ABSTRACT
The present world has reached to a stage where most of the sophisticated and sensitive tasks are mostly done by artificial
hands. Drones, robots have been replaced the place of human with their uncompromised accuracy and efficiencies. We are
concentrating on the aerial vehicles; want to integrate our ideas and work to develop a new type of flight system to improve
the control and maneuvering abilities of flying UAVs or drones. Our logic is nothing can fly efficient as the birds do. So
copying from the flying behavior of it, is possible to gain all the abilities like the bird. In the present work, a model is
developed which flaps its wings in fixed amplitude with variable frequencies. A crank shaft mechanism is introduced to
drive the wings. The model is powered by a 100 watt dc motor with necessary gearbox assemblies. The controlling and
maneuvering have been done by a radio communication and bird like tail consequently. 3 channel radio communication is
needed to control the flapping frequency and tail combinations. Flying upward, downward, left, right and 360 degree rolling
is possible with this tail combination. Micro servo motors were used for tail mechanism.
