Abstract

Two designs of a low-cost flight simulator for research, development and training
purposes are being presented in this paper. The first simulator has been designed
and built at the Brno University of Technology, Faculty of Information
Technologies. This simulator is based on a cockpit of a popular Evektor SportStar
light sport aircraft. The flight simulator designed at Rzeszow University of
Technology, Department of Avionics and Control, is based on the cabin of the M-15
aircraft. Both simulators support two operational modes. The first mode uses
a model of the flight dynamics delivered from an external, commercial or
open-source software. The second mode supports custom aircraft models and an
environment dynamics run in a selected real-time simulation. Open and modular
architecture of simulators allows for a rapid prototyping of new cockpit layouts
and design of intuitive flight control systems and user interfaces for the light
and ultra-light aircraft.
