Design of a Powered Wheel Kit for UH/AH Helicopters

Abstract

The powered wheel kit consists of the standard unpowered ground handling wheel set, which has been modified by application of a power package. Each wheel is driven by a two-cycle engine and hydraulic drive unit. The kit was designed and fabricated, but only brief functional check-out tests were conducted. The task has been reassigned to the Aviation Systems Command for further testing.
