The purpose of this study is elucidating the mechanism of mosquito's flight. The motion of mosquito's wings consists of three representative motion; flapping, lead-lug and feathering motion. The feathering motion is a rotational movement which is centering on a wing leading edge. The mosquitoes are performing this motion passively produced by fluid forces and so on. In order to build the enlarged model which simulates this motion, we need to measure the stiffness of the mosquito's wings. The bending stiffness of the mosquito's wings were measured by the experiment using a cantilever. The enlarged wing model was designed based on its results. We observed the flapping motion of the enlarged wing model in the very low velocity wind tunnel and verified whether the feathering motion can be simulated.
