The present invention relates to the technical field of climbing robots, and more specifically, to a wheel-wing dual-drive high-mobility climbing robot, including a base, a first drive portion, a second drive portion, an inertial measurement unit, a Hall sensor, a depth camera, and a control module. The control module is configured to integrate data from the depth camera and the inertial measurement unit to determine whether the climbing robot has a trend to cross an edge-corner structure, and when the trend exists, select whether to use a crossing strategy of the second drive portion based on data from the Hall sensor. In this solution, when it is difficult for the climbing robot to cross an edge-corner structure using a wheel-driven mode alone, a ducted fan is activated to form a wheel-wing dual-drive mode, thereby compensating for shortcomings of single-mode wheel drive, enhancing mobility of the climbing robot.
