Helicopter simulation technology: An Ames Research Center perspectiveThe total experience for evidence regarding the levels of motion and visual cueing fidelity required for handling-qualities research in ground-based simulators is reviewed. Positive contributions of cockpit motion were identified, but much remains to be learned regarding the sensitivities of individual control modes to cueing attenuation. A firmer understanding of the pilot's utilization of visual and motion cues is the key to more efficient use of simulation in helicopter control-systems research.
