Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. Thank you very much for your time. Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them). Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI). Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy. Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful. Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI). Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad). Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning! Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures. Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement. It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them. (19-22 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).. God said : Say, “We believe in Allah, and in what was revealed to us, and in what was revealed to Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the Patriarchs, and in what was given to Moses and Jesus, and in what was given to the prophets from their Lord. We do not differentiate between any of them. And to Him, we surrender.” (2:136 / Translated by Community) Salam (Peace) ----------------
while making machines running on electricity is relatively quick and easy Mechanical machines are fascinating because you can see the inner and outer workings spin and move to achieve a goal
That glasses cad shot might be the coldest bit of sfx I've ever seen in a diy video, all your production is awesome with super cool visualisations, great work
Back in the '90's when I was into paintball, the guns would freeze up when using CO2 unless you added an expansion chamber inline between the gun and the cartridge. The expansion chamber is basically just a thick aluminum tube to let the CO2 expand and absorb the temperature shock before it gets into the moving parts, sort of like a heatsink I suppose.
I was thinking about an expansion chamber to reduce freezing as well. Wondering too if the different materials (aluminum/print matrix) are an issue due to thermal contraction rate.
the real problem here was solved by tom stanton a while back: CO2 is too dense, and requires materials that are not weight efficient to keep it pressurized. regular air compresses better than CO2, and can be contained in a plastic bottle, much lighter than the aluminum CO2 cartridges. the net effect is more power for less weight. the downside is volume is increased.
@@franklinmcLaughlin i imagine it like balancing a broom vertically in your hand. You want the bristles (heavy part) to be at the top while you move the handle (light part) around to adjust the balance. Having the inertia away from the force point you can rotate around the COM and maintain control. This is a messy explanation that I'm sure Wikipedia could do better 😂
This should be shown in schools to show the real meaning behind research, measurement, trial, failure and rework as essential parts of success. Congratulations on a great presentation, and thanks for sharing it.
Dude, the production value of this video is nuts. All the animations, the editing, the script, the music... Damn, son. Congratulations on 1,000,000 subscribers in advance. *Subscribing right now.
ya i just hit the montage of creating the air engine and had to pause to come find this comment. Bro ... the flashing sunglasses transition to CAD software ... chefs kiss bro no homo.
From idea, to research, to design, consultation, implementation, testing, re testing ..re- everything, bro this project was a huge success in my opinion.. Great work
The editing, the animation, the creativity, and the determination are out of this world. The best science experimental/designing channel, no doubt. I would appreciate a video of how you got here... the skills, the tools, the researching methodology...

Man, I am BLOWN away by the amount of work, thought and sheer dedication you put into this project! Also, the editing in your videos is incredibly good and shows your attention to even such details. Simply, hats off. Keeping my fingers crossed for you!
The statement at 15:18 is known as the "pendulum fallacy". You can't stabilize a hover by placing a mass under the lifting rotor, because as the plane tilts the vector of thrust tilts with it, and there's no restoring force. Tom Stanton has a good demonstration video of this.

Stunning. The entire project (which includes the video) is a magical journey into very essence of invention, engineering and determination. I know from first hand experience, it doesn't feel very inspirational as you're doing the hard yards, but you should be exceptionally proud of this entire production. It is inspirational. Thank you for taking the time to share so much.
love your insistence on keeping things non-electric, i rly like intricate and specified little mechanisms (which is why i like watch repairing so much) but the moment electricity enters the field i have no clue whats going on, its honestly refreshing to see that fun new thingamajigs can still be made without needing a battery
If this guy is editing his own videos… he’s gotta be one of the most all around skilled creators on TH-cam. The technical ability, narrative quality, and production quality are unparalleled. I will watch every video you make in your career. I can tell you that right now.
This video shows some weird dude building a completely useless contraption that doesn't even work, but at the same time, this perfectly shows the spirit of curiosity, engineering and using both fail and success in order to learn and improve. This was very interesting to watch and you also did a great job with filming and narrating it. Thank you very much!

Dude is a freaking engineering genius. Just remember, there is NO ONE anywhere to ask for tips or thoughts on this type of project. No books or classes you can take. He just tackled it. (Lubrication of all moving parts & especially the air-vane motor seems necessary to me though)
This channel is going to explode. Your presentation and the work you're doing is truly excellent. Can't wait to see you hit a million subs, I doubt it will be long.
The editing in this video is next level! The craftsmanship and engineering is so easy to understand with the graphics, transitions, and narration. I am blown away!
It seems with the plastic mechanism and leaking, that the pressure deforms the delrin and allows small gaps to form on the surface of the manifold. I would suggest using a recessed housing with some rubber gasket material or sealant. I'd also like to see a button release for the co2 like you were planning, it seems like when you finally pierce the cartridge you still need an extra twist to get full power, and that's wasted pressure you could be using for thrust. Fantastic editing, you really put a lot of work into this, and I feel that if you want to avoid wear on parts that oscillate, you'd be better trying to design with compliant mechanism techniques rather than letting the parts rub against each other.
Hayranlıkla ve biraz kıskanarak izledim bütün videoyu. Tebrik ederim, muhteşem bir mühendislik mücadelesi olmuş. Doğanın, böylesine zor problemlerin üstesinden bu kadar mükemmel çözümlerle gelebilmesi muhteşem bir şey.
