NocPix RICO2 H50R Thermal Imaging Scope with LRF

The NocPix RICO 2 H50R uses a dedicated mounting interface on the underside of the scope rather than a conventional round riflescope tube.

The manufacturer's standard package includes a purpose-designed dual-throw quick-detach Picatinny mount, allowing the scope to be fitted to a compatible Picatinny rail without purchasing separate mounting rings.

• Mounting system: dedicated RICO 2 quick-detach mount
• Rail compatibility: suitable Picatinny rail
• Mount included: yes
• Conventional scope rings required: no
• Mounting hardware: M5 screws and installation tools supplied

The RICO 2 H50R does not require 30mm or 34mm scope rings. The free Hawke Match Mounts promotion used for conventional tube-mounted scopes is therefore not necessary for this model.

Rifles equipped with a dovetail rail may require a suitable Picatinny adapter or an alternative compatible mounting arrangement.

Always follow the manufacturer's mounting instructions and recommended tightening torque.

The RICO 2 H50R incorporates a 640 × 512 VOx thermal detector with a 12μm pixel pitch, providing 327,680 individual thermal pixels.

Its ≤15mK NETD sensitivity allows the detector to distinguish very small temperature differences under specified test conditions.

This supports detailed thermal observation in challenging environments, particularly when the temperature difference between a subject and its surroundings is relatively small.

Compared with the 384 × 288 RICO 2 L42R, the H50R captures almost three times as many thermal pixels, providing considerably more native image detail.

The 60Hz refresh rate helps maintain smooth image updates during observation and movement.

The H50R features a 50mm germanium objective lens with an F1.0 aperture.

The objective collects thermal radiation and focuses it onto the high-resolution detector, supporting detailed thermal observation across a variety of distances.

The 50mm focal length offers a practical balance between magnification and field of view.

Compared with the larger 75mm RICO 2 H75R, the H50R provides a wider viewing area and lower starting magnification, making it particularly versatile for mixed-distance observation.

NocPix specifies a maximum thermal detection distance of up to 2,600 metres for the RICO 2 H50R.

This figure is based on the manufacturer's reference target under specified test conditions.

Detection refers to establishing the presence of a heat source. It should not be confused with recognising or positively identifying a particular subject at the maximum detection distance.

Actual detection and identification performance depends on subject size, temperature contrast, humidity, weather and atmospheric conditions.

The RICO 2 H50R offers a magnification range of 3–24×.

Its angular field of view is 8.8° × 6.6°, equivalent to approximately 15.4 × 11.5 metres at 100 metres.

The 3× starting magnification provides a useful viewing area for observation, while higher magnification settings allow a smaller section of the thermal image to be examined in greater apparent detail.

The stepless digital zoom control allows magnification to be adjusted smoothly.

Increasing digital magnification narrows the visible area and does not increase the native resolution of the thermal detector.

The RICO 2 H50R incorporates an integrated Class 1 laser rangefinder with a manufacturer-stated maximum measuring distance of 1,200 metres.

This allows users to obtain distance information directly through the scope without requiring a separate handheld rangefinder.

NocPix specifies ranging accuracy of approximately ±1 metre under suitable conditions.

Actual rangefinding performance depends on target reflectivity, weather, viewing angle and distance.

The rangefinder also provides distance information for the scope's built-in ballistic calculation system.

The RICO 2 H50R includes ballistic calculation functionality designed to work alongside its integrated laser rangefinder.

When suitable ballistic information has been configured, the system can use measured distance to calculate an estimated aiming correction.

Correct zeroing, accurate ballistic data and appropriate verification are essential for meaningful results.

Ballistic calculation is an additional aid rather than a replacement for proper equipment setup and responsible use.

The RICO 2 H50R features a high-resolution 2560 × 2560 AMOLED display.

The display presents the processed thermal image, reticle, rangefinder information and on-screen menus.

The scope provides approximately 60mm eye relief and dioptre adjustment from -5D to +5D.

The high-resolution display is designed to provide a detailed and comfortable viewing experience during extended observation.

The RICO 2 H50R offers selectable thermal colour palettes, allowing users to adjust the image presentation according to viewing conditions and personal preference.

Available viewing options include white-hot, black-hot and additional colour presentations.

Picture-in-picture functionality allows an enlarged section of the thermal image to be displayed while retaining a wider view of the surrounding scene.

Additional image settings allow contrast and detail presentation to be adjusted.

The RICO 2 H50R uses a removable NocPix IBP-5 rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack rated at 4,400mAh.

The UK package includes one rechargeable IBP-5 battery and one compatible IBC-5 battery charger.

This is a dedicated battery system and is not interchangeable with the standard removable 18650 batteries used by the NocPix ACE and BOLT ranges.

NocPix specifies an operating time of up to approximately 5.5 hours under reference test conditions.

Actual runtime depends on ambient temperature, display settings, Wi-Fi, recording and laser rangefinder usage.

The scope supports compatible charging through its magnetic charging connection and USB Type-C interface.

Additional compatible IBP-5 battery packs can be purchased separately for extended operation.

The RICO 2 H50R includes 32GB of internal storage for photographs and video recordings.

Recording functions include standard video capture, audio recording and recoil-activated video recording.

Wi-Fi connectivity supports communication with compatible mobile devices and NocPix app functions.

The scope also provides USB Type-C and magnetic charging connections.

The RICO 2 H50R features a durable housing designed for demanding outdoor conditions.

Its IP67 rating provides protection against dust ingress and temporary water immersion under the conditions specified by the rating.

The manufacturer specifies recoil resistance up to 6,000 joules and an operating temperature range of -20°C to +50°C.

The scope measures approximately 296 × 78 × 76mm and weighs approximately 926g.

Correct mounting, suitable battery care and routine maintenance remain important for reliable operation.

The RICO 2 L42R is the more accessible model, while the H50R provides higher native thermal resolution and a larger objective lens.

The H50R is better suited to customers who prioritise higher-resolution thermal imaging and longer-distance observation.

The L42R offers the core RICO 2 features at a more accessible price.

Both the H50R and H75R use 640 × 512 thermal detectors, but the H75R features a larger 75mm objective lens.

The H50R offers a more versatile field of view for mixed-distance observation.

The H75R is designed for customers who prioritise higher starting magnification and longer-distance thermal observation.
