R22 / R44
Hi there,

any of you chaps out there tried it with an R22 or R44?

We do quite a lot of no-flare auto's where you come in at 40-50 KIAS, bring your rotor-rpm up to maximum and do a full touch-down. This works quite well even in a light piston.

But trying a no-speed in an R22 would seem very hairy at best to me.

So anyone out there who gave it a try?

Keep the rotor in the green
