We have developed a biology-inspired dynamic flight simulator on a basis of realistic insect morphology which is capable to mimic free flight of a real insect. It aims at analyzing the aerodynamic phenomena associated with the insect free flight and revealing the force-generation mechanisms. Using a moth, Agrius convolvuli LINNE, we have made a digitizing analysis of the shape and the internal structure of insect wings and body, and succeeded in constructing a realistic wing-body moth model with high resolution. A CFD modeling of unsteady aerodynamics in a flapping flight is also established.
