Wing inertia as a cause of aerodynamically uneconomical flight with high angles-of-attack in hovering insects

Flying insects can maintain maneuverability in the air by flapping their wings, and to save energy, the wings should operate following the optimal kinematics. However, unlike conventional rotary wings, insects operate their wings at aerodynamically uneconomical and high angles-of-attack (AoAs). Alth...
