The wing hinges cycle up and down when throttle is applied, flapping the wings.
Apply 25% throttle for take off until you reach 100+ miles per hour, then pitch up.
She's really friggin fast, have fun!

Thank you for this! Tearing apart your designs helped me build my odonatapter by demonstrating how to make a hinge rotator flap, so I didn't have to use a complicated array of cyclic pistons and flappy rotators and hinges to drive the wings.
This is extremely underrated. Cool design!
@Grilll LMAO thanks!
