FIXED WING, AIRPLANE, ROTORCRAFT, HELICOPTER, & eVTOL FLIGHT TESTING

DYNAMIC IN-FLIGHT TESTING FOR ROTORCRAFT VEHICLES

Testing Challenges:

  • Collecting physical measurements on aircraft including force, vibration, shock, strain, and temperature
  • Varied test scenarios: laboratory, sled, flight testing/in situ
  • Harsh test environments
  • Remote locations with limited or restricted comm access
  • Size, mass, and power constraints
  • Complex, time-intensive test setups
  • Costly and noisy slip rings for rotating applications
  • Long leads and costs, especially for custom solutions

DTS Key Features:

  • SWaP-optimized (size, weight & power) data acquisition units 
  • Embeds in the test article near the sensors, no long cable runs
  • Significantly reduces or eliminates the need for slip rings
  • High-shock rated, IP68 rated solutions available
  • MIL-STD rated systems for temperature, altitude, shock & vibration
  • Wide range of analog sensor support, plus built-in sensor options
  • Onboard memory and real-time streaming options
  • Standalone, network, or integrate into an existing FTI solution
  • COTS products; standard 4-6 week delivery
