Multirotor Test Bed Test 2 (MTB2) Performance Data
The Multirotor Test Bed (MTB) was designed to accommodate a broad range of reconfigurable multirotor systems and to measure rotor performance and loads in a wind tunnel environment. Its second wind tunnel entry, MTB2, was completed in August of 2022 in the U.S. Army 7- by 10-Foot Wind Tunnel at NASA Ames Research Center.
The focus of the MTB2 test campaign was to obtain performance data for variable height quadrotor configurations to support concept quadrotor design efforts by both government and industry.
The data from MTB2 test campaign will be released in the near future. The following will be available to download here.
- The MTB2 Data Report which describes the model, experimental campaign, and data post-processing.
- A file defining the contents of the datafiles.
- Datafiles containing the data and test matrix sorted both chronologically and by configuration.
