Abstract

This paper presents a practical application of the construction and simulation of a display interface for a flight data monitor. The exercise has an analytical-synthetic approach and has been carried out on the Skiron-USB prototype aircraft, designed by the University of San Buenaventura, in order to complement the taxonomy of avionics instruments in the cockpit through the implementation of electronic flight suitcases. The inclusion of the system has been achieved by determining the technological parameters necessary for its integration in the future. To this end, the flight data system has been defined according to the conditions and missions of the aircraft, establishing the basis of intercommunication through an arrangement of circuits between an Arduino UNO board and the Stewart platform, controlled by a joystick. Depending on the data transmission and readout, the appropriate display tool has been proposed. As a result of the academic study, the attitude parameters have been identified in relation to the flight phase developed in the Skiron air vehicle, a Conmute multipurpose model according to design specifications (FAR 23, transport category STOL).
