Engineering Services / Flight Test
Instrumentation consulting and systems integration for aircraft development, ground testing, and flight-test programs.
Fusion Data Systems helps aerospace teams define, integrate, and verify the measurement chain: sensors, signal conditioning, data acquisition, recording, telemetry, and ground displays. We build around your test objectives, existing equipment, and operating constraints.
Discuss your test programWhat we help you accomplish
Translate test objectives into a measurement plan. Identify channels, sensor interfaces, sample rates, accuracy, timing, and live-data requirements before selecting or integrating equipment.
Typical deliverables: measurement list, instrumentation requirements, system architecture, and interface definitions.
Connect sensors, signal conditioning, data acquisition systems, recorders, telemetry links, and ground displays. Evaluate existing hardware first and focus engineering on the interfaces and gaps that matter to the test.
Typical deliverables: channel configuration, data-path diagrams, equipment recommendations, and an integration plan.
Check calibration, scaling, time alignment, recording, and display behavior. Exercise representative signals and operating conditions to identify integration problems before the system is needed for testing.
Typical deliverables: checkout procedures, verification records, discrepancy lists, and configuration baselines.
Support system readiness, ground and flight-test operations, data retrieval, and troubleshooting. Maintain the relationship between measurements, configuration, and test conditions as the program evolves.
Typical deliverables: operating instructions, data-retrieval workflows, configuration updates, and technical support reports.
Where we fit
Engage Fusion for a defined instrumentation task or for coordinated support across requirements, integration, checkout, and test operations. We can work alongside your engineering team and equipment suppliers, with responsibilities and deliverables agreed before work begins.
Applications include aircraft development, uncrewed platforms, ground-test rigs, synchronized sensor and video measurements, and recording and telemetry workflows.
Aircraft installation, airworthiness approvals, and certification responsibilities remain with the customer and its designated organizations unless separately agreed with appropriately authorized parties. Fusion's instrumentation support does not itself constitute aircraft design approval or certification.
Our research in adaptive communications and resilient gateways is separate from these engineering services. Explore our research directions.
Relevant experience
Co-founder Jeff Rusincovitch brings more than 24 years of aerospace engineering, flight-test instrumentation, telemetry, and systems integration experience, including prior roles at Gulfstream, Lockheed Martin, and Safran.
Co-founder Paul-André Kuehn brings more than 30 years across Safran and predecessor businesses, including embedded software, mission recording, and IRIG 106 Chapter 10 systems.
This experience reflects work in prior roles; it does not imply that those organizations are Fusion customers or endorse Fusion.
Meet our leadershipFor an initial discussion, share the platform or test article, the measurements you need, existing equipment, timing and live-data requirements, and the expected test schedule. We can then define the next engineering step and the information needed to scope it.
