Evaluation of and Operational Procedures for a Helicopter Simulation System Utilizing an Integrated Electronic Instrument Display.

Abstract

This report discusses the evaluation and documentation of an integrated electronic instrument display designed to investigate stability and control of a helicopter during precision hover operations. The equations of motion, developed from the Kaman SH-2F Seasprite helicopter, were implemented by a hybrid computer system and displayed by a graphics processor. A complete procedural checklist, including troubleshooting methods, is included in this report. This helicopter simulation system can be used for further research in the development of optimal heads-up display configurations as well as analyses of instability caused by pilot induced oscillations in the hover flight regime.
