Ornithopter Flapping Mechanisms

Hello everyone,

This ornithopter model not only offers a visual impression with a mechanism that flies by flapping its wings, but also allows children to explore the mechanics of the ornithopter. Inspired by birds in nature, the model stands on a specially designed stand with a bird pattern. Powered by a bamboo lab TT motor, this model functions as both a fun toy and a learning tool. While watching this design, children have the opportunity to discover aerodynamic principles and flight mechanics through experience.

Required Materials:

1. TT Motor DC5V 59rpm
2. M3 8mm x 10 screws
3. M3 16mm x 4 screws
4. M3 6mm x 2 screws
5. M3 nut 16 pcs
