Guys,I have been reading the plans of the freebird ornithopter and I just thought that I could make a robot(got the idea from Prateek's thread.Thanks prateek :)) instead for a science fair at school.The ornithopter looks complex.The robots seem quite easy.And,I've got majority of the stuff to make the robot apart form the switches.For the ornithopter,I've got nothing.

I am not sure on what I should make.Please advise.

Here are the links

I have decided that I will make the ornithopter for the competition but I will make the robot for the fun of it.

I also thought for a few days to make tiny ornithopter.

For your information, I use readily available materials.

Balsa replacement for tiny model, I will use Ice Cream wooden piece for wing cross hinge and rotor axle frame (Fuselage).

Carrybag for wing.

PushRod - Ball point pen Refill part or wood with wire (Gems Clip part / 1000 watt unburnt heater coil /tin from Mosquito coil support).

My thought only for next project.

Thanks.
We have to unite and to prove ourself to make indigenous products as well as marketing / Canvasing them. I'm sure we must achieve success if we try unitedly.