I'm only 2 minutes in writing this comment. Its really cool the level of appreciation you show to the humming birdman, i never knew how intricate and precise it's movement is, also its really cool that it keeps it's head perfectly still with all of that movement.
This is why i love engineering so much...its all about our love of solving a problem and learn through the process...which inspire us and amaze others...thank you for this ignition❤
This is one of the best engineering videos I've ever seen, point blank period. Huge props to you man. Between the production quality, the transitions, showing the actual engineering processes with flawlessly simple explanations of complex topics. Like dude, this awesome. I subscribed and recommend everybody else that likes engineering do the same

I’m in my 20s and I never got into engineering but thanks to TH-cam and creators like you, I really want to learn and create stuff. It’s so cool and inspiring. Love your content 🙌
Tom Stanton concluded that using pressurized plastic bottles is more economical by weight than CO2 cartridges when making his air motors, maybe try modifying it for one of those? He explains in his most recent video that 1 2l plastic bottle holds 14x the air of one CO2 cartridge and weighs 20g less.
@@worksbydesignIf you don't want to do it with electricity and you don't have enough power from compressed air, then why not just use steam? You could easily feed your engine and make a small steam boiler with a burner, it would weigh about the same as a co2 tank but it would have more power and last longer.
Incredible work and problem-solving! Your skill and experience in this far outweighs any suggestion I can make, but I'll throw this in just in case. The gunk from the CO2 cartridges may be oil, as some cartridges have oil to lubricate whatever mechanism they attach to (often paintball guns, and your supplier may have simply re-branded that type). You may need food-grade CO2, which should not have those contaminants. It's also possible that the contaminants are from the hose supply instead, and just weren't noticed immediately. On the other hand, some small amount of lubrication might be needed for the system. Also, the gearing probably adds considerable weight while reducing efficiency. If it's possible to get the RPM you need by adjusting the motor size or properties, that might be helpful. But, I don't know how that would interact with the sizing need to control the CO2 flow rate to prevent the freezing. Finally, there is probably a way to get that figure-8 movement that hummingbirds use, and (completely guessing, but it seems right) that shape might be a way of efficiently redirecting energy instead of losing it in the back-and-forth motion, and it probably has aerodynamic benefits by better utilizing the 'angle of attack' of the wing. A 4-bar linkage can generate that movement - there's an 11-page published paper "Design and analysis of "figure-8" trajectory flapping wing mechanism based on crank rocker" (by Shan Tang, in 2022), and a 162-page master's thesis entitled "Design of a 'Figure-8' Spherical Motion Flapping Wing for Miniature UAV's", (by Zohaib Parvaiz Rehmat, in 2009), which probably cover the topic in great detail. I'm looking forward to the next video!
Watching this go from concept to design to creation was beyond incredible! As a huge fan of Dune, ornithopters are one of my favorite things and anything even remotely similar is an amazing feat of engineering in my mind! Absolutely love how the ending creation even Sounds like a hummingbird!!!
It is literally the propulsion method of a Dune ornithopter(expelled gas thrust + auxiliary lift wings). I'm sure if you had lockmart behind it they'd find a way to get it airborne untethered and the avionics figured out(they were doing even crazier stuff before fly-by-wire)
A quick question on the motor choice - why go from compression to rotation to reciprocating? Would compression direct to reciprocating be more efficient? @TomStanton has done a lot of work on creating a very efficient air engine - of course, you'd need power on the up and down stroke...
I suppose it was because I initially wanted it to work with a spring like a wind up toy. So I designed the wing mechanism around that rotating spring. Could be a weight saving and more efficient route to take your approach on the next design.
@@worksbydesign Any reason you didn't go with the time-honored rubber band? Those tend to output pretty much constant force as well (they behave differently from springs at a microscopic level).
the ideation process, the losses, the wins, the design, the video elements, everything is so professional. The minute elements like the book, the wing design blueprints... everything makes it perfect and professional, best-est
Hello, as an Iranian, I congratulate you for your talent and you really have a strong will and perseverance, I hope you will always be successful in all projects.
I thought it was an interesting choice to go with a rotary motor and then convert it to a flapping motion (with the cool, but ultimately inefficient linkages and gearbox). I think you might be able to get a much higher power / weight ratio by directly driving the wings with a piston based design. Something sort of along the lines of a double-acting steam engine, where the piston is driven in both directions. You'd need a double-acting design to avoid the necessity of a flywheel. You might need to get a little clever with your valve system however, as without a flywheel you'll need to ensure that there's no possibility of the piston getting stuck at either end of its travel. However, if you can get it to work you can likely shave off a bunch of weight and reduce mechanical losses.
Very nice project! One thought, you need an oscillating motion for the flapflap. Maybe its simpler to use a linear oscilation air pressure motor as energy source. Like the piston of a steam engine which is valve controlled pressurized from both sides alternating. Then you can transfere the motion only with linkages without rotary motion in between. One issue could be, that there would be no fly wheel to hold momentum in phases with no pressure...
