... generated by turning cockatoos Eolophus roseicapillus . We also estimate the amount of inertial reorientation due to wing arc and moment of inertia asymmetries at different points in the wingbeat cycle. Based on our initial investigation ( Hedrick and Biewener, 2007b ), we hypothesized that the estimated...

...-breasted cockatoo Eolophus roseicapillus ( N =6), testing predictions of maneuvering flight and control based on aerodynamic theory and prior kinematic and neuromuscular studies. Six cockatoos were trained to navigate between two perches placed in an L-shaped flight corridor, making a 90° turn midway...
