This paper presents the hardware-in-the-loop simulations of a hybrid flight
control system for a light aircraft consisting of mechanical, electromechanical
and digital components. The simulation was performed at a light aircraft
simulation lab SimStar at Brno University of Technology. The aim was the
validation and verification of the operational suitability of the flight control
system's peripherals - electromechanical actuators, autopilot mode selection
panel and a primary flight display. The investigated peripheral devices were
connected to SimStar's network using CANaero communication protocol. The
simulations were focused on the real time automatic flight control modes
operational scenarios.