As a piece of engineering, that little motor is just beautiful. If I had to make a guess about the compressed co2 issue on the 3d printed version, I would say it's quite likely because of the heavy texture of the 3d print. It is likely providing a large surface area for the ice crystals to form. You may have some success giving it some sort of treatment that will make a smoother surface. With FDM ABS prints, an atomised acetone treatment works a treat. However that looks like an SLA powder print maybe but there is probably some kind of solvent that would achieve the same effect.
You've done a great job at optimizing the wing and nozzels, the type of engine as well was a spot-on choice. Maybe hose or tube tail connected to a water bottle could serve both as a ballast and air tank, helping it fly more stable and with more autonomy than a c02 cannister. (perhaps a mechanical dragonfly?) The material of choice for the compressed air engine blades is also going to be important, teflon is perfect for metal contact and sealing (with a minuscule amount of lubrication). Keep up the great work
Haven’t been this immediately charmed and captivated by a maker channel since the first time I stumbled across Stuff Made Here. Great video and editing! Cheers 🎉
As a mechanical engineer myself the video is a blast to watch and the gear is accurate the material selection to the design which slightly resembles some of the solid powered jet engine used for space,kudos to the great work man!
I think this has been mentioned already but the stability issue described is probably due to the ornithopter not being perfectly vertical at release, and as it tips, the lift vector shifts in the direction it tips. You lose some lift (probably enough that you lose altitude since it just barely hovers) and instead get some thrust (the ornithopter starts drifting "forward"). Man your video is absolutely insane, the amount of talent that goes into this whole thing honestly blows my mind and makes me question what am I doing as an engineer lol. Subscribed
This is a great video that shows the engineering process! Thanks! Not sure whether already mentioned, but more stability could be gained by using three thrusters instead of two, distributing the thrust force more evenly.
Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. Thank you very much for your time. Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them). Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI). Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy. Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful. Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten.

Great video, I had no idea those were being used on big ships. I had heard about the drones 3D printing a building before, but hearing about it and seeing it again just now gave me a crazy idea. With smaller drones there is no need to be limited to layer printing a large object. There could be many of them acting more like wasps, making structures like how wasps build their nests. They would land and hold onto the structure to conserve energy and build up small areas at a time. Imagine a swarm of these things, they could easily track their own progress to make sure that it is shaping up properly.
The TH-cam algorithm has started recommending me plenty of small-ish DIY/Engineering creators like you that produce insanely high quality videos, and I'm ALL for it. You got a new sub! :)
We need more engineering videos like this. Great editing great quality. After seeing the video. I would just say SubhanAllah after all the material science and advancement we cannot make hummingbird ❤
I enjoy the small design features not even explained like the built in plan to have the initial air inlet and then a single hole addition going to the more likely to work method. just good practice to do things like that
I'm thinking of building an ornithopter and I came across your video. In the beginning I was just going to like the video but after seeing the quality of editing, explanations, animations and more, I can't not subscribe. Amazing content, captivating as hell, cant wait to see more
Very impressive production values in your video! You strike a good balance between entertaining and educating and I totally feel your pain as you went through all of those iterations. I wish you luck as your research continues!
Titanium parts and direct piston driven oscillating the wings and for the wings start with a carbon fiber skeleton with the wings made out of a flexible epoxy resin and to strengthen the wings there is very lightweight carbon fiber mesh to support the entire flexible wing so it would be skeleton-light mesh-encased in thin flexible resin. Oh yea, that black smegma on the aluminum is an oxide mixed with something in the co2 probably, IDK exactly tho
I can't imagine how much effort u have kept on the project. I love the way you working, testing and, Documentation. That rapid prototyping and refining the system to the most efficient machine. Hatts off from, India. Please keep the good work.
First video of yours Iv seen, and I’m now subscribed! The amount of time, work, editing and everything in this video took so much work and it’s amazing! Looking forward to this channel blowing up!
Have you considered a pressure regulator for the CO2 cartridge? I don't know how small and light you could make it but running at similar pressure as the air compressor would avoid the leaking issue as well as prolonging the flight time. It's just an idea. I'm no expert here
Beautiful work, I have seen many projects similar to yours but your way of telling your story and your process leaves me with high expectations. I hope you keep going! Again, what a good job you have done.
It’s insane that you’re such a small channel. The effort you put into this video is incredible! I wish you success in the future and can’t wait to watch. P. S. Remember, you’re here to educate and entertain, keep politics out of the videos.
Awesome project dude, I was wondering if that black powder might be residual nylon powder from the MJF process that's being blown out of the binding material by the sudden high pressure + temperature change, which would gum up the system. Also having 63% of your thrust being rocket based is 100% legal ;P The way I see it, a hummingbird doesn't use compressed gas to move so it doesn't have to worry about exhaust, but yours does so it's just a side-effect. I look forward to seeing any progress you choose to make on it!
@@worksbydesignAdding to this, the quick release of CO2 like that is bound to generate some frozen CO2, which could additionally erode your 3D printed material, since it's softer than the aluminum.
It's great and very satisfying to see it fly at the end but for me, the best part of this video is watching the whole process, watching you running into issues and trying to come up with a solution to solve them. Oh, and awesome editing, by the way!!
