To celebrate the new Dune movie, i created my own practical interpritation of an ornithopter! Like in the books, it features labding skis, a vertical jet takeoff, and the ability to brave strong winds. Controls: Activate1 - activate takoff thrusters (once clear of the ground, begin flapping wings and switch this off). Throttle - Flap wings. Enjoy!

@FNSO I have one
@CallsignArtemis I made one too, just uploaded it and checked out what others have made
I made this craft over a year ago. Maybe I will make a new one. @FNSO
Could you make the other version with the guns
I attempted to minimize that as much as possible. It used to oscillate up to 60 degrees!
Nice.. wished the cockpit view not shakes as much ..but thats expected
