This thesis concerns the development, evaluation, comparison and testing of a UH-1H helicopter
simulation model with various fidelity levels. In particular, the well known minimum
complexity simulation model is updated with various higher fidelity simulation components,
such as the Peters-He inflow model, horizontal tail contribution, improved tail rotor model,
control mapping, ground eect, fuselage interactions, ground reactions etc. Results are compared
with available flight test data. The dynamic model is integrated into the open source
simulation environment called Flight Gear. Finally, the model is cross-checked through evaluations
using test pilots.
