Abstract

Based on the basic theory of flapping-wing aircraft, using SolidWorks modeling method and taking smartbird of Germany as the prototype, this paper completes the mechanical structure design of a bird-like flapping-wing aircraft (Intelligent Bird X). Then three-dimensional modeling and motion simulation calculation of flapping wing mechanism are carried out by using ADAMS software, and the simulation results are basically consistent with the actual motion parameters of smartbird, which proves the rationality and feasibility of the structural design in this paper.
