Achieving Lift-to-Weight Ratio >3.5 in Piezoelectric Direct-Driven Insect-Scale Flapping-Wing MAVs

Insect-scale flapping-wing micro aerial vehicles (FWMAVs) employing piezoelectric direct-drive configurations eliminate traditional kinematic chains through direct coupling of the wing and actuator. While this design approach significantly reduces structural complexity and manufacturing costs compar
