The extraordinary ability of birds to fly has inspired mankind in the development of flying mechanisms for centuries. Each new construction attempt strives to approximate their active flight as closely as possible. In the final part, a mechanical ornithopter in the flight phase is designed and manufactured. First, the natural principles of bird flight were studied, followed by the fabrication of all components using 3D printing, which were then assembled and tested in a functional mechanical system. The result is a functional ornithopter that successfully demonstrates the basic characteristics of a bird's movement in flight.
