Project 4: HeliFlight-R
Summary of Services Performed: Develop a reconfigurable simulator to support engineering
applications
ART has developed HeliFlight-R, a reconfigurable simulator that can be coupled with
FLIGHTLAB flight dynamics models to support pilot-in-the-loop engineering analysis. The
initial system was purchased by the U.S. Navy at Patuxent River, MD to support planning of
shipboard landing tests. The HeliFlight-R system is being delivered with two different flight
dynamics models and cockpit configurations; the SH-60 and the V-22. The Navy will use it to
simulate planned ship/helicopter trials to make the most efficient use of available flight test time.
A second HeliFlight–R system is being developed for a major Aerospace University and will be
used to support Handling Qualities evaluation of new European aircraft such as the European tilt
rotor.
HeliFlight-R includes a 12 ft. diameter dome with three SXGA projectors capable of rendering a
210 x 60 degree field of view. A set of four axis control loaders are used to provide the aircraftspecific
control feel characteristics and LCD displays are used to display computer generated
instruments and MultiFunction displays for the reconfigurable cockpit. The system for the U.S.
Navy will include a Quantum3D Image Generator with a dynamic sea state and an LHA ship
display for shipboard landing work.
