Research progress on the flight control of flapping-wing aerial vehicles
In nature, flying creatures flap their wings to generate lift, which is necessary for flight. Most birds change flight patterns by moving their wings using their wing muscles and adjusting their tail states.

A CFD-informed quasi-steady model of flapping-wing aerodynamics [PDF]
Aerodynamic performance and agility during flapping flight are determined by the combination of wing shape and kinematics. The degree of morphological and kinematic optimization is unknown and depends upon a large parameter space.
