N2 - In consideration of the complex operation scenes such as disaster site and field, the detecting robot must be very adaptable to different environments, such as land and sky, which means a high requirement for the configuration design is very necessary. This paper presents a small air-land amphibious detecting robot that fuses the ground robot and flying robot function. The common ground robots are wheeled robot, crawler robot, foot robot and so on. In comparison, foot robot is more suitable for complex unstructured environments, and the quadruped robot is considered the most promising robot insides. In contrast, the flying robots are often used in the form of the fixed wing robot, multi-propeller rotor, flapping wing robot, helicopter robot and so on. Take the advantage such as strong controllability, flexible movement, and vertical take-off and landing into account, the multi-propeller rotor is a low cost, simple and effective solution, especially quad-rotor aircraft. So this paper proposes the configuration that combining quadruped robot and quad-rotor aircraft. This paper presents a configuration design that combines the quadruped robot and quad-rotor aircraft function together, in order to make this robot has the flexibility of the quad-rotor aircraft and the ground adaptability of the quadruped robot.
