Status of the gust resistant MAV programme is presented. Gust resistance is achieved by application of super-maneuverable configuration with cranked delta wing and propeller in the slot near the center of gravity. Previous research proved the concept plausibility. The paper focuses on the current activities devoted to the configuration improvement.
