Robinson R-44 demo from Maxim Sotnikov, Konakovo Russia

Helicopter World Cup is a very special event where pilots compare their knowledge in different competitions.
The Russian stage was held in Konakovo Aerodrom, Tver region.
The race contains 4 different competitions, navigation, precision, fender and slalom.
The Robinson R44 is a four-seat light helicopter produced by the Robinson Helicopter Company since 1992. Based on the company's two-seat Robinson R22, the R44 features hydraulically assisted flight controls. The R44 was first flown on 31 March 1990.
A Helicopter World Cup egy nagyon különleges esemény, ahol helikopter pilóták mérhetik össze tudásukat különböző versenyszámokban. A verseny négy különböző versenyszámot tartalmaz, navigációt, precíziós repülést, fendert és szlalomot.
Az orosz fordulót a Konakovói Repülőtéren rendezik évek óta, a Tver régióban.
A Robinson R-44 egy 4 üléses, kétlapátos helikopter a Robinson gyártól. Alapvető konstrukciója a kétüléses Robinson R-22 oktatóhelikopterből alakult ki. Az R-44-es 1990. március 31-én repült először az Egyesült Államokban.

A very ‘gentle’ smooth display - suited to the 44’s unique ‘features’.

[@8romeo650]

I did that with a 212 Huey back in the days. The 44 really looked good going through those maneuvers. You gotta love choppers.

And for my next trick... A negative G pushover!

[@josephfarmer8485]

The r44 is always piston and the r66 always turbine

The Robinson R44, fastest helicopter ever. 😁

@Jesse Mitchell I disagree.

@@alexandermiller5034 When I had my first flying lesson at Sywell, I went up in the R44 and it was quite easy to fly. Again, I disagree.

[@alexandermiller5034]

@@greatbritishscarface7464 oohk cool. No I was speaking about the Mast bumping.. as in its easier to happen on this model

[@greatbritishscarface7464]

@@alexandermiller5034 Well in Flight Simulator, the Just Flight R44 can make violent tight turns, realistically, do you think that causes mast-bumping?
