Variable stability helicopter capable of altering its characteristics in three rotational degrees of freedom as well as heave or vertical degree of freedom was developed by NAE for V/STOL handling qualities research programs; vehicle used for simulator is light, single rotor Bell 47G-3B1 with maximum gross weight of 2950 lb and powered by turbo-supercharged engine; latter feature is useful in maintaining full engine power in summer months during prolonged hovering and low speed flight necessary to evaluate V/STOL characteristics; heart of simulation is analog computer elements which are described together with equipment; example of programming.
