Backdriving a full motion simulator using flight recorder data.

摘要

This report shows the process and describes the programs necessary to play back an incident in a full motion helicopter simulator based only on flight recorder data. This removes the dependence on programmed flight equations, thus eliminating modelling errors in extreme conditions or manoeuvers. The process involved also determines aircraft states which were not recorded on the flight recorder. The resulting simulator flight shows a good correlation with the original flight, with some expected deviations in position and accelerations due to the limited available information.
