Kuehneosauridae and powered flight?
I have been looking at various animals that have evolved some level of aerial capability, and I came across Kuehneosauridae. Reptiles which evolved gliding struts, attached down their sides, which could be folded down when not in use. These struts supported a membrane used for gliding, and I was wondering what kind of structural changes (if any) would allow these animals evolve powered flight?
Thank-you to anyone who takes the time to answer my curiosity.
