This site learned from the official public account of Northwestern Polytechnical University that at 8:54:12 am on September 22, 2023, at the Chang'an Campus of Northwestern Polytechnical University at the foot of the Qinling Mountains, the "Homing Pigeon" developed by the Northwestern Polytechnical University's bionic aircraft research team The flight time of the bionic aircraft reached 3 hours, 5 minutes and 30 seconds, breaking the Guinness World Record for single-charge flight time of an flapping-wing drone of 2 hours, 34 minutes and 38 seconds set by the "Clouded Owl" bionic aircraft developed by the team.

It is understood that the same "Cloud" who set the Guinness World Record for the single-charge flight time of an flapping-wing drone on November 15, 2022 Compared with the "Owl" bionic aircraft, the "Homing Pigeon" has a smaller fuselage, its wingspan is less than half of the "Clouded Owl", and its weight is about a quarter of the "Clouded Owl". It is a technological leap for bionic aircraft.

## "Homing Pigeon" UAV (2023 black livery version)
Liu Liu, a 2021 doctoral candidate in the team, said that because the "homing pigeon" is too lifelike, real birds are often used to fly with it during test flights.

The bionic flapping-wing aircraft imitates the flight mode of birds and other creatures flapping their wings. Because of its light weight, small size, low noise and other characteristics, it has bionic, concealment and portability. It is generally thrown by hand to take off. , gliding and landing, take-off and landing are not restricted by the site, and can be used in many fields such as covert reconnaissance in local complex environments, emergency rescue information acquisition, and wild biological scientific research.
