Claim One:
1. A wing-drive mechanism for a vehicle having a fuselage, comprising a) an outwardly extending spar that is rotatable independently in flap, yaw and pitch directions about a pivot point; b) an inwardly extending spar that is rotatable independently in flap, yaw and pitch directions about the pivot point, c) a drive wing mounted on the outwardly extending spar; d) a first axis drive mechanism for moving said drive wing about the pivot point in a flap direction in response to a first movement input signal; e) a second axis drive mechanism for moving said drive wing about the pivot point in a yaw direction in response to a second movement input signal, wherein said second axis drive mechanism operates independently of said first axis drive mechanism; and f) a third axis drive mechanism for adjusting the pitch of said drive wing in response to a third movement input signal, wherein said third axis drive mechanism operates independently of said first and second axis drive mechanisms, wherein at least one of the first and second axis drive mechanisms act on the inwardly extending spar to effect movement of the inwardly extending spar, the outwardly extending spar and the drive wing about the pivot point.
