A Study on Design of Dragonfly Flapping Wing Micro Air Vehicle System

Unmanned warfare is the trend of modern warfare, in which the flapping wing micro air vehicle(FWMAV) is widely used because of its small size and flexibility. In this paper, a new dragonfly FWMAV configuration and system integration scheme is proposed. Firstly, considering the concision of mechanical structure and the kinematic performance of FWMAV, a crank-slider double-swing mechanism is designed as a flapping structure based on the dynamic analysis of mechanical structure. Secondly, in order to meet the requirements of autonomous navigation and cluster control, this paper selects airborne equipment while minimizing the quality of FWMAV. Thirdly, the system integration scheme is designed and the integration logic of each component of FWMAV is described. Finally, the possible improvement directions of the FWMAV is described in this paper.