One significant difference between the operation of the ornithopter and wing movement of a hummingbird seems to be happening at the base of the wings. The ornithopter keeps the base of the wings parallel to the body, whereas the base of the hummingbird's wing moves back and forth, along with the rest of the wing. Perhaps try to allow that piece of graphite to rotate around the wing spar, at least to some extent. Keeping it aligned seems to waste a lot of energy by pushing air back and forth without generating additional lift.
*Thanks for making this interesting video! As a NASA engineer we studied the Eagle for flight and figured out that if we could master it's flight design and build it up into an aircraft that could hold 130 people and fly from LA to NY for only $360.00 in fuel which is 97X more fuel efficient than any jet. The trip would take 12 hours instead of 5 hours but tickets would be profitable to sell at under $99.00 per round trip. We would still need to add a small engine for cabin pressure, cooling and heating, lights and all the other gizmos that make a modern plane fly and fun. This may take more fuel than the actual propulsion aspect of the project. Work to mimic nature still continues at NASA today.*
Thank you, sir. This was intensely interesting. Most people get discouraged when faced with so many engineering problems, but you keep on being creative, I admire that. Also, thanks for the information regarding OnShape. I compared OnShape with many other CAD-type software and it beat them all hands down. The designs are public ( in free version ) if you want privacy ( it comes with paid version ). The exports are unlimited with free plan in a bunch of different formats so you have did us all a favour recommending it. Thank you again and good luck with all your future builds. 😊
Your lock video was the first I discovered. I saw the hose attached on the ornithopter & thought it would be cool if it could be done with a CO2 cartridge. I can see some of the frustration and had one major thought: that the puncturing of the CO2 would need to happen before releasing all of the energy at once. The best idea I could come to would be a sealing mechanism that was linked to a release of both chamber and the ornithopter itself. Think of the water rocket . . . it had a base that would release the water rocket and let the pressure escape at the same time.
Maybe a gasket that is spring loaded with enough pressure to remove entirely when triggered. There may even be places where the gearing, or release mechanism could benefit with ball bearings
Amazingly well done video and use of CAD, 3D printing.. and most of all, your incredible ingenuity, engineering, and perseverance. I've had an idea for a drone with a single propeller (or a pair of counter-rotating ones) which i put into some of the scifi stories i've written.. and have always found ornithopters fascinating. You've really got talent and determination. Bravo!
I’ll never understand how some people are just so damn smart to figure out engineering stuff like this. Designing it and drawing and then just figuring it out… really amazing to see.
I think this is the first video that gives a lot of the engineering details that doesn't get boring, amazing animation and great video, you deserve more subscribers 🔥🔥
This is an incredible piece of engineering and a very well produced video! Be wary of the pendulum rocket fallacy, having your center of mass below your center of thrust does NOT help flight stability, so you’ll have to find some other means of stability
bro, Instead of doing my architecture thesis presentation due in 4 days, I'm here being amazed by your video production skills. you deserve a sub. and hopefully you can share the specs of your pc to us, it runs so smooth.
Co2 needs an expansion chamber, you lose half of the pressure by using it directly, also a regulator would be good, from 800 down to the usable 130 psi u need. You could try with airsoft greengas 3d printed tank should hold the pressure, butane is liquified at around 130-160 psi
Awsome project and great engneering going on! CO2 suggestion: I had to deal a lot with those CO2 cartridges in my work, and we had this ice building up in our peircing point amd blocking the mechanism. The CO2 have relativley high freezing point and when moving from the the really high pressure inside the cartridge to atmosphere through a tiny hole, the gas expension causes freezing. We ended up replacing the CO2 cartridges with N2 cartridges which have much lower freezing point. It solved the issue.
How, in 3 measly videos, has your editing shot through the atmosphere like a laser? Dude you are by far the best one with these kinds of build videos. By all means keep it going. I'd love to see where you go. I would possibly like you to try something with electricity too. I could help with that or there are other youtubers you could ask. I'm pretty sure all of em would be willing to work with someone as skilled as you! Just thought I'd share this observation as well as shoot a shot at working with a guy like you! Keep doing what you do man, you're amazing!
The video editing is just so goddamn SLICK. If i ever make content you will be a *MAJOR* inspiration+goal to even get close to. Amazing project and video as usual!
Compressed air and oscillating wings has to be the most inefficient combination ever, but it's mighty impressive you got it to fly!!
Here you are ! I was thinking about you and maybe the fact that soda bottle can help him to get rid of the CO2 cartridge!
Its great to see the work you've done with compressed air engines, I might have to borrow some of those ideas in the future ;)
Agreed, using compressed air to oscillate the wings directly would be much more effective.
you know its inefficient when when the king of inefficient propulsion Tom Stanton comments about it
Literally was thinking of your engines when I saw this video
Came for the engineering, stayed for the storytelling. Killer work man, stoked to follow this project.
Much appreciated, thank you!

Back in the '90's when I was into paintball, the guns would freeze up when using CO2 unless you added an expansion chamber inline between the gun and the cartridge. The expansion chamber is basically just a thick aluminum tube to let the CO2 expand and absorb the temperature shock before it gets into the moving parts, sort of like a heatsink I suppose.
I was thinking about an expansion chamber to reduce freezing as well. Wondering too if the different materials (aluminum/print matrix) are an issue due to thermal contraction rate.
the real problem here was solved by tom stanton a while back: CO2 is too dense, and requires materials that are not weight efficient to keep it pressurized.
regular air compresses better than CO2, and can be contained in a plastic bottle, much lighter than the aluminum CO2 cartridges.
the net effect is more power for less weight. the downside is volume is increased.
