I always looked at ornithopters a cool novelty. You are the first to make me take this part of the RC sport more seriously. VERY well done. THAT is AWESOME!!!
Amazing design and flight....love the size and even in the "pigeon glide" it did great, I can imagine how well it will glide once you have a glide lock installed...def wish these were available to buy!
Like on another ornithopter video, you should have no problem with this gorgeous bird in getting an airport contract to keep flocks of birds away from the airport. Great job!
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.

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.
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.)))
Thanks for your reply: If you could stop the flapping motion In a position with less dihedral you would be able to thermal. Which my bring on another problem, with a bunch of small birds trying to chase it out of area LOL! Keep sharing the development of your very convincing bird of prey. Thanks!
Well done sir, well done. You could put a gps in there and program it to fly a pattern over a farmers field. That would scare the hell out of anything eating his crop.
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.
DUDE ! THAT THING IS FREAKIN AWSOME !!!!!! If you ever put together a kit or want to sell a built one , put me down for one, it looks just like the egales that ride the thermals out where i am, i join them with a glider and fpv gear but to join them with something like that would be a mind blowing experience. I want one man , seriously
If you were an eagle, would you mind a thing like that flying around? Do they get used to it, thinking it's just a nice kind of glider? Have fun, you're absolutely right, this looks awsome.
Amazing. I would love to see and hear the 3D gearbox version fly. I have seen several ornithopters fly, some factory-built, but none that fly as well or as realistically as yours. This is a remarkable achievement.
Bonsoir, C'est vraiment super. Et digne de Léonard de Vinci. Avec une caméra embarquée ce doit être intéressant pour l'approche des oiseaux ou autres animaux. 👏😉 S.R
Excellent! I didn't think ot eas possible to recreate the movement of a birds wing though. As I understand it, they don't simply flap up and down, but go up, grab the air and somehow push it down and backwards. If so, you must have a heck of a lot of linkage inside the wings. Beautiful bird. Realistic too, just need some oil to get rid of the squeek. 😊
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 .
@@@MARCIALTECH Maybe so, but what an incredibly interesting proyotype! A person could live to be a 100 y/o and never know these things existed. I've been building and flying r/c planes for 40 years now and about the only thing that's changed is the advantage of smaller electronics. The principle of how lift is created over a fixed wing is very simple and easy to achieve, but I'm sure you know that. But that, that thing..! LOL! Wow. The mechanics involved in recreating the movement of a bird's wing just boggles my mind! No wonder it squeeks, I imagine there's a lot of linkage inside it to move those big wings. What surprised me the most was the length of the flight. Given the amount of air resistance a wing must encounter when it flaps, both in the upward and the downward stroke, I would've thought your battery would be depleted a lot sooner. But what do I know, I think I'm just old fashioned. My kids think I'm just old. I'm still playing with toys that were designed in the late 1930's! 😉 (the J-3 Cub happens to be my favorite) Great video! Very impressive, too. You did an excellent job flying it, especially considering how much movement is going on up there! My eyes and brain instictively thought a wing had come off an airplane every time it flapped! 😲
@@@MARCIALTECH Wait a minute, you mean an aluminum gear box is responsible for the wings movement? Then this ornithopter is custom built and designed from scratch, isn't it? And I'll bet you're the person that did it. Huh, maybe my kids are right. I'd never heard of 3D printers until just a few months ago. And you mean you can "print" plastic gears that'll be sturdy enough to withstand the forces required to move such a large wing? You must have hold a degree in Aeronautical Engineering or similar. At first I was under the impression that this was the latest toy you could buy right off the shelf. I apologize for having such a thought. I'm curious then. A large ornithopter like this one requires a relatively slow flap to keep it aloft due to its' large wing area and relatively low weight. Buildng an even larger ornithopter is undoubtedly very attainable, but what about a smaller one? Could a hummingbird's movement be replicated? The speed at which the wings would have to move would consume lots of power. A larger battery would consequently then cause weight to be another deciding factor. I would think that it would be impossible to recreate a hummingbird that could actually hover. And a scale sized butterfly would be out of the question I'm sure. Nano technology isn't that advanced yet, is it? Up until a few hours ago, I didn't think even a large bird could be mimicked. I need to read up on current events a little more often...
@@@MARCIALTECH Watching the video again, I'm still amazed. Once it's all ironed out, painted and finished, you should add a recorder that's controlled remotely and plays a screech whenever you choose! That would freak out other birds and people as well. If you go one step further I'm sure you could find a white gooey substance and fabricate some bomb bay doors near the tail and... well, you get the rest. I think I want one... But I'm sure I couldn't afford one.
@@xMRPx The gearbox put very little amount of stress on the motor and makes the motor more efficient than propeller driven RC plane of similar wingspan. I used a small 1200 mah 4 cell battery on this prototype.
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 .
This bird is very slow compare to a passenger airlines plus doesn't have the ability to carry heavy payload, a firecrackers maybe but not explosives. A quad copter drone can fly faster.
MARCIALTECH Planes don't even start if there's birds close by. You don't want your "bird" sucked into a jet engine, do you? Angry pilot, angry passengers, angry FAA, angry cops looking for you. Good luck, it looks wonderful. I hope for you that YOUR company is going to build and sell it.
This can be many times efficient with single way wind allow cut in the wings surface ... This is my 15 years old thinking of my childhood. When I see these experiment then I see if that idea has been applied or not ...anyway ..Great work..
Wow i have been wanting to build one .. its the aerodynamics that look really complicated to me. But as a get go my idea was to build something that flaps slower like this one not crazy fast like some of the smaller ones i have seen as that doesnt look natural at all. at a distance this thing will look exactly like a real life giant bird. Do you have any plans on how you built this any drawings and stuff and the equipment you used for it i would like to use this as a base point and improve upon if i can. Thanks for your efforts and great to see you have built such an amazing machine.
