For flapping wing robots, the unknown aerodynamic terms can have the same order of magnitude as the inertial terms. It is doubtful that robustness methods can yield agile and accurate tracking response for such systems. 1, record 1, English, - flapping%20wing%20robot

Finalement, les travaux fondateurs sur les profils à très faible nombre de Reynolds (Re = 100) ont été réalisés [...] en préalable à l'étude d'un robot à ailes battantes imitant les mouvements d'une mouche. Ce dispositif expérimental a ainsi fourni les efforts engendrés sur une plaque plane pour des nombres de Reynolds compris entre 75 et 230 et des incidences comprises entre 0° et 90°. 1, record 1, French, - robot%20%C3%A0%20ailes%20battantes

Uno de los principales retos para el diseño de robots de alas batientes es encontrar una correcta configuración de alas. Éstas son las encargadas de generar las fuerzas de levantamiento y empuje que permiten que el MAV [microvehículo aéreo volador] vuele. 1, record 1, Spanish, - robot%20de%20alas%20batientes

As the aircraft begins to roll in response to the moment produced by the ailerons, the lift distribution again begins to change. The rolling motion induces an angle of attack increase on the down-going wing, and an angle of attack decrease on the up-going wing... This creates an opposing aerodynamic moment, called roll damping(or rolling moment due to roll rate,... 2, record 2, English, - roll%20rate

An autopilot system operates in the principle of gyroscopic rigidity in space. The system incorporates two gyroscopes to control flight in the longitudinal, lateral and vertical axes of the aircraft. If the aircraft deviates from the programmed attitude, the system computer detects the deviation and issues commands to the servo motors which move the primary flight control surfaces as required to return the aircraft to the required flight attitude. This is called aerodynamic response. 1, record 3, English, - aerodynamic%20response

Les systèmes de pilote automatique fonctionnent en vertu du principe de la [fixité] gyroscopique dans l'espace. Le système comprend deux gyroscopes pour contrôler les axes longitudinal, latéral et vertical en vol. Lorsque l'aéronef s'écarte de l'assiette programmée, l'ordinateur du système détecte l'écart et émet les commandes appropriées aux servo-moteurs qui entraînent le déplacement des commandes primaires de vol de façon à ce que l'aéronef reprenne l'assiette de vol voulue. C'est ce qui s'appelle une réponse aérodynamique. 1, record 3, French, - r%C3%A9ponse%20a%C3%A9rodynamique
