PRESS RELEASE
Innovative rotor blade monitoring on twin-rotor UAV: A new era in UAV technology with Certo Aerospace and Helitune
We are thrilled to have hosted Helitune CMTG at our Frome flight test facility in glorious weather last week. We are starting a new collaborative piece of work looking at rotor blade behaviours during flight operations on our 600kg MTOW co-axial UAS.
This collaborative effort will pave the way for new and exciting capabilities, such as monitoring blade-tip flight paths in real-time during flight manoeuvres. This new technique will be used in various aircraft and environmental conditions, allowing us to validate flight envelope limits without solely relying on computer simulations or ground test rigs.
