Prototype Evaluation

  • AdvAero’s unique “Come As You Are” concept helps Customers economically and rapidly evaluate prototypes technologies in a representative and comprehensive environment using AdvAero’s own research simulator and Piaggio Avanti Flying Avionics Test Bed.
  • Allows for very early evaluation of prototypes to obtain objective feedback on technology functionality in an integrated environment (ATC, Pilot, other aircraft, other avionics)
  • Makes TRL 2 and higher technologies appear as TRL 8
  • Does not require costly aircraft modifications (no holes, no cables, no flight ready hardware required)

Flying Avionics Test Bed / OPV

Unique airborne test platform for fixed wing aircraft (manned and unmanned)

  • Piaggio P180 Avanti with a dedicated two-crew flight test workstation
  • State of the art avionics systems on board already
  • Allows low maturity technologies to be evaluated and demonstrated early in an immersive environment with no need to drill holes and run cables and no flight restrictions
  • Allows promising avionics technologies to be identified early and without spending a lot of money
  • Ideal demonstration platform for customers’ new concepts
  • UAS ground station integrated – can be flown as OPV in NAS for integration, test and demonstration of new technologies without experimental flight restrictions
  • Used to rapidly and efficiently obtain TSO and STC approval for avionics and systems
