ZS-Puffin is an amphibious aerial-aquatic vehicle that uses pitch-moving wings for lift in air and flapping propulsion underwater. Its wings use one pitch degree of freedom, avoiding extra components for switching modes. Tests showed underwater swimming at 0.29 m/s and water exit into vertical flight in about 3 seconds; these demonstrate particular modes, not complete autonomous missions.
