Helicopter Simulation Validation Using Flight Data.

Abstract

The paper describes a joint NASA/Army effort to perform a systematic ground-based piloted simulation validation assessment. The best available mathematical model for the subject helicopter (UH-60A Black Hawk) was programmed for real-time operation. Flight data were obtained to validate the math model, and to develop models for the pilot control strategy while performing mission-type tasks. The validated mathe model will be combined with motion and visual systems to perform ground based simulation during April of 1983. Comparisons of the control strategy obtained in flight with that obtained on the simulator will be used as the basis for assessing the fidelity of the results obtained in the simulator. (Author)
