An ornithopter is an aircraft that flies by flapping its wings.

This design is a better version of Malok`s `fly like a bird` found here:
http://www.phunbox.net/details/16111/

It flaps automatically and is slightly controllable with the arrow keys (Using a controller).

It flies by means of air friction, as it is still impossible to make a real flying aircraft.

Thanks to RaRaMalum for developing the ever-so-useful Raunit.

Enjoy.

It doesn't fly by friction with the air. It is just incredibly light, so it won't fall

that's not right.. turn air off and on again and you'll see that it stops falling and starts rising slowly.. also, if you fixate the motors it stops gaining height...

I think you'll find that turning the air on and off again will cause any air fiction motor to stop functioning.
Fixating the motors turns it into a block. of course it will start falling.

Fly with controller => simple:s
light => very simple ... its just " design " what you cant name "design" ....

@Ishwa: what I wanted to proof there was that it does make a difference! The fact that the thing behaves differently when fixated or air turned off proofs that it indeed DOES fly by air friction.. knowing that, try to read my post again, maybe you'll understand then:)

nice, i made something exactly like this a while back- but im not accusing yu of anything

@DJGummikuh: Oh right. I thought you were talking to Vonicles92. I completely understand now. :)
