FAA Compliant Control Loader Systems
A control loader that feels slightly off in aileron, elevator, rudder or trim can undermine an otherwise capable flight simulator. For operators pursuing qualification, and for OEMs building devices that must stand up to technical review, FAA compliant control loader systems are not a cosmetic feature. They are part of the training value, the engineering

6DOF Motion Base for NASA Artemis Testing – A Case Study
Application Overview One of the most demanding real‑world applications of a high‑fidelity motion base platform is closed‑loop avionics and navigation system testing. For NASA’s Artemis Space Launch System (SLS) program, a 6DOF Motion Base was used because precise motion replication was required to validate avionics behavior under dynamic conditions without introducing artificial disturbances or latency

Motion Base Platform: Understanding Non-Linear Dynamics
A non-linear motion base platform math model refers to the mathematical representation of a motion platform which is typically a Stewart platform or similar 6DOF system—where the relationship between actuator lengths and platform position/orientation is non-linear. This means that small changes in actuator length do not result in proportional changes in platform position or rotation, and the system’s behavior cannot

Florida Institute of Technology mentions Servos in published Article
Last week, FIT\’s Human Spaceflight Lab had an article written about what they were doing. A few years ago, Mr. Doule came to us with an idea… an idea of something that he required, but wasn\’t quite sure as to how to get there. Take a look at the article and how Servos helped them
