Voice Operated Micro Air Vehicle [PDF]
This paper presents the design of a Micro Air Vehicle (MAV) operated by speech commands. A person from a base station can comfortably control the motion of the MAV by issuing speech commands. This system proposes to have two units, one in the base station which is the control unit and the other is a flying machine.

Micro Air Vehicle Nonlinear Simulation [PDF]
Micro air vehicle (MAV) is very sensitive to the external disturbances which make the prediction of its dynamics a hard task. In this paper there is a description of nonlinear simulation made for the MAV’s dynamics prediction. Experimental measured data were used in this Simulink simulation, the Aerodynamics forces and moment, Mass moment of inertia ...

Numerical Analysis of Bioinspired Tails in a Fixed-Wing Micro Air Vehicle
Bird tails play a key role in aerodynamics and flight stability. They produce extra lift for takeoff and landing maneuvers, enhance wing functions and maintain stability during flight (keeping the bird from yawing, rolling and pitching, or otherwise ...
