Engineering Flight Simulator
The Engineering Flight Simulator is a flexible development platform for many engineering applications. For instance, models developed with Heli-Dyn+® can be flown in this environment.
While different types of helicopters can be simulated instantly, it also helps engineers and students better understand the flight dynamics and handling qualities of helicopters.
The simulator features affordable but functional hardware, real-time software component integration, an easy-to-use Graphical User Interface, reconfigurable cockpit displays, X-plane visuals, etc.
The simulator is also integrated with Matlab/Simulink so that control loops or additional dynamic models developed in Matlab/Simulink can interact with Heli-Dyn+®’s export model and all can run in real-time on the simulator. The user can tune, start/stop the Matlab/Simulink models without interrupting the simulation. This makes it a great development environment for generating and tuning new models in Matlab/Simulink.
