The Rotor Systems Research Aircraft (RSRA) was flown in the airplane configuration. Eleven successful flights were made from May 8 to October 3, 1984. The takeoff and landing method was demonstrated and the resultant parameters were obtained. Control power data were obtained. In addition, main rotor hub drag, airplane configuration acoustics data, and aircraft stability data were obtained. Hub drag, acoustics, and stability will be separately reported in more detail. The tail rotor was installed for all tests.
