This is the second part of the report titled "A New Running Test Facility for the Study of Flight Dynamics" [1]. A support system for free flight of a model aircraft simulated to V/STOL plane or helicopter has been constructed as an additional equipment for the running test facility. The support system is consisted of a free-flight follower and a data reduction system. The free-flight follower can be carried on a carriage moving on a track and supports the model as it can fly either freely or in partly constrained freedom. The flight path and attitude angles of the model during flight can be sensed with potentiometers on the support system and recorded in oscillograms or stored in memories of a miniature computer through an A-D converter, a part of or all of which are boarded on the carriage as the data reduction system. By analyzing the data the aero and/or flight dynamic characteristics of the model will be obtained., 資料番号: SA2400852000
