Body flexion effect on the flight dynamics of a hovering hawkmoth
The position and attitude controls of flapping wing flyers are challenging because of their inherent instabilities. Insects can cope with such difficulties by finely and quickly tuning their wing kinematics. In addition, it is known that insects change their posture through the joint between thorax...
