Those with newer models of the R44 Raven II (things that are not included in the video): add 8 seconds of engine prime before starting the engine with mixture rich, then return the mixture back to lean. Start the engine and then move the mixture to rich again when the engine starts. Oh, and don't forget to switch on the takeoff light before taxi or takeoff. Thanks for this video!

Great video! You guys should do one showing the preflight inspection on the R44 as well! I'd love to see that, as well as the checklists you use since I'll be training there in a few months.

Nice video, thanks for posting. One question though: I noticed that your outside camera was mounted on the left-hand side. I remember my instructor telling me something about never having something mounted on the left side, in case it comes of and flies straight into the tail rotor. What say you? Thanks.

Which procedure is better - start with carb heat (less power) or start without (more power) if during the start procedure the temperature is outside yellow range?
