This ornithopter's mechanism is based on those "toy rubber band powered ornithopters" (I have one) and I just wanted to try to make it in simpleplanes. Throttle up for full speed and AG 2 for brake.
And it has no gyroscope.

@DustyT33 looks good!
@DustyT33 Yeah, I took a day off from SP that turned into a couple of weeks and then into a few months.
This plane you have here is very smooth for a flapper. Not quite as fast as what we were doing when I went AWOL, but much more stable and practical.
@atgxtg Hello, I haven't seen you for a while.
This one is really something special.
Tricky to fly but a very unique and creative design. Great job, I love it!
Amazing
IT ACTUALLY FLIES!!!
