@@ultralaggerREV1 Yep, I am quite aware but building it is not for necessity so that leaves a hobby and hobbies don't have a source of funds unless someone funds them.
@@gld1010 Funding is less the issue as that just requires a good project proposal to the right people. Even a proof of concept that is a one off can get a green light. Also while it would certainly be more expensive than current civilian helicopters on the market, on a very rough estimate of what would go into one I don't actually see this being much more expensive than the average military helicopter or fighter jet, and plenty of those are made every year. The challenge here is more the materials you mentioned. The wings need to be ultra light and ultra strong to survive that kind of motion. We have possible materials that could maybe be crafted into the wings needed, but nothing that's been tested on this kind of structure to my current knowledge. actually I think the bigger hold back is just the efficiency of the design. You're average helicopter is probably more efficient in relation to it's performance and how much energy is put into it (single spinning set of blades vs 8 individually powered wings). This would never hit wide scale market because helicopters exist and would simply be easier to make use of. However, don't write off some aerospace engineer making a 1:1. Practicality is not an impassible barrier, in fact people make incredibly impractical things all the time because it's fun, or just to prove it can be done. And with the more widespread knowledge granted by the internet (be it a blessing and a curse), and ever expanding sciences, it could be anyone. Maybe only 1 will ever be made, maybe several. In a big lab or somebodies barn. Maybe its a hundred years out, or 10. "will not happen" has been proven wrong plenty of times, especially in the aerospace field.
They would need to find a molusc that has a very powerful and fast muscle to move the wings, then figure where to electrocute it to make it move without killing it
@@NithinJune Yeah, tell that to those two crazy bicycle mechanics who think they can make a machine fly like a bird. Or that dude who think he can let two people talk to each other across the country through metal wires. Or that company that thinks they can send moving pictures through the air. That's all science fiction!
The fact FS does not allow you to take off from helipad with this thing is hilarious... how TF do they expect people to taxi an ornithopter like an airliner?
a Ornithopter in real life would be crazy, it would be unbelievably loud 8 wings flapping at supersonic speeds, and the vibration inside of it would be extremely intense.
I understand that you can't really build that thing in 1:1 because of various problems, but I wonder if you could build it in the scale of an actual dragonfly? As a reconnaissance drone this thing would be great because of how it could theoretically move horizontally in all directions without altering its pitch or roll angle. It should therefore be way more agile than any other drone. Also, I heard it's more efficient and the gliding mechanism could really prove itself for long distances.
El freno de las alas te ayudara a no aterrizar oegando esos barrigazos!!😂 Bonita livery....la verdad es que el sistema de vuelo puede dar muchisimo de si a muchos gamers...postquemador, freno de alas, alas en modo planeador y el picado ....una vez blindeas esos comandos, se hace muy divertido de volarlo.🎉❤
It would be really cool if the Ornithopter was ever developed but I don't see since it would cheaper in both materials and energy to have Thrust vectoring and smaller micro thrusters for the same agility.
@@RegisTraiterI agree but really don't see it since thrust vectoring and micro-thrusters are in the now and cheaper to make and power. Maybe if fuel is gone and need a fusion power source, then I can see a need for this and longer ranges?
@@gld1010And maybe Santa Claus will loan us his reindeer and Tinkerbell will sprinkle them with fairy dust. It's a terrible design in general. It can neither autorotate nor glide, which means that in an emergency it becomes a brick. It's exotic enough to be in scifi and pretty to look at, but it will never be a real thing.
While a real one would not be built the same way it is in the movies for technical reason, an ornithopter is indeed possible. Dragonfly style flight is the most efficient and precise kind of aerial movements nature has ever produced, it is backed with hundreds of millions of years of evolution. Most people who criticize such way of flying are generally unaware of the actual movement needed to fly like a dragonfly. It is not doing constantly « up down » like in the movie. At full potential it can do everything any helicopters can do but better and even fonction like a plane if needed. This technology is also already into the « design testing » phase, with small drones. Tho dont expect it to come for larger vehicles anytime soon.
@@tonyworldtravel76 awesome. I need white for the additional contrast. The ranked speed runs have some dark areas and you can lose sight of the dark aircraft
"Permission to buzz the tower" takes on a vastly different meaning with an Ornithopter.
*buzz* GAh damn Its the scheewpid ornithopter again *BUZZ*
Bro flies a VTOL aircraft that has no wheels and still lands it like a plane
Jesus loves you. He is your savior. Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand!!イエス・キリストはあなたを愛して。 イエス様を信頼してください。 天国は近づいています、あなたは悔い改めるべきです。
It's so much bigger than I expected
that's what she said.
@@naronga6857beat me to it😂
During production they said they on average are 75' long and 11 tons

I wonder what the air tower thinks about that dive
i can think of 1 reaction: WTF, WTF, WTF
To every aerospace engineer. I challenge you to build a 1:1 functional and air-worthy Ornithopter.
No balls
Will not happen, too expensive or the materials are not available yet. Cheaper to build Thrust vectoring aircraft with micro-thrusters.
@@gld1010 that’s why engineers are called engineers
To make things happen

Absolutely the most fun aircraft for just flying around and exploring!
Imagine if someone managed to build one of these for real and registered it as an experimental aircraft and flew it into Oshkosh!

bro it’s sci fi.
the physics don’t work irl

that would be a mechanical Nightmare. The Parts would be worn off within just a short Time
@@NithinJuneThey work for a dragonfly :) - hard to scale up I guess
Still sore about the Canadian Airforce retiring the Ornathopter .
Right? We've only been using it a few thousand years since the War with the Machines, it's still basically new
Press 'E' to do a wing brake and you wont have to land so hard.. E or W can't remember precisely. Nice livery.
Canadian markings 😊💜🇨🇦
First we take Manhattan...
That’s a huge dragonfly
An RCAF ornithopter, thaz hilarious!
That livery is outstanding. :D
The fact FS does not allow you to take off from helipad with this thing is hilarious... how TF do they expect people to taxi an ornithopter like an airliner?
the drop was epic, but what's with the landing?
Great livery! 😀
It's a giant ass dragonfly.
Yea if I was in San Francisco I too would use a highly improbable full size flight machine to escape
a Ornithopter in real life would be crazy, it would be unbelievably loud 8 wings flapping at supersonic speeds, and the vibration inside of it would be extremely intense.
Fabulous ❤ Astonishing
Nice rondel!
How’d you get that livery for it?
How did you get a custom livery? Did you make it by yourself somehow?
Downloaded livery from this place by searching Ornithopter: flightsim.to/discover/Ornithopter
Странное ощущение что летун рассчитанный еле еле вместить 6 человек, габаритами больше лайнера на 250 пассажиров.

I wonder at what point that buzz from the wings would become deadly.
Me recuerda al nuevo dron que puseron en war robots es como lo del video pero en verde i creo que sin tripulasion
I think it needs a costguard livery
Semper Paratus!
Soo big dragonfly. .😁

The materials that would be needed, specifically for the wings, probably won't exist or be market-viable for the next 100 years.

@@trigz8626I suggest that before you attempt to "fonction" as a critic, you learn some basics first.
Can’t wait for the partnership for the release of “jail for lesbians #93” with the matching Dildopter…
I am waiting for the real prototype

Stop playing on high fov, why people like everything stretched out is beyond me.
We literally see in high FOV
@@HertaSeggs A computer screen literally does not cover our entire FOV
That's just how zooming out in flight simulator works
That landing seemed really painful, i felt my balls ache there.
Imagine if this was real the vibration on the thing would be crazy... females would love this
