Robinson provisions add 7 lb to the empty weight of the helicopter and include reinforcement and
attach points on the windshield bow, roof, and chin, with low-profile deflectors near the ground
handling ball and forward landing gear struts. MSRP $4,200.

Magellan’s R66 WSPS, complete with wire deflectors and cutting blades adds 16 lb. to the empty
weight of the helicopter. The system is available as a kit compatible with Robinson factory-installed
