Flapping Wing Vehicle

Flapping is described as the simultaneous
heave and pitch oscillations of a wing.
The dominant way of producing lifting force
and propulsive force in natural flight is by
flapping.
In flapping flight, both lift and thrust forces are
produced simultaneously by flapping wings.
Flapping is an efficient way for flight at low
speed.
