The flexibility of insect wings should be considered in the design of bionic micro flapping-wing aircraft. The honeybee is an ideal biomimetic object because its wings are small and possess a concise vein pattern. In this paper, we focus on resilin, an important flexible factor in honeybees’ forewings. Both resilin joints and resilin stripes are co...
