Aerial docking of micro unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) onto aerial carrier platforms is significantly affected by various disturbances, particularly in the terminal docking phase. The downwash generated by the micro UAV and gust wind can induce considerable disturbances to the carrier, resulting in
This letter presents a 5.2g ultra-lightweight air-ground vehicle capable of passive stable flying and terrestrial cruising. Such a design proposes a passive stability layout, including a single-axis rotor, film dampers, and a stabilizer bar. The advantageous synergy between the rotor and the passive
As an amphibious system, aerial-terrestrial vehicles have demonstrated remarkable environmental adaptability. In order to expand their synergistic advantages, in this letter, an Aerial-Terrestrial vehicle consisting of a pair of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) is prop
