R44s have a two-bladed rotor system, T-bar cyclic and the latest in Robinson technology including streamlined instrument panels and crashworthy bladder fuel tanks. 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.
Multi-role and configurable
Kishugu uses the Robinson R44, a single engine piston helicopter that is capable of carrying four persons and approximately 300 kg’s of cargo.
This helicopter is a durable machine that is widely used in South Africa for game work and aerial spraying. This helicopter is easily maintained and readily available.
