Outperforming hummingbirds’ load-lifting capability with a lightweight hummingbird-like flapping-wing mechanism
The stroke-cam flapping mechanism presented in this paper closely mimics the wing motion of a hovering Rufous hummingbird. It is the only lightweight hummingbird-sized flapping mechanism which generates a harmonic wing stroke with both a high flapping frequency and a large stroke amplitude. Experime...
