Abstract: Disclosed herein is are systems, devices, and methods for an autorotating aerial device which includes a housing member having disposed thereon an actuator and a controller configured to control the actuator. The device also includes a wing member coupled to the actuator, the wing member including a main wing portion and a flap portion adjustable with respect to the main wing portion. The controller is configured to control the actuator to switch the autorotating aerial device between a diving mode of operation and an autorotating mode of operation based on adjusting an angle of attack of the flap portion, the angle of attack being with respect to a lateral axis along the main wing portion.

Abstract: There is provided a mono-wing aerial device which includes a housing member having disposed thereon electronic components and a power source, including a controller configured to control a thrust unit; a wing member coupled to the housing member, the wing member configured to produce aerodynamic forces for autorotation of the aerial device, the wing member comprising a first edge portion proximal to the housing member and a second edge portion distal to the housing member, wherein the wing member is coupled to the housing member at the first edge portion; and the thrust unit coupled to the wing member at the second edge portion, wherein the thrust unit is configured to generate thrust in a direction substantially tangential to a rotational plane of the wing member. There is also provided a method of forming the mono-wing aerial device.
