The 2453H-ER is Ideal Aerosmith’s base model Three-Axis Flight Motion Simulator for Hardware-InThe-Loop (HWIL) Seeker Guidance Testing.

Extremely efficient hydraulic actuators allow high system utilization – such as Monte Carlo-type test scenarios – on a time-continuous basis. As with our three-axis FMS systems, Ideal’s flexible AERO4000™ Controller affords real-time motion control via several industry-standard high-speed interfaces.

The 2453H-ER features a direct-drive DC brushless motor for the innermost (roll) axis, high-performance hydraulic vane actuators on the Pitch and Yaw axes, and precision optical encoders on all axes. The AERO4000™ digital signal processors based (DSP) controller provides accurate and reliable motion control. The user can operate the FMS from the AERO4000™ Graphic User Interface for local control, or remotely via a computer interface. It affords easy operation, and can accommodate the Ideal Aerosmith Table Language (ATL) for remote operation. The AERO4000™ Controller comes standard with IEEE-488, RS-232, and Ethernet communication interfaces.
