Robinson's popular R44 was upgraded as the Raven I in 2000 and given hydraulically assisted controls, elastometric tail rotor bearings and adjustable pedals. Like the earlier R44 Astro, it is powered by a 260 hp Lycoming O-540 engine driving a two-bladed main rotor. It has seating for four and there is a dedicated Newscopter version for media use.
