In this work, we achieved a self-takeoff of an eagle-scale flapping-wing robot for the first time. Inspired by the takeoff process of Ospreys, we propose a bio-inspired takeoff strategy, then discuss the dynamic model and the requirements for self-takeoff. Based on the requirements of flight strategy, we designed a system with two parts, including a flapping-wing aircraft with a wingspan of 1.8m a...
