RoninFrog Posted November 6, 2024 Share Posted November 6, 2024 (edited) Construct an ornithopter capable of sustained flight. Rules: No lifting surfaces can make a full rotation on any axis. No engines (engine thrust) allowed. Breaking Ground is probably really helpful but pure stock is allowed as well. Mod submissions (if any) will get their own category File-edited or overclocked submissions (if any) will get their own category No Alt+F12 Submissions: No submissions I haven't actually created a working ornithopter but I've been trying. If I get a working prototype I'll post it here. Edited November 7, 2024 by RoninFrog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, you can get propulsion with batteries, and you could probably create a ramp and such. But sustained flight with no engines? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuel cells, solar panels, or RTG's should ideally be good for power generation for sustained flight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
