Helicopters <= 760 kg's (1,672 lb's)

I'm attempting to collate a list of helicopters that are less than or equal to 760kg's Max Take-Off Weight. They can be either single or dual seat, although I realise there will probably be nil 2 seaters in this weight range.

The list is for registration in Australia under RA-Aus registration.

Would anyone care to continue my list?

R22 - 635 kg's

Question

What do you guys think of those CH7s in terms of reliability? Would you fly in one? With the twin boom supports and such, they look like a big RC heli.

Schweizer 300C & CBi empty weight begins at 500kg but an instrument trainer is around 580kg. Max GW for a 300C is 930kg, max GW for a 300CBi is 794kg.

Data from http://www.sacusa.com/products/pdfs/300C_TechData.pdf - which incidentally has a photo of me flying my favourite ship at Rotors of the Rockies in Colorado
