mm Mag.
• Dimensions: 9.2 x 3.43 x 3.43 inches
• Weight: 32.77 oz
• Manufacturer warranty: 5 years

Confirm rail space, eye position and fastener torque before use. After mounting, verify zero and inspect the installation regularly. The maximum recoil listing does not replace the firearm, mount or ammunition manufacturer's requirements. NOCPIX products are distributed and supported in the United States by iRayUSA.

Choosing the H50R within the RICO 3 Family

Select the H50R when a 640x512 sensor, 50 mm objective and listed 2,840-yard detection range are the priorities. The H35R uses the same sensor resolution but shifts to a 35 mm lens, 2X base magnification and a wider 12.6 x 10.1 field of view. The L35R uses a 384x288 sensor with a 35 mm lens. The RICO 3 Pro H50R adds autofocus and Ocular Zoom 2.0 but increases size and weight. This makes the standard H50R a balanced 50 mm option for users who want the family's long-range optical configuration without the Pro-specific feature set.
