Fig. 4. The measured position and orientation of a real hawkmoth hovering for 3.5 s in front of an artificial flower. The moth's estimated centre of mass position differed by an average of 0.29 cm from its overall mean location and the moth maintained a body angle of 34.3±3.3°. Body position and orientation were drawn for every 0.044 s of flight.
