dc.description.abstracten	Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) extend their usage to various fields, resulting in increased research in this area. To expand the UAVs’ operational working area, different solutions were developed. In this thesis, we designed a passive gripper mechanism inspired by an avian one, which in future will enable UAV transportation by another UAV without the need for energy consumption for transported UAVs. We developed a lightweight UAV with one of the smallest available onboard computers on it. We enabled the UAV to fly autonomously by integrating it into the Multi-Robot Systems (MRS) UAV system and added it to the simulation for further study. We conducted real-world experiments to test the stability of the UAV during au- tonomous flight and to tune it.	uk
