NACA Research Memorandums

Report presenting testing of three rocket-powered models with Douglas D-558-2 wings as horizontal fins with scaled structural parameters to determine whether the possibility of wing flutter due to torsion and bending exists in full-scale airplanes at transonic speeds. No wing flutter was present in the models tested, but pitching oscillation developed as it passed into the transonic range

NACA Research Memorandums

"Performance investigation and frequency response analyses were con- ducted en two autopilot control systems designed for use in the 0.4-scale model of the Grumman F8F-1 airplane. The first system, based on the action of a displacement gyroscope only, was investigated to find the cause of a small-amplitude pitch oscillation which had been noted in previous flight tests. The results of the investigation conducted revealed that, although the autopilot-model combination was dynamically stable, a hunting oscillation was possible due to a change in autopilot characteristics in a dive" (p. 1)

Laboratory Investigation of Two Autopilots for a 4/10-Scale Drop Model of the Grumman F8F-1 Airplane, TED No. NACA 2466

Performance investigation and frequency response analyses were con- ducted en two autopilot control systems designed for use in the 0.4-scale model of the Grumman F8F-1 airplane. The first system, based on the action of a displacement gyroscope only, was investigated to find the cause of a small-amplitude pitch oscillation which had been noted in previous flight tests. The results of the investigation conducted revealed that, although the autopilot-model combination was dynamically stable, a hunting oscillation was possible due to a change in autopilot characteristics in a dive. This hunting condition can be eliminated by increasing the gyroscope pickoff dead spot without greatly reducing dynamic stability of the autopilot-model combination
