Book excerpt: This fifth simulation experiment, using the U.S. Navy X-22A variable stability V/STOL aircraft, was undertaken to generate data for the development to flying qualities and advanced flight control system design criteria for the visual shipboard landing task. Since a broad range of flying qualities were simulated, actual landings were not performed because of flight safety considerations. Instead, a discrete three-dimensional position tracking task, presented to the pilot on a Head-Up-Display (HUD), was devised to evoke pilot control and stabilization activity similar to that in the actual shipboard environment. A microwave landing system with precision ranging capability served as the guidance sensor for both the translational rate flight control system mechanizations and for the HUD tracking information. A total of 111 evaluations were performed of various horizontal and vertical translational rate flight control system dynamics. The primary results of the program defined regions of satisfactory and acceptable flying qualities as functions of velocity command gain and the time constant of velocity response. The limits on command gain and time constant for satisfactory flying qualities indicated by this experiment are considerably smaller than those determined in ground simulator experiments. (Author).

Download or read book Dynamics Control and Flying Qualities of V STOL Aircraft written by James A. Franklin and published by AIAA. This book was released on 2002 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annotation This text presents the principles of dynamics and control for vertical, short take-off landing (V/STOL) aircraft. It is the first book of its kind. It is intended for graduate students and professionals in aeronautics who have knowledge of linear systems analysis, aircraft static, dynamic stability, and control. The text begins with a discussion of V/STOL aircraft operations. Control strategies, equations of motion, longitudinal and lateral-directional flying qualities in both hover and forward flight, wind and turbulence responses, and control augmentation and cockpit displays are covered. Specific examples of the YAV-8B Harrier and XV-15 Tilt Rotor aircraft are used to illustrate actual V/STOL dynamic and control characteristics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication presents materials that constituted the lectures presented by the author as part of Course AA 234 Dynamics, Control, and Flying Qualities of V/STOL Aircraft that was taught in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at Stanford University. It covers representative operations of vertical and short takeoff and landing (V/STOL) aircraft, a discussion of the pilot's strategy in controlling these aircraft, the equations of motion pertinent to V/STOL tasks, and their application in the analysis of longitudinal and lateral-directional control in hover and forward flight. Following that development, which applies to the characteristics of the basic airframe and propulsion system, the text concludes with a discussion of the contributions of control augmentation in specific flight tasks and of the integration of modern electronic displays with these controls.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study has been undertaken to define hand-ling qualities criteria for V/STOL aircraft. With the current military requirements for helicopters and airplanes as a framework, modifications and additions were made for conversion to a preliminary set of V/STOL requirements using a broad background of flight experience and pilots' comments from VTOL and STOL aircraft, BLC (boundary-layer-control) equipped aircraft, variable stability aircraft, flight simulators and landing approach studies. The report contains a discussion of the reasoning behind and the sources of information leading to suggested requirements. The results of the study indicate that the majority of V/STOL requirements can be defined by modifications to the helicopter and/or airplane requirements by appropriate definition of reference speeds. Areas where a requirement is included but where the information is felt to be inadequate to establish a firm quantitative requirement include the following: Control power and damping relationships about all axes for various sizes and types of aircraft; control power, sensitivity, d-amping and response for height control; dynamic longitudinal and dynamic lateral- directional stability in the transition region, including emergency operation; hovering steadiness; acceleration and deceleration in transition; descent rates and flight-path angles in steep approaches, and thrust margin for approach.
