Static Electricity to Flap UAV Material Memory Wings
Not much, but enough energy to use to force a polymer muscle to contract. Think on this, because you will not be alone in those thoughts. All birds have very strong muscles, which flap their wings, we can make such a muscle out of polymer to do the same thing and then find the already known best ratio of flapping to airspeed and design this into the zapping propulsion system that we created. Then it immediately wishes to go back to its normal shape. When an aircraft flies through the air it trades electrons due to the friction it creates.

Material Memory and NASA High Tech Plastics for Rotor Blades
Since they are made of polymer plastic blends it will be possible to add in some material memory manufacturing in the process. Material memory manufacturing with new high-tech NASA plastics will significantly increase performance characteristics and flight agility in future aerospace designs and we should definitely be thinking here and make use of these new materials to serve our needs. By using this technique we could increase the take off weight and allow the UAV VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) Helicopter to move quickly into position and then hover for much longer periods of time without using up all its fuel in route, thus allowing it an increased range for use in Natural Disasters, wartime, search and rescue, surveillance or commercial applications. These materials are said to be ten times the strength of steel and three times lighter than aluminum. This would allow the rotor blades made out of this new plastic material to change shape.

Increasing TAS in Modern Day Fighters with Expandable Wing Tips
Straight out, 26 degrees and 45 degrees, behind this fold out spar would be a webbing of strong inflatable polymer rubbery material made of partially MMM Manufactured material memory substances. As the aircraft approached the speed of sound it would be completely retracted. As the webbing retracts it would run thru a roller system allowing it to take up very little space, as the area it retracts into will also hold fuel tanks and space would be limited. As the folding spar comes back it would provide an end-cap covering the system as well as a small gate or strake on the protruding fuselage/wing tip. At 450 to 500 Knots the wing would fold back to 26-degree and then at 550 to 600 Knots fold back to 45-degrees.
