Abstract

The design and installation of control force measurement device for quick evaluation flight test was difficult due to not enough time and fund available. Three control force indication devices were assembled and tested. They were spring balance, control force indication glove and FlexiForce indicator. The flight test results showed that all the three devices could be used for quick control force measurement. The principle of control force indication glove was innovative. However, for the spring balance, the undirected control of the aircraft was abnormal and it might influence the quality opinion of the pilot on the handling quality of the aircraft. The load sensor on the control force indication glove must be improved. The reliability of the FlexiForce indicator also should be improved.
