Robinson R44 Helicopter Sales

Reliability.
Responsive handling.
Altitude performance.

These three attributes make the R44 helicopter series ideal for private, business and utility applications.

A powder-coated steel-tube structure gives the R44 a strong, yet lightweight airframe while a streamlined fuselage enhances air speed and fuel economy. The R44 comfortably seats four adults, and passenger views are unobstructed due to the R44's open cabin design. A low tail-rotor speed, heavy-duty muffler, and large cambered tail decrease flyover noise, resulting in a community-friendly helicopter.

R44 Raven II

The high-performance R44 Raven II has a Lycoming IO-540 fuel injected, angle-valve, tuned-induction engine, which eliminates the need for carburetor heat. The standard 28-volt electrical system ensures good starting performance in hot or cold weather, and provides additional electrical power for optional equipment. Aerodynamic rotor blade tips reduce the 500-foot flyover noise by nearly one decibel.

R44 Raven I

Equipped with a Lycoming O-540 carbureted engine, the R44 Raven I offers a balance between performance and affordability. Raven I features carburetor heat assist that enhances safety and reduces pilot workload by automatically adjusting carburetor heat in response to power changes by the pilot.
