Hardware-in-the-Loop flight sim

Closed-loop validation of the flight-control software against a JSBSim flight-dynamics model, with MIL, SIL and HIL to test control behaviour before it flies.

The idea is to catch control-behaviour problems in simulation, where they are cheap, long before anything is risked on real hardware in the air.

Key results

• MIL, SIL and HIL ladder against a JSBSim 6-DOF flight-dynamics model
• Closed-loop validation of control behaviour before flight
• Host-buildable GNC core for fast iteration off-target
• Data-driven aircraft registry for multiple airframes
