Recently, the beehive aerospace test team received a mission and went to a test base hundreds of miles away to carry out the hanging flight test. Compared with the general ground environment test and ground performance test, the hanging flight test of scientific research products is closer to the actual application scenario, and it is a necessary link in the performance test of airborne scientific research products.
In order to meet the test, the honeycomb aerospace test team focused on the functional testing and debugging of the product, and the stability of the work under extreme conditions such as strong wind and extreme heat is the most important. Every aspect of the product is further improved and tested. After several months of dedicated research and development, every part of the product has accumulated the painstaking efforts of the R & D personnel.
The hc-140 oil powered fixed wing UAV system is used in this flight service. It is a fixed wing UAV product with large load and long endurance. The whole aircraft is made of carbon fiber composite material. The maximum takeoff weight is 150kg, the payload is 30kg, the fastest flight speed is 144km / h, the maximum endurance is 6 hours, and the maximum flight height is 5000 meters. It has the advantages of stable flight, easy operation, easy operation, and easy operation High flight efficiency.
In order to get intuitive and detailed test data for all aspects of the product performance, the test team has formulated a detailed test plan in the early stage, from flight route, target location, target construction, product inspection, maintenance, security, logistics support, each link is strictly controlled to ensure that there is no mistake in each process.
At the same time, in order to enable the cooperative units to better cooperate with the plan of the test team, the test team also conducted training for pilots participating in the flight test, and exchanged details. The content is specific to every step of product operation, measures to deal with small probability events, and disposal for different situations. After training, pilots have been able to advance and retreat orderly and achieve the cooperation requirements.
This test service uses two fixed wings for formation flying at high altitude, and realizes various formation flying in the air. The main technologies of formation flying are data communication between aircrafts, formation dynamic adjustment, real-time position control, etc. in the flight process, real-time monitoring of any sudden situation may occur.
In order to make the preparation for many days pay off, all the staff of the test team are fighting in the front line of the test day and night. On the one hand, the time and information are synchronized; on the other hand, it is convenient to monitor the product situation in real time. Field test group also encountered many difficulties in the process of the test, leaving aside the sun and heat, as well as airspace and wind constraints. The leader of the honeycomb aerospace test team gave full play to the exemplary role of taking the lead, daring to fight and not afraid of difficulties. The problems on the scene were solved one by one, and the team spirit was embodied.
With the huge roar of the engine, the product that has been intensively researched and developed was carried on the plane for the first time, full of the hope of the whole team, and went up into the sky. The whole flight process has few twists and turns, the product is in good condition, and the aircraft returns smoothly. For the first flight, the overall functional indicators basically meet the design expectations, and the data of all aspects of the product can be collected smoothly, and the first flight is successful.
After the field test, the members of the project team kept on analyzing the collected data. Because the next flight time is tight, the task is heavy, and the test data is large and detailed, the workload of data analysis and processing is very large. Problem analysis, software optimization iteration, simulation analysis, ground verification and so on need to be solved. If we don't have a detailed plan, we will be able to carry out the plan smoothly from the early morning to the next.
With the joint efforts of R & D, test and cooperation teams, the test team overcame many difficulties, optimized and adjusted the products, and successfully completed the test and flight service.
