Flapper Drones
Flapper Drones is a TU Delft MAVLab and Université Libre de Bruxelles spinout with over 10 years of bioinspired flapping-wing flight research. The company commercializes flapping-wing flying robots — Nimble+ and Nimble Triple — for GPS-denied indoor environments, drone shows, entertainment, and inspection. Their drones mimic bird/insect flight mechanics for safe operation near humans without spinning propeller hazards. Products are available for purchase through their online store; customers include drone show operators, festivals, theme parks, and theatres.
