Device for training of helicopter driving
The invention
  • The problem to be solved:
    To invent a simple training helicopter
  • Definition:
    This device serves simulation purposes, the helicopter itself is balanced with a counterweight. It moves in a closed routing, able to move vertically and horizontally around the supporting mast, which is firmly fixed in a concrete foundation. This device is motor-powered, aileron and pitching control is provided through a steering device.
  • Presentation:
    By applying the principles of the real helicopter flight it has an advantage over the electronic simulators used in entertainment parks, which are based on hydraulic components. It moves together with the driver in three dimensions. Stability of the cabin is ensured by suspension above centre of the gravity. It takes you very close to the experience of real flight. The automatic movement of the weight requires 5-6 kg mass. Operation of the automatic control is activated by closing the door of the helicopter.
    It could be used for training and playing purposes equipped with a low-powered engine.

  • Application: amusement parks, simulator for training purposes, as a toy in model size. It is a good possibility for the re-use of helicopters withdrawn from flight service.
  • Advantages: Simple and cheap solution
  • Stage of development: Model
  • Documentation available: Yes
