Research on the FBL (fly by light) is being conducted as a part of the research on future technology for STOL aircraft. This FBL is used to optically transmit signals emitted from control systems. The main features of the experimental optical transducer are described. Environmental resistance tests, functional tests, and performance tests are scheduled to be conducted for the optical transducer unit by using a rig testing unit and an experimental aircraft.