Definitely a moisture problem as the gas freezes then melts , you want dry air the engines dealing with both air and fluid not accounted for!!!

You fell victim to the rocket pendulum fallacy. Still an extraordinary project. Awsome.
I was just about to comment that. Beat me to it.
You just saved me hours of troubleshooting for version 2, thank you!
Rocket pendulum? I’m guessing that the hose makes the bird dive harder, pointing more sideways instead of being able to straighten out?
@@franklinmcLaughlin a rocket or a plane should always be heavier in the front to be stable
@@franklinmcLaughlin i imagine it like balancing a broom vertically in your hand. You want the bristles (heavy part) to be at the top while you move the handle (light part) around to adjust the balance. Having the inertia away from the force point you can rotate around the COM and maintain control.
This is a messy explanation that I'm sure Wikipedia could do better 😂
This should be shown in schools to show the real meaning behind research, measurement, trial, failure and rework as essential parts of success. Congratulations on a great presentation, and thanks for sharing it.
Dude, the production value of this video is nuts. All the animations, the editing, the script, the music... Damn, son. Congratulations on 1,000,000 subscribers in advance. *Subscribing right now.
ya i just hit the montage of creating the air engine and had to pause to come find this comment. Bro ... the flashing sunglasses transition to CAD software ... chefs kiss bro no homo.
@@T3ddyRuxp1nShit, I'd even go half homo for production quality like that.
My thoughts exactly!
Same!
Bro, you write a bunch of hyper-congratulating BS for attention.
From idea, to research, to design, consultation, implementation, testing, re testing ..re- everything, bro this project was a huge success in my opinion.. Great work
The editing, the animation, the creativity, and the determination are out of this world. The best science experimental/designing channel, no doubt.
I would appreciate a video of how you got here... the skills, the tools, the researching methodology...
Yea Its better than discovery channel quality editing I mean it's better as a tv shows
Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. Thank you very much for your time.
Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them).
Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy.
Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).
Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning!
Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures.
Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement.
It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them.
(19-22 / Translated by Muhammad Asad)..
God said : Say, “We believe in Allah, and in what was revealed to us, and in what was revealed to Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the Patriarchs, and in what was given to Moses and Jesus, and in what was given to the prophets from their Lord. We do not differentiate between any of them. And to Him, we surrender.”

Man, I am BLOWN away by the amount of work, thought and sheer dedication you put into this project!
Also, the editing in your videos is incredibly good and shows your attention to even such details. Simply, hats off.
Keeping my fingers crossed for you!
The statement at 15:18 is known as the "pendulum fallacy". You can't stabilize a hover by placing a mass under the lifting rotor, because as the plane tilts the vector of thrust tilts with it, and there's no restoring force. Tom Stanton has a good demonstration video of this.
Suppose there was two mechanisms that countered each other?

Stunning. The entire project (which includes the video) is a magical journey into very essence of invention, engineering and determination. I know from first hand experience, it doesn't feel very inspirational as you're doing the hard yards, but you should be exceptionally proud of this entire production. It is inspirational. Thank you for taking the time to share so much.
love your insistence on keeping things non-electric, i rly like intricate and specified little mechanisms (which is why i like watch repairing so much) but the moment electricity enters the field i have no clue whats going on, its honestly refreshing to see that fun new thingamajigs can still be made without needing a battery
You are just like me! I have no idea whats going on when it comes to electricity either, basically magic
If this guy is editing his own videos… he’s gotta be one of the most all around skilled creators on TH-cam. The technical ability, narrative quality, and production quality are unparalleled. I will watch every video you make in your career. I can tell you that right now.
This video shows some weird dude building a completely useless contraption that doesn't even work, but at the same time, this perfectly shows the spirit of curiosity, engineering and using both fail and success in order to learn and improve. This was very interesting to watch and you also did a great job with filming and narrating it. Thank you very much!

Definitely the best ornithopter design I’ve seen and possibly one of the best self-designed flying mechanism.
Man, I can't get over how well this video was done. Concept, presentation, explanation, engagement. ... just superb.
Dude is a freaking engineering genius. Just remember, there is NO ONE anywhere to ask for tips or thoughts on this type of project. No books or classes you can take. He just tackled it. (Lubrication of all moving parts & especially the air-vane motor seems necessary to me though)
This channel is going to explode. Your presentation and the work you're doing is truly excellent. Can't wait to see you hit a million subs, I doubt it will be long.
The editing in this video is next level! The craftsmanship and engineering is so easy to understand with the graphics, transitions, and narration. I am blown away!
i am also curious on the camera used
It seems with the plastic mechanism and leaking, that the pressure deforms the delrin and allows small gaps to form on the surface of the manifold. I would suggest using a recessed housing with some rubber gasket material or sealant. I'd also like to see a button release for the co2 like you were planning, it seems like when you finally pierce the cartridge you still need an extra twist to get full power, and that's wasted pressure you could be using for thrust. Fantastic editing, you really put a lot of work into this, and I feel that if you want to avoid wear on parts that oscillate, you'd be better trying to design with compliant mechanism techniques rather than letting the parts rub against each other.
