| Description | An aid concept known as the PIDA (Payload Installation and Deployment Aid) is presented as a way to assist the RMS (Remote Manipulator System) by relaxing the accuracy required during payload handling in the payload bay. The aid concept was designed and developed to move payloads through a prescribed path between the confined quarters of the payload bay and a position outside the critical maneuvering area of the Orbiter. A description of the design requirements and the modes of operation of the various functions of the deployment and the docking mechanisms are covered. |
