A bit of a prototype for an ornithoptor with folding wings. Simply throttle up to get it flapping, and VTOL up to close wings for a dive. Little rough around the edges, but it works! Flying requires careful management of speed, but I've reached the top of Krakabola with it.
The wings are shaped based on the joints and feathers of an eagle, and I might try making another based on the wings of a Falcon. If anyone wants to modify it, feel free!