Hayranlıkla ve biraz kıskanarak izledim bütün videoyu. Tebrik ederim, muhteşem bir mühendislik mücadelesi olmuş. Doğanın, böylesine zor problemlerin üstesinden bu kadar mükemmel çözümlerle gelebilmesi muhteşem bir şey.
I'm only 2 minutes in writing this comment. Its really cool the level of appreciation you show to the humming birdman, i never knew how intricate and precise it's movement is, also its really cool that it keeps it's head perfectly still with all of that movement.
Just by the quality of the production alone I'd have guessed you've been making these videos for years, not a couple months
This is why i love engineering so much...its all about our love of solving a problem and learn through the process...which inspire us and amaze others...thank you for this ignition❤
Dude the quality of the engineering and the quality of your video editing is sooo good! Subscribed!
This is one of the best engineering videos I've ever seen, point blank period. Huge props to you man. Between the production quality, the transitions, showing the actual engineering processes with flawlessly simple explanations of complex topics. Like dude, this awesome. I subscribed and recommend everybody else that likes engineering do the same
I really appreciate that! I'm glad you enjoyed! :)
Looking forward to future videos!

I’m in my 20s and I never got into engineering but thanks to TH-cam and creators like you, I really want to learn and create stuff. It’s so cool and inspiring. Love your content 🙌
Tom Stanton concluded that using pressurized plastic bottles is more economical by weight than CO2 cartridges when making his air motors, maybe try modifying it for one of those? He explains in his most recent video that 1 2l plastic bottle holds 14x the air of one CO2 cartridge and weighs 20g less.
I’ll take a look into that, thanks for the suggestion!
Came here to say the same thing. Well worth watching his series on his air motor.
@@worksbydesignIf you don't want to do it with electricity and you don't have enough power from compressed air, then why not just use steam? You could easily feed your engine and make a small steam boiler with a burner, it would weigh about the same as a co2 tank but it would have more power and last longer.
the way birds can move their wings like that and stay perfectly in place is amazing
Incredible work and problem-solving! Your skill and experience in this far outweighs any suggestion I can make, but I'll throw this in just in case. The gunk from the CO2 cartridges may be oil, as some cartridges have oil to lubricate whatever mechanism they attach to (often paintball guns, and your supplier may have simply re-branded that type). You may need food-grade CO2, which should not have those contaminants. It's also possible that the contaminants are from the hose supply instead, and just weren't noticed immediately. On the other hand, some small amount of lubrication might be needed for the system.
Also, the gearing probably adds considerable weight while reducing efficiency. If it's possible to get the RPM you need by adjusting the motor size or properties, that might be helpful. But, I don't know how that would interact with the sizing need to control the CO2 flow rate to prevent the freezing.
Finally, there is probably a way to get that figure-8 movement that hummingbirds use, and (completely guessing, but it seems right) that shape might be a way of efficiently redirecting energy instead of losing it in the back-and-forth motion, and it probably has aerodynamic benefits by better utilizing the 'angle of attack' of the wing. A 4-bar linkage can generate that movement - there's an 11-page published paper "Design and analysis of "figure-8" trajectory flapping wing mechanism based on crank rocker" (by Shan Tang, in 2022), and a 162-page master's thesis entitled "Design of a 'Figure-8' Spherical Motion Flapping Wing for Miniature UAV's", (by Zohaib Parvaiz Rehmat, in 2009), which probably cover the topic in great detail.
I'm looking forward to the next video!

Watching this go from concept to design to creation was beyond incredible! As a huge fan of Dune, ornithopters are one of my favorite things and anything even remotely similar is an amazing feat of engineering in my mind! Absolutely love how the ending creation even Sounds like a hummingbird!!!
It is literally the propulsion method of a Dune ornithopter(expelled gas thrust + auxiliary lift wings). I'm sure if you had lockmart behind it they'd find a way to get it airborne untethered and the avionics figured out(they were doing even crazier stuff before fly-by-wire)
A quick question on the motor choice - why go from compression to rotation to reciprocating? Would compression direct to reciprocating be more efficient? @TomStanton has done a lot of work on creating a very efficient air engine - of course, you'd need power on the up and down stroke...
I suppose it was because I initially wanted it to work with a spring like a wind up toy. So I designed the wing mechanism around that rotating spring. Could be a weight saving and more efficient route to take your approach on the next design.
@@worksbydesignWould really like to see a direct reciprocating air engine..... like a steam engine :)
@@worksbydesign I look forward to seeing v2!
@@worksbydesign Would switching to a Tesla turbine help any? Integza's one guy who could maybe help with that.
@@worksbydesign Any reason you didn't go with the time-honored rubber band? Those tend to output pretty much constant force as well (they behave differently from springs at a microscopic level).
the ideation process, the losses, the wins, the design, the video elements, everything is so professional. The minute elements like the book, the wing design blueprints... everything makes it perfect and professional, best-est
Hello, as an Iranian, I congratulate you for your talent and you really have a strong will and perseverance, I hope you will always be successful in all projects.
I thought it was an interesting choice to go with a rotary motor and then convert it to a flapping motion (with the cool, but ultimately inefficient linkages and gearbox).
