Abstract :
Under Navy Contract NOa(S) 12151, Cornell Aeronatical Laboratory J
has been conducting a research program aimed at evolving concepts of artificial
stabilization and control devices which will improve the flight and handling
characteristics of the helicopter. The over-all program was conducted in four
phases: (I) consideration of operational problems, (II) analysis of stabiliz.-
.tion and control problems, (III) flight test instrumentation and data analysis,
and (IV) study of new devices.
