Cole Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 22 has less time to react in case the stove goes out, S300 is more powerfull. This is what I do know for sure, everything else is hearsay. Cole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

volition Posted April 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 no, i don't want another debate. I just want to know the insight on the cbi300, because I'm thinking of getting my rating on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackmac Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Volition: You are going to spend a few thousand bucks getting a license, so, why not go to different schools and find out. It's called shopping around. Once YOU have decided, then you will be happy. It's called PPDM or Potential Pilot Decision Making.

volition Posted April 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 HEHEHE........i have a license, i just want to add a new rating, because r22 can't hold a passenger more then 240lbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norm Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 I just finished doing my training on a brand new 300 CBi :up: . I really like them, very stable, excellent visibility and great power for its size. I would suggest learning on one. But I have never even sat in a Robinson so I can't comment on them.

mtnhopper Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 I trained on a R22 6 years ago and it seemed like the way to go. But having said that I was at YXX a few days ago and there were a couple 300s buzzing around, Look like alot of fun to fly. I've heard good things about the 300s. But listen to blackmac YOU decide. Good Luck MH :up: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 I think Vertical Magazine did a head to head comparison of the two machines last year. Do some digging and see if you can find a back issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justfly Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 I think Vertical Magazine did a head to head comparison of the two machines last year. Do some digging and see if you can find a back issue. Looks like it was Issue #7 (see PAST ISSUES link at top of page) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
