This report describes research performed on various configurations of a flexible-wing Micro Air Vehicle (MAV). Flexible-wing MAV’s advantage over rigid-wing MAV is that it is able to fly much smoother in gusty wind conditions. As such, wind tunnel experiments at free stream velocity of 21 m/s were c...
