FasTrak™ Optical Tracker
The no-hands helicopter blade tracking system
The FasTrak™ day and night optical blade tracker provides blade track and lead/lag automatically – without an inherent operator interpretation.
FasTrak™ is part of the 8500-series, VXP and EVXP systems. Mounted on the fuselage, the FasTrak™ is oriented upward toward the underside of the rotating blades. It views each blade from each rotor through a ten degree window and operates on the principle that a high-flying blade will remain in the field of view longer than a low flying blade.
Installation and operation with Honeywell Rotor Track and Balance systems are straightforward, using aircraft specific brackets and software.
