Flapping counter-torque
text:
Flapping counter-torque is a ubiquitous passive rotational damping effect in flapping flight that arises from world frame differences in the speed of flapping wings during turns. During a turns, flapping that is symmetrical in the body frame of the animal is not symmetrical in the lab frame. During such turns, the wings travel at different speeds. Thus, they create different amounts of lift and drag. At the speed and size of flapping animals, forces created by flapping are essentially proportion
