| | The third mode is the conversion mode with the nacelles tilted between the rotor-borne mode and the wing-borne mode nacelle angle positions.... A literature review on the available specifications and publications revealed a lack of criteria for the T / R. Not any specific criteria exists for the conversion mode so far.... |

| 2. | RHILP [ Piloted Simulation ] |
| | The large prop-rotors on Tilt Rotor aircraft are required to work effectively in helicopter mode as an edgewise rotor and as a propeller in airplane mode. They are also required to generate and sustain the manoeuvre loads in these flight regimes and also during conversion mode when the nacelles can be fixed at intermediate angles, e.g. 60deg. These requirements introduce significant structural and aerodynamic design challenges but also opportunities. " XV15 research aircraft during conversion "... |

| | The investigations of the roll attitude bandwidth and phase delay have mostly concentrated on the conversion flight mode of the Civil Tiltrotor (CTR).... About 15 different bandwidth / phase-delay confi-gurations were evaluated by the 3 pilots in the simulator, amounting to almost 50 Handling Quality ratings gathered in the conversion mode.... |
