Concrete structures are composed of three-dimensional surfaces, making them complex moving environments. We constructed a stability model and developed a novel robot on the floor and wall surfaces required for the robot to move on a three-dimensional surfaces. The proposed robot can move not only by utilizing the thrust generated by its propeller but also by deflecting the thrust in the appropriate direction. Based on this deflecting thrust, we clarified the conditions under which the robot does not slide or fall on the 3D surface and developed a theoretical stability model. In addition, experiments were conducted to verify whether the robot could move from a floor surface to a wall surface. As a result, it was confirmed that the robot can move between two surfaces.
