Insects and hummingbirds exhibit extraordinary flight capabilities and can simultaneously master seemingly conflicting goals: stable hovering and aggressive maneuvering, unmatched by small scale man-made vehicles. Flapping Wing Micro Air…

Dual-system UAVs with vertical take-off and landing capabilities have become increasingly popular in recent years. As a safety-critical system, it is important that a dual-system UAV can maintain safe flight after faults/failures occur.…
