An improved helicopter flight dynamic model suited to evaluate the flying qualities of a single rotor helicopter was built for UH-60A, including trim calculation and stability and controllability derivatives. On this foundation, the open-loop flying qualities of the UH-60A helicopter were studied by using MIL-F-83300. According to the requirement, the change of the UH-60A dynamic response and the control characteristics were computed and compared when some typical aerodynamic configuration parameters were adjusted, the influences of the aerodynamic configuration parameters on flying qualities and the sensitivities of flying qualities with respect to the parameters were analyzed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
