R66

Reliable, economical and easy to maintain.

R66s are 5-seated, have a two-bladed rotor system, T-bar cyclic and the latest in Robinson technology including streamlined instrument panels, energy absorbing seats and crashworthy bladder fuel tanks. Distinguished by the spacious 300 lb baggage compartment and the Rolls Royce RR300 turboshaft engine that operates Jet A fuel and offers increased reserve power, additional payload and improved altitude performance. Hydraulic controls eliminate feedback forces and provide responsive handling.

Engine: Roll Royce RR300 Turbine

Horsepower: 300 shp turboshaft

Max Gross Weight: 2700 lb (1225 kg)

Fuel Capacity: 493 lb (224 kg)

Cruise Speed At Max Gross Weight: Up to 110 kts (204 km/h)

Maximum range: 350nm / 650 km

Maximum Altitude: 14,000 ft

R44 Cadet

The economy of a small helicopter without sacrificing the power and performance of a large helicopter.

The 2-seater Cadet has the same airframe, rotor system and Lycoming O-540 engine as the proven R44 Raven I. The differences are the cargo reconfigured aft compartment, the maximum gross weight is reduced to 2200 lb and the engine power is derated to 210 take-off and 185 continuous. The lower weight and derated power provide increased performance margins at high altitudes and lengthens the time between overhaul to 2400 hours.

Engine: Lycoming O-540

Horsepower: 210 for takeoff, 185 continuous

Max Gross Weight: 2200 lb (998 kg)

Fuel Capacity: 177 lb (80 kg)

Cruise Speed At Max Gross Weight: Up to 107 kts (198 km/h)

Maximum range: 300 nm / 550 km

Maximum Altitude: 14,000 ft

R44 Raven I / Clipper I

The R44’s aerodynamic fuselage optimizes airspeed and fuel economy. Hydraulic controls eliminate feedback forces and provide responsive handling. A low tail-rotor tip speed, newly designed muffler and large cambered tail reduce flyover noise.

Engine: Lycoming O-540

Horsepower: 225 for takeoff, 205 continuous

Max Gross Weight: 2400 lb (1089 kg)

Fuel Capacity: 177 lb (80 kg)

Cruise Speed At Max Gross Weight: Up to 108 kts (200 km/h)

Maximum range: 300nm / 550 km

Maximum Altitude: 14,000 ft

R44 Raven II / Clipper II

Favoring high temperatures and high humidity, the II model offers more power in takeoff when compared to the I. It also uses the more recent Robinson injection technology, with no need to worry about the carburetor heater. The R44’s aerodynamic fuselage optimizes airspeed and fuel economy. Hydraulic controls eliminate feedback forces and 

Engine: Lycoming IO-540

Horsepower: 245 for takeoff, 205 continuous

Max Gross Weight: 2500 lb (1134 kg)

Fuel Capacity: 177 lb (80 kg)

Cruise Speed At Max Gross Weight: Up to 109 kts| 106 kts (202 km | 196 km)

Maximum range: 300 nm / 550 km

Maximum Altitude: 14,000 ft

R22 Beta II

In over 30 years this two-seat helicopter is a proven workhorse, delivering exceptional performance in a variety of applications. The R22 has a two-bladed rotor system, T-bar cyclic and the latest in Robinson technology including crashworthy bladder fuel tanks.A powder-coated steel tube structure provides a light yet rigid airframe while the aircraft’s aerodynamic fuselage optimizes airspeed and fuel economy. The R22 is powered by Lycoming’s proven O-360 engine that is derated to provide reserve power and better performance at high altitudes and in hot weather.

Engine: Lycoming O-360

Horsepower: 131 for takeoff, 124 continuous

Max Gross Weight: 1370 lb (622 kg)

Fuel Capacity: 101 lb (46 kg)

Cruise Speed At Max Gross Weight: Up to 96 kts (178 km/h)

Maximum range: 250 nm / 460 km

Maximum Altitude: 14,000 ft
