Schweizer S300CBi

The S-300 is light utility helicopter  originally produced by Hughes Helicopters, as a development of the Hughes 269. Later manufactured by Schweizer Aircraft, the basic design has been in production for almost 50 years. The single, three-bladed main rotor and piston-powered S-300 is mostly used as a cost-effective platform for training and agriculture. This model is a replica of  the S300Cbi, a fuel injected version of the 300CB that alleviates carburetor icing concerns in colder temperatures.
