Abstract:

This report described the Helicopter In-Flight Validation System HELIVALS. The system monitors all six degrees of freedom of the helicopter flight control position to include cyclic, collective and anti-torque pedals along with airspeed, altitude both barometric and absolute, and geographic position. These data are recorded digitally on a magnetic tape recorder mounted in the helicopter. The recorded data is then processed and reduced in a ground station.
