Its lightweight design enables it to \u201cswim\u201d in the sea of air using the lift from the helium in a similar way to the manta ray in water. Propulsion is achieved by a beating wing drive. The servo drive-controlled wing, which can move up and down, utilises the Fin Ray Effect\u00ae and is based on alternate pulling and pushing flanks connected via frames. When pressure is exerted on one edge, the geometrical structure automatically curves against the direction of the influencing force. A servo drive pulls the two flanks alternately in longitudinal direction, thus moving the wing up and down (via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.festo.com\/cms\/en_corp\/9789_10409.htm#id_10409\">Air_ray | Festo Corporate<\/a>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Air_ray, modelled on the manta ray, is a remote-controlled hybrid construction consisting of a helium-filled ballonet and a beating wing drive.
