Wingspan : 122 inches ( 3.1 Meter )
weight : 3.2 lbs ( 1450 Grams )
battery : 1200mah 45C 4 cell lipo
flapping rate and flapping Amplitude : reduced as precaution during maiden flight
Wing glide lock : not yet installed.
Head and body cover is temporary, unfinished paint job.

Thanks for watching. My Ornithopter project have been on hold for several years now due to my constant move to a new home ( 3 times in the last 4 years ) ,had to put my project in storage boxes.. I recently got back into it but cant do anything during winter season ( too cold in my new tiny garage ) , and yes I will have a less noisy version soon... This is only a prototype version with a custom built aluminum open gearbox, it's the aluminum gears in the gearbox that is making that noise . My new 3D printed version has an enclosed gearbox with nylon gears .

Impressive... the only other working version I've seen was from this viral video on FB: facebook.com/3dProductiondesigns/videos/1327465700653390/?t=10 Hoping this goes viral. Great looking build too... looks more natural like.

@@jafinch78 Thanks. The other bird you mention is made by Festo. They have million dollar budget , a dozen engineer and a proper facility and tools to build one. I build mine in a small garage with just a few bucks of dollar to spare to buy materials and using mostly basic hand held tools. ... Working on a new version now.
50 years of modeling and I've never seen anything like that! What an achievement!

Same- however, I AM seeing newer and newer inventions, growing along this line of thinking. Once, was an RC "Dragonfly"-type insect .... even had a pilot! Isn't Liberty, Freedom, and Innovation, the very best life has to offer?
That's the neatest thing I've seen since canned beer (Yes, I was alive before beer was sold in cans). Seriously, great job building that bird and I hope to see it when you can lock the wings in glider mode.

MARCIALTECH, this is the coolest flying object I have ever seen. If you can silence the noisy mechanics and put a camera on it, you will have created the ultimate stealth drone. The government and military will pay big bucks for such a device. Before that happens, you should call this the "Operation Squeaky Eagle Project." Congratulations.

Great video and fantastic project. You are obviously very talented. My cats are certainly convinced - one just jumped from a chair, ran across the room and tried to catch the “bird” on the TV.
Very cool! The pigeons were defiantly scared of that huge hawk looking predator.. lol lol. I used to have a small wind up plastic one when i was a kid.. it flew great till it landed on the road one day.. we all know the end of that story! Lol. Yep i watched as it got crushed by a car driving bye.. lol lol.
Smoothest flapping motion I've seen in an ornithopter.
Wowzer that's so awesome great job with that ,,,, I'm deaf so I don't hear the noise ,,, but I ain't blind and I do model ,,,, I have never Seen anything else like this before wow you did it your first to mimic bird flight,,,, congrats you deserve it ,,,,, don't stop my friend ,,, if you came up with this ,,,, you got more in ya ,,,, keep up the great work and God bless Y'ALL ☺️

Отличная работа. Стабилый управляемый полет на фоне порывов ветра. Удачно решены вопросы аэродинамики, миханики и правильно подобраны материалы обеспечивающие эластичность и прочность крыльев. Теперь осталось придать вид и механическая птица сможет привлекать к себе внимание не только людей, но и пролетающих мимо хищников.)))

I have to say its one of the better ones I have seen. If you look at the slow mo of a bird flying you will notice that they actually throw their wings forward on the up stroke and pull air backwards on the down stroke, all most like paddling a boat. There are certain limitations of what we can do in this space and I am yet to see a design that is able to do more than the up and down. I would love to work on this project with you when you get back into it and it warms up.
Thats just brilliant !
Не останавливайтесь! 👍
