PISTOL-GRIP CYCLIC
Ergonomic grips incorporate twoposition trigger switches for intercom and transmit. Pilot-side grip features buttons for convenient switching of COM frequencies.

R22 BETA I The is a two place, light utility helicopter with responsive handling and quick maneuverability. Powered by a Lycoming O-360 four-cyclinder engine, the R22s proven reliability, low maintenance, and low operating costs make it ideal for a variety of applications. A powder-coated steel-tube structure gives the R22 a rigid yet lightweight airframe, while the aerodynamic fuselage optimizes airspeed and fuel economy. With a twobladed rotor system, the R22 requires only one-third the hangar space of a multi-bladed helicopter.

ROBINSON R22 BETA II

FEATURES
LYCOMING O-360 ENGINE is derated to
131 horsepower for take-off and 124 for cruise at 2652 RPM, giving the engine long life and unmatched reliability.

AUTOMATIC CLUTCH ENGAGEMENT


simplifies the starting procedure and reduces the possibility of overspeed during startup.

CARBURETOR HEAT ASSIST enhances


safety and reduces pilot workload by automatically adding carb heat when the collective is lowered and reducing carb heat when the collective is raised.

TRI-HINGE MAIN ROTOR HUB eliminates


lag hinges, dampers, and hydraulic struts. Blades have a stainless steel spar at the leading edge which resists erosion. Droop stops prevent excessive main rotor teetering while stopping or starting under normal operating conditions.

VOICE-ACTIVATED INTERCOM eliminates


the need to use intercom switches during doors-on flights. Floor and hand intercom switches are included for doors-off operations.

MAINTENANCE is simplified, requiring


only oil changes between 100-hour inspections. Main and tail rotor drive systems use maintenance-free flexible couplings in place of universal joints or gear couplings. Primary controls are actuated by push-pull tubes and bell cranks, eliminating cables and pulleys. Teflon-lined bearings eliminate periodic lubrication requirements.

ROTOR BRAKE allows the pilot to stop


the rotor quickly, reducing shutdown time and the risk of injury to ground personnel and passengers.

GROUND HANDLING is made easy with ground handling wheels. A tow cart adaptor is included for use with Robinsons optional Electric Tow Cart. STORAGE under each seat allows for
carry-on bags, briefcases, and personal belongings.

TIME BETWEEN OVERHAUL (TBO)


Properly maintained, the R22 has an approved engine and airframe TBO of 2200 hours or 12 years. All life-limited components have approved service lives of at least 2200 hours or 12 years.

AIR VENTS in the cabin provide fresh air for pilot and passenger.
