Flying Robots
Check out my latest design : Hovering Bat Robot. The
movie below presents the mechanism of the robot take
off. You can see the preview. Just be patient while

Hey!! Coming sometime in the future, a sensational strap-on
flapping wing device that magnifies your arm power enabling
you to fly like a bird. The ultimate in flying sensation.
You can hover and fly just like the birds. New materials
and understanding of flapping protracting and retracting
wing flight and lightweight high power internal combustion
engines means that this, up until now fantasy of Man,
will become a reality.
The latest robot.A 5foot wingspan aerial vehicle constructed from five carbon
fibre tubes. Not flown yet. Each wing has independent angle of attack control
so that it can fly at extreme fuselage angles and exhibit very low flying speeds.
Concept design was by F. Nickols and detail design and manufacture was by Phua
Tian Soon, a lecturer at Nanyang Polytechnic. Beautifully made Phua!
