Can active control help tiltrotor aircraft fly faster?A new study at the University of Bath is investigating how rapidly deploying spoiler-like devices, called mini-tabs, could help future eVTOL designs fly faster. Mini-tabs could aerodynamically counteract the damaging vibrations caused by whirl flutter – a catastrophic instability that occurs at high flight speeds. Maxon has provided the motion solution to test the effectiveness of mini-tabs on a novel wind tunnel test rig. |
