Development of a new flutter testing technique using a towed dynamic airplane model equipped with an automatic stabilizing system: Experimental and calculated dynamic stability characteristics for speeds up to 200 mph
Description:
Report presenting testing of a towed airplane model in the 19-foot pressure tunnel in conjunction with the development of a flutter testing technique. The model was equipped with an autopilot to keep the model flying straight and level in the tunnel while restrained only in drag. Results regarding period and cycles to damp to half amplitude, time histories, and motions of the flexible wing model are provided.
