Yaw control torque generation for a hovering robotic hummingbird

This study describes the design, development, and flight tests of a novel control mechanism to generate yaw control torque of a hovering robotic hummingbird (known as Colibri). The proposed method generates yaw torque by modifying the wing kinematics while minimizing its influence on roll and pitch...
