During flight tests, data from civilian and military flight devices are recorded for later analysis. The ZODIAC Data Systems devices can be and are used in wide-bodied aircrafts, helicopters, jets and UAVs.

For many years now, the HEIM DATaRec® D-series has been the standard recorder for the flight test applications in many companies.

New developments in the use of distributed systems allows the ruggedised HEIM DATaRec® 4 series, to be placed close to signal sources, offering advantages for larger configurations.

The HEIM DATaRec 4 MDR family is currently being developed and is the most compact flight test recorder that ZODIAC Data Systems has developed. It's compact size, combined with high performance and user control capability has advantages if installed directly in the cockpit or it can be placed in more traditional locations.


DATaRec® 4 MDR-2s

The new standard for flight test instrumentation!     Click on images below for more information.
 

MDR-2s recorder
small, light and very cost effective instrument,
controlled and managed via integrated front panel,
user configurable signal modules, CF storage media

 


 

MDR Signal Conditioning Modules
a range of signal conditioning
modules lets you tailor the
MDR-2s recorder to your needs

 

DATaRec® 4 Ruggedised Series

The extremely high performance and precision of the HEIM DATaRec® 4R series has no equivalent.
This distributed system approach allows individual measurement modules can be installed close to the signal source and the system can be readily expanded at any time
A HEIM DATaRec® 4 ruggedised system consists of one link module together with one storage media module and various signal modules which are connected together and to the link module through the HEIM link bus.
