(1) sufficient resolution to allow magnification of the display to make appropriate
measurement and comparisons; and
(2) sufficient size and incremental marking
to allow similar measurement and comparison. The detail provided by the video should
provide sufficient clarity and accuracy to
measure the necessary parameter(s) to at

least 1-2 of the tolerance authorized for the
specific test being conducted and allow an
integration of the parameter(s) in question
to obtain a rate of change.

Data may be acquired by using a synchronized video of the calibrated helicopter instruments and the force/position measurements of flight deck controls.
Data may be acquired using a stopwatch and a means for measuring distance such as runway distance markers conforming with
runway distance marker standards.
Preliminary certification data may be used. Data may be acquired
by using a synchronized video of the calibrated helicopter instruments and the force/position measurements of flight deck controls. Collective, cyclic, and pedal position time history must be
recorded from the start of collective movement through to normal
climb. Indicated torque settings may be hand recorded at the moment of lift-off and in a steady normal climb.
Data may be acquired by using a synchronized video of the calibrated helicopter instruments and the force/position measurements of flight deck controls. Collective, cyclic, and pedal position
time history must be recorded from the start of collective movement through to normal OEI climb. Indicated torque settings may
be hand recorded at the moment of lift-off and in a steady normal
OEI climb.

A single procedure
may not be adequate for all rotorcraft steering systems. Appropriate
measurement
procedures must
be devised and
proposed for
NSPM concurrence.
