Abstract

Even in face of all innovative aspects around VTOL aircraft development, specially for all-electric airplanes, the conventional FTI concepts shows up your real value: from Processes Organization until Test Results, FTI can contribute providing solution in many scopes of the Flight-Testing, what includes Requirements Control, Data Acquisition and Special Systems Design, Flight-Test Data Processing and Analysis and Flight Results Reports. In this article, we’ll describe how the conventional FTI is being developed and implemented from the scratch in an eVTOL Startup, its development challenges and how to keep improving the instrumentation concepts in front of all new technologies demand for manned and unmanned flights.
