Abstract

This paper presents the developments incorporated in a low–order simplified model of helicopter motion in order to devise a Flight and Navigation Procedures Trainer. A minimum–complexity rotorcraft model is used as the baseline for developing a simple and computationally efficient flight simulator, which runs in real–time on relatively inexpensive facilities. In order to fulfill qualification standards for the simulator, a series of features are added to the baseline model so as to deal with all flight conditions possibly encountered during vehicle operation. These additional features include engine model and governor, a simple undercarriage and ground–effect model, the representation of vortex ring state and icing phenomena. The architecture of both hardware and software for the simulator is presented and discussed.
