Abstract	AeroArts continues its development of advanced water tunnel test techniques, combining flow visualization, aerodynamic force and moment measurement, and a 6-degree-of-freedom dynamic model support. Currently work progresses toward the goal of Synthetic Free Flight that pumps the measured aerodynamics through the equations-of-motion to compute the trajectory of the air vehicle in real time. An example video is shown of the launch transient of a small expendable air-launched munition. During the transient, angle of attack ranges from the initial +70 degrees to –40 degrees, demonstrating a 110-degree range of motion for the Scorpio support system.
