Howl's Ornithopter

Auto Credit Based on winterro's ORNITHOPTER CHALLENGE!!

It was a prototype for the mechanism of an Ornithopter from the movie "Howl's moving castle", and it looks great, kinda hypnotic. But then I thought: "Hey, each section flaps seperately, how about I make them detachable?" And it looked mesmerizing. And I decided to upload it seeing I haven't uploaded anything in a while.

So here you go. Set VTOL all the way up on start, Ag 1-5 for detachables, and best to deactivate 8 after you're left with just one flapper.

Mechanism based of my smartbird, with some tweaks.
