Stop-rotor aircraft are a class of vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) vehicle that offer improved efficiency across flight modes through the usage of a single central lifting surface. In VTOL, the central lifting surface rotates like a helicopter blade to achieve an upward force. In forward flight,

Reversible morphing wings, capable of exchanging the direction of the leading and trailing edge, improve the feasibility of stopped-rotor aerial vehicles and thereby expand aerial robotics capabilities. Despite the potential benefits of reversible morphing wings, few designs exist and most do not co
