Is clicking mechanism good for flapping wing micro aerial vehicle? by Chin, Yao Wei, Lau, Gih Keong

“…When moved passed the midpoint, it now tends to move to the other extreme, together with the external force, resulting in a fast, snapping ‘click’ to the other extreme. Hence, the clicking prototype showed a sudden high increase in wing flap speed when it is moved beyond midpoint towards the other end. …”
