Abstract

The paper presents the design and performance of the flight stabilisation system onboard computer developed in Łukasiewicz Research Network – Institute of Aviation. The presented unit is an electronic block performing automatic flight stabilisation of an aeroplane using trimmers. It was designed based on the launch platform PZL-130 Orlik aircraft requirements. The article contains the unit’s hardware and software design description, unit performance, tests results and conclusions with improvements possibilities.
