Short summary
Power line inspection not only wastes human and material resources, but also has a high-risk factor for manual inspection of power lines. Therefore, based on previous researchers, we designed a novel power line inspection robot. We also investigate walking stability of the robot on the line when encountering working conditions with crossing wind, since the power line is about 50–60 m from the ground and the inspection robots are greatly affected by wind.
