The electrodynamic heatshield technique is a promising technique which can replace the current heat-shield system. In addition, the technique can provide us a way to maneuver the vehicle without moving parts. So far, much research has been devoted to this technique. Nevertheless the technology is remained to be verified by a flight experiment which is necessary since the existing ground facility can not provide the flight condition. The feasibility of the flight experiment in a ballistic flight is critically discussed. Especially the super-conducting magnetic filed generator and the measurement system onboard the vehicle are discussed in detail.
