This is the newest PRA/College team project. Having dyslexia it not helpful in writing to other humans who perception of reality of the written word is so much different than mine.
Zero Gravity Trailer
Objective:
Allow rotorcraft to be towed on a trailer with the blades on as if parked. Creating the smoothest road in the world using a flight simulator hydraulic ram system fast enough to remove a 6" pothole impact while driving. Tie the nose and main wheels down in adjustable wheel chocks in the cradle with the blades supported on poles at each end. It is a sophisticated shock absorber that removes all of the impacts of shocks and vibrations possible.
Description:
A cradle that fits on an existing trailer or constructed as part of a new floor of a home built trailer. Raise the cradle 6" with rams. When it hit a 3" pothole, the cradle moves in the reverse of the impact force canceling out the G impacts on the rotorcraft and blades. Assuring no flexing of the rotorcraft, mast, bearings, and blades elimination flexing metal fatigue while towing. It is so much worse than flying them.
Deliverables:
Cradle with adjustable wheel chocks and removable blade extension arms for those who do not wish to tow with the blades attached. Sensors in the front of the truck to warn what is coming and one on the cradle with a hydraulic or magnetic ram system that runs off of a car 12 vote system.
