T4 Do yea pilot AS332s yourself??

I was up doing the lesson last sat in the 22, heading back we got pounded by very heavy rain, i was flying at the time, instuctor let me keep flying through it to see was i gona apply any abrupt movements to the cyclic when she was blowing about by the wind but i just kept the cyclic at were i had it before the rain hit us so all was good, but we couldn't see a dam thing for 5 mins or so. Anybody know if the R22's take kindly to heavy rain??
