Ornithopter (definition): An ornithopter is a manned aircraft or an unmanned flying machine in which the driving airfoils have a flapping, reciprocating, or oscillating motion, instead of the rotary motion used in airplanes and helicopters
- How Birds Ornithopters Fly
You may be surprised to learn that a bird or ornithopter flies in much the same way as an airplane The wings produce lift in the same way as an airplane, simply by their forward motion through the air To understand how this works, let's start with the simple case of gliding flight
