Research on Optimal Design of Bionic Flapping-wing Aircraft Driver Based on MEMS
With the development of bionics and MEMS in recent years, new progress has been made in the research of bionic micro flapping-wing aircraft, which has a wide application prospect in military and civil applications. Flapping-wing aircraft is a new type of aircraft that imitates flying creatures in nature by generating lift and thrust through wing flapping. Bionic micro flapping-wing aircraft imitates the natural flapping-wing flight mode, with excellent flight performance, concealment, small size and low mass. The important flight indexes of flapping-wing MAV, such as maneuverability and endurance, are closely related to the power system adopted, and the driver is the core component. In this paper, a new driver scheme is proposed. After many flight tests and optimization iterations of the aircraft structure, the performance of the bionic flapping-wing aircraft driver based on MEMS has finally reached a certain degree of stability, and the performance and efficiency have been improved, which is helpful to expand the application field of aircraft.
