• Abstract:
  The overall objective of the control station tasks within Project A-10 is to provide the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) with information on an ergonomic design of unmanned aircraft system (UAS) control stations which will allow safe piloting of UASs. A large percentage, 69%, of unmanned aircraft accidents have been attributed to human factors issues including both phys-ical workstation design and human-machine interaction (Waraich, Mazzuchi, Sarkani, Rico, 2013). The purpose of this document, a subpart of A-10, is to provide the FAA with the minimal physical control station design recommendations that will promote favorable operator comfort and performance and reduce musculoskeletal injury risks.
