Discover the New Stabilizer from Robinson Helicopter Company: Innovation and Stability in the Air
At Aerotoscana , we’re thrilled to launch our new blog section with groundbreaking news that will elevate the flying experience for Robinson helicopter pilots everywhere. As partners and content creators for Robinson Helicopter Company , we’ve had the unique opportunity to test the new stabilizer introduced in 2024. Now, we’re excited to share our in-depth findings and firsthand experience with you.
A Qualitative Leap in Stability
A Game-Changing Stabilizer for All Robinson Models
The new stabilizer, compatible with all Robinson helicopter models, has already proven to be a game-changer in enhancing in-flight stability. At Aerotoscana , we installed it on our R66 and took it on a challenging 45-hour expedition across the diverse and dynamic landscapes of Chilean Patagonia.
Felipe Reitz, pilot and founding partner of Aerotoscana, shared his impressions:
“We installed the new stabilizer and tested it during a 45-hour expedition through Chilean Patagonia. The results were convincing: we immediately felt greater stability at high speeds, in windy areas, turbulent air, and in both cold and hot environments. High-speed descents felt more stable. Also, with a tailwind on landing, we noticed greater stability. On this expedition, 13 Robinson helicopters participated: 6 R66 models and 7 R44 models, ours being the only one equipped with the new stabilizer. It was evident how our aircraft maintained superior stability compared to the others, especially in adverse conditions where the other helicopters showed constant tail movements, while we did not. Many flights were performed in formation and clearly demonstrated what we have pointed out. For us, the stabilizer has proven to be essential, significantly improving stability and control in extreme cold and hot conditions, and evidently also in normal conditions.”
Innovation and Safety on Every Flight
Enhanced Performance and Safety Benefits
In our latest Instagram post in collaboration with Robinson Helicopter Company, we highlighted some key advantages:
More than 100 hours of flight with the NEW STABILIZER and the results are AMAZING! 🚁⚙️💨
🔹 Significantly reduces right bank in low-G flight: Reduces the pilot’s tendency to overcorrect, resulting in increased safety (but does not prevent mast strike).
🔹 Superior Stability at High Speeds: Enables more precise handling during high-speed flights.
🔹 Excellent Performance in Turbulence: Provides a smoother flight experience in turbulent conditions.
This stabilizer brings pilots greater confidence and control, whether navigating challenging environments or cruising at high speeds. We’ve rigorously tested and can confidently recommend it for all Robinson pilots. It truly is a marvel in the air.
Robinson Helicopter Company’s new stabilizer not only improves flight stability, but also increases pilot safety and confidence in various conditions. At Aerotoscana, we highly recommend this upgrade to all Robinson helicopter pilots.