I think you might be able to get a much higher power / weight ratio by directly driving the wings with a piston based design. Something sort of along the lines of a double-acting steam engine, where the piston is driven in both directions. You'd need a double-acting design to avoid the necessity of a flywheel.
You might need to get a little clever with your valve system however, as without a flywheel you'll need to ensure that there's no possibility of the piston getting stuck at either end of its travel. However, if you can get it to work you can likely shave off a bunch of weight and reduce mechanical losses.
Very nice project! One thought, you need an oscillating motion for the flapflap. Maybe its simpler to use a linear oscilation air pressure motor as energy source. Like the piston of a steam engine which is valve controlled pressurized from both sides alternating. Then you can transfere the motion only with linkages without rotary motion in between. One issue could be, that there would be no fly wheel to hold momentum in phases with no pressure...
As a piece of engineering, that little motor is just beautiful.
If I had to make a guess about the compressed co2 issue on the 3d printed version, I would say it's quite likely because of the heavy texture of the 3d print. It is likely providing a large surface area for the ice crystals to form. You may have some success giving it some sort of treatment that will make a smoother surface. With FDM ABS prints, an atomised acetone treatment works a treat. However that looks like an SLA powder print maybe but there is probably some kind of solvent that would achieve the same effect.
You've done a great job at optimizing the wing and nozzels, the type of engine as well was a spot-on choice.
Maybe hose or tube tail connected to a water bottle could serve both as a ballast and air tank, helping it fly more stable and with more autonomy than a c02 cannister. (perhaps a mechanical dragonfly?)
The material of choice for the compressed air engine blades is also going to be important, teflon is perfect for metal contact and sealing (with a minuscule amount of lubrication).
Keep up the great work
This was insane. I think the goal should be the wing thrust as close to 50% of the total thrust, I know easier said then done.
This better get a few million views. Love this content!
Haven’t been this immediately charmed and captivated by a maker channel since the first time I stumbled across Stuff Made Here. Great video and editing! Cheers 🎉
As a mechanical engineer myself the video is a blast to watch and the gear is accurate the material selection to the design which slightly resembles some of the solid powered jet engine used for space,kudos to the great work man!
I think this has been mentioned already but the stability issue described is probably due to the ornithopter not being perfectly vertical at release, and as it tips, the lift vector shifts in the direction it tips. You lose some lift (probably enough that you lose altitude since it just barely hovers) and instead get some thrust (the ornithopter starts drifting "forward").
Man your video is absolutely insane, the amount of talent that goes into this whole thing honestly blows my mind and makes me question what am I doing as an engineer lol. Subscribed
“If hummingbirds evolved to use compressed air to make their wings move, it would be stupid not to use exhaust gas to add lift” - Charles Darwin
This is a great video that shows the engineering process! Thanks! Not sure whether already mentioned, but more stability could be gained by using three thrusters instead of two, distributing the thrust force more evenly.
This is beyond incredible. The fact that you designed and built this amazing machine, AND did some excellent editing👌 Exemplary🙌
Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. Thank you very much for your time.
Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them).
Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy.
Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).
Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning!
Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures.
Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement.
It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them.
(19-22 / Translated by Muhammad Asad)..
God said : Say, “We believe in Allah, and in what was revealed to us, and in what was revealed to Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the Patriarchs, and in what was given to Moses and Jesus, and in what was given to the prophets from their Lord. We do not differentiate between any of them. And to Him, we surrender.”
(2:136 / Translated by Community)
Salam (Peace) ----------------
In 30 years' time, what you learned here will still be affecting what you do in your professional life.
Well done!
Great video, I had no idea those were being used on big ships. I had heard about the drones 3D printing a building before, but hearing about it and seeing it again just now gave me a crazy idea. With smaller drones there is no need to be limited to layer printing a large object. There could be many of them acting more like wasps, making structures like how wasps build their nests. They would land and hold onto the structure to conserve energy and build up small areas at a time. Imagine a swarm of these things, they could easily track their own progress to make sure that it is shaping up properly.
This is what youtube needs to be
That tiny air engine is ingenious. Brilliant engineering!
This channel is underrated
The TH-cam algorithm has started recommending me plenty of small-ish DIY/Engineering creators like you that produce insanely high quality videos, and I'm ALL for it. You got a new sub! :)
do yourself, it
@@peterheinzo515 oh fuck you're right I didn't notice. Fixed
Crazy. Im working on a project on drones for cross polination. Helped my understand ornothopter mechanism pretty clearly. Thanks for this video.
Fantastic video sir. Really inspiring me to pick up some old hobbies again.
Can confirm, hummingbirds are very camera shy. Probably because they're guarding the mechanics of their wings.
We need more engineering videos like this. Great editing great quality. After seeing the video. I would just say SubhanAllah after all the material science and advancement we cannot make hummingbird ❤
I enjoy the small design features not even explained like the built in plan to have the initial air inlet and then a single hole addition going to the more likely to work method.
just good practice to do things like that
I'm thinking of building an ornithopter and I came across your video. In the beginning I was just going to like the video but after seeing the quality of editing, explanations, animations and more, I can't not subscribe. Amazing content, captivating as hell, cant wait to see more
Very impressive production values in your video! You strike a good balance between entertaining and educating and I totally feel your pain as you went through all of those iterations. I wish you luck as your research continues!
