FLIGHT SIMULATOR WITH FULL ROLL ROTATION CAPABILITY

摘要

A flight simulator includes an occupant station (10) having seating (18) for one occupant and operating controls (20) for the occupant. A rotating axle assembly (30) is attached at one end to the occupant station and at an opposite end to a support frame (32). The rotating axle assembly accommodates rotation of the occupant station through at least 360 DEG about the roll axis. The flight simulator includes a control computer (70) for receiving electrical signals from the control input, applying defined rules of motion, and for providing an output for control of the motor.
