Abstract
This paper presents the results of a study to implement a motion cueing algorithm for a six DOF flight simulator motion base. More specifically, getting specific forces and angular velocity from X-Plane Simulator, communication between X-Plane and dSPACE board 1104, and motion cueing parameter optimization. We evaluate the simulation realism by using an objective performance indicator. The specific forces and angular velocities at the simulator are measured by an inertial measurement unit (IMU). The experimental results revealed that the motion base is capable of producing motion simulation quality comparable to that produced by similar research simulator motion bases.
