F-18 Flight Control

Sponsored by NASA Dryden Flight Research Center


F-18

The objective is to flight test control laws designed by modern robust and nonlinear multivariable methods. The control laws will be implemented on Production Support Flight Control Computers (PSFCC), developed at Dryden.

This is a collaborative project with A. Sideris (UCI) and J. Carter (Dryden).
