  • For further improving the maneuverability of the flapping-wing micro air vehicle, the movable hinge crank slider flapping mechanism proposed earlier was improved and miniaturized. The kinematics of the flapping mechanism indicated that as the hinges moved, the difference of the bilateral flapping amplitudes increased from 21.3° to 51.2° and the bilateral mean flapping amplitudes decreased to 0°. And a modularized and carbon fiber plate bionic dragonfly prototype was designed. The measurement and flight test of the prototype showed that the lift and thrust of the prototype changed obviously by adjusting the flapping frequency, realizing rapid acceleration and climbing maneuvering flight. By moving the hinge, significant yaw moment and roll moment were generated for maneuvering turn at larger flapping frequency.
