Course Control During Flight

摘要: The avian flight control system has almost the same function as technological in an aeroplane. Variables such angular position, course, linear and velocities have to be controlled both cases. In biological actual values of variables are continuously measured by eye mechanoreceptors (e.g. vestibular organ) compared central nervous with reference (see Sect. 12.3.2). Control deviations caused external disturbances gusts wind modulate activity steering muscles. Such disturbance induces adjustment final elements, wings tail, thus a correction spatial orientation motion flying bird.
