Hello, This is my Ornithopter project. I am trying to design a mechanical bird. I want it to in the end to be able to flap it wings there fore genrating lift to fly.
The goal is for this project to be able to
Build a lightweight ornithopter capable of stable, powered flight using a simple and reliable flapping mechanism.
Roadmap
| Phase | Focus | Status |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Wing Mechanism | Design and build a reliable gearbox to articulate wings up and down. | 🔄 In Progress |
| 2. Wing Design | Prototype wings and measure wing designs to maximize lift when attached the the gearbox. | ⏳ Planned |
| 3. Tail & Electronics | Create a tail and assemble electronics to begin early test flights. | ⏳ Planned |
| 4. Debugging & Testing | Iterate, iterate, iterate. | ⏳ Planned |
