Abstract
This paper describes a technique, called quarter cycle constant-period frequency modulation, to control the motion of wings on a flapping wing micro air vehicle. This technique allows control over the wingbeat period and three additional points within a single wingbeat cycle, allowing modulation of the wing’s velocity to provide control over multiple degrees-of-freedom of the vehicle. Using a blade element based aerodynamic model, both instantaneous and cycle averaged forces and moments are analytically computed for a specific type of wing beat motion that enables nearly decoupled, multiple degrees-of-freedom control of the aircraft. The wing positions are controlled using oscillators whose frequencies change once per wing beat cycle. A control oriented dynamic model of the vehicle is derived, which is based on a cycle averaged representation of the forces and moments. Control derivatives are calculated and a cycle-averaged control law is designed that provides control over multiple degrees-of-freedom of the vehicle.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
