A modular, hybrid robotic system for inspecting a structure can include a rigid frame, a modular propulsion system associated with a flight mode of the robotic system, the propulsion system comprising a plurality of propellers, a modular locomotion system associated with a climbing and/or driving mode of the robotic system, the locomotion system comprising a plurality of wheel systems, each wheel system comprising a support leg coupled to the rigid frame and at least one wheel coupled to the support leg, and a modular floating system associated with a swimming mode of the robotic system. In operation, all or some of the components of the propulsion system, locomotion system, and floating system can be included depending on a desired function.
