That was marvellous! It shows his pure determination and hardwork to get that thing up and flying. I like the idea of hooking up the bird to a string to feel the thrust generated by the flapping wings.!.. just excellent.
Long time back, I have heard from my cousin that there is a person from chennai who has made ornis. I think it should be Nandakumar. Does he fly regularly or come to the flying field anytime?

I say hats off just considering the fact that Nandu did this in 2002-2003 when access to motors , ESC's etc was poor in India and brushed can motors was all you could get {:)}
He is not regular in flying but when he does it is most likely on ECR .
He has recently completed a Quad Rotor and sucessfully hovered it but unable to fly futher as he is not used to helis , the has set up the process logic for mode 1 .
He is more into building
