Abstract :
Use of a wall-climbing robot for rescue or fire-fighting has been anticipated for a longtime. Four quite different models have been developed in the authors´ laboratory. The present model can move on a wall by using the thrust force of a propeller and can fly whenever it is required. Its mechanism and control system are discussed
