Vertical Take-off and Landing(VTOL),agile manoeuvring,and hovering flight are extremely desirable characteristics of insect flight in development of Flapping Wing Micro Air Vehicles(FW-MAVs),which enable an insect-inspired FW-MAV to retake off and fly in confined spaces for indoor surveillance.Moreover,the FW-MAVs are more efficient at low Reynolds number regime,less noisy,and less dangerous than their counter parts of fixed wings and rotary wings.These key features have led insect-inspired FW-MAVs to be attractive flying models for modern micro air vehicles.This work presents the design and fabrication,flight performance and measurement of flapping forces,power consumption,and wing kinematics of a hovering FWMAV mimicking insect flight.