I think you need to reach 51% thrust by wings. Anything lower is a rocket with wing assist :p
Очень впечатляет, настойчивость и стремление получить результат!!! Настоящий конструкиор исследователь. Браво!
Titanium parts and direct piston driven oscillating the wings and for the wings start with a carbon fiber skeleton with the wings made out of a flexible epoxy resin and to strengthen the wings there is very lightweight carbon fiber mesh to support the entire flexible wing so it would be skeleton-light mesh-encased in thin flexible resin. Oh yea, that black smegma on the aluminum is an oxide mixed with something in the co2 probably, IDK exactly tho
I can't imagine how much effort u have kept on the project. I love the way you working, testing and, Documentation. That rapid prototyping and refining the system to the most efficient machine. Hatts off from, India. Please keep the good work.
First video of yours Iv seen, and I’m now subscribed! The amount of time, work, editing and everything in this video took so much work and it’s amazing! Looking forward to this channel blowing up!
Have you considered a pressure regulator for the CO2 cartridge? I don't know how small and light you could make it but running at similar pressure as the air compressor would avoid the leaking issue as well as prolonging the flight time. It's just an idea. I'm no expert here
That smile when it’s flying is great!
Found another channel with good potential to make engineering a fun thing , keep geeking.
Beautiful work, I have seen many projects similar to yours but your way of telling your story and your process leaves me with high expectations. I hope you keep going! Again, what a good job you have done.
Quote: How do bird watchers even do this??? hahaha😂 But when you finally did home in on one, what a Beautiful Sight!👍😉🇨🇦
It’s insane that you’re such a small channel. The effort you put into this video is incredible! I wish you success in the future and can’t wait to watch.
P. S. Remember, you’re here to educate and entertain, keep politics out of the videos.
Awesome project dude, I was wondering if that black powder might be residual nylon powder from the MJF process that's being blown out of the binding material by the sudden high pressure + temperature change, which would gum up the system.
Also having 63% of your thrust being rocket based is 100% legal ;P The way I see it, a hummingbird doesn't use compressed gas to move so it doesn't have to worry about exhaust, but yours does so it's just a side-effect.
I look forward to seeing any progress you choose to make on it!
Thanks you! And I never even considered the black residue being that, great suggestion!
@@worksbydesignAdding to this, the quick release of CO2 like that is bound to generate some frozen CO2, which could additionally erode your 3D printed material, since it's softer than the aluminum.
It's great and very satisfying to see it fly at the end but for me, the best part of this video is watching the whole process, watching you running into issues and trying to come up with a solution to solve them. Oh, and awesome editing, by the way!!
One significant difference between the operation of the ornithopter and wing movement of a hummingbird seems to be happening at the base of the wings. The ornithopter keeps the base of the wings parallel to the body, whereas the base of the hummingbird's wing moves back and forth, along with the rest of the wing. Perhaps try to allow that piece of graphite to rotate around the wing spar, at least to some extent. Keeping it aligned seems to waste a lot of energy by pushing air back and forth without generating additional lift.
Happy to see this video pop off, such a cool design and a great video. What programs did you use for the animations? That style is so clean and clear.
Thanks you! I used Onshape to model everything and blender to render them in that style
Send this video to Elon Musk,he will hire you immediately. You are an engineering genius.
People like u r the real heroes. An absolute blessing to view this brilliance
*Thanks for making this interesting video! As a NASA engineer we studied the Eagle for flight and figured out that if we could master it's flight design and build it up into an aircraft that could hold 130 people and fly from LA to NY for only $360.00 in fuel which is 97X more fuel efficient than any jet. The trip would take 12 hours instead of 5 hours but tickets would be profitable to sell at under $99.00 per round trip. We would still need to add a small engine for cabin pressure, cooling and heating, lights and all the other gizmos that make a modern plane fly and fun. This may take more fuel than the actual propulsion aspect of the project. Work to mimic nature still continues at NASA today.*
This has made me appreciate the wonder of hummingbirds more
Thank you, sir. This was intensely interesting. Most people get discouraged when faced with so many engineering problems, but you keep on being creative, I admire that. Also, thanks for the information regarding OnShape. I compared OnShape with many other CAD-type software and it beat them all hands down. The designs are public ( in free version ) if you want privacy ( it comes with paid version ). The exports are unlimited with free plan in a bunch of different formats so you have did us all a favour recommending it. Thank you again and good luck with all your future builds. 😊
You’re editing is great. Especially considering your subs
The efforts bro took is worth a standing ovation
Your lock video was the first I discovered. I saw the hose attached on the ornithopter & thought it would be cool if it could be done with a CO2 cartridge. I can see some of the frustration and had one major thought: that the puncturing of the CO2 would need to happen before releasing all of the energy at once. The best idea I could come to would be a sealing mechanism that was linked to a release of both chamber and the ornithopter itself. Think of the water rocket . . . it had a base that would release the water rocket and let the pressure escape at the same time.
Maybe a gasket that is spring loaded with enough pressure to remove entirely when triggered. There may even be places where the gearing, or release mechanism could benefit with ball bearings
Amazingly well done video and use of CAD, 3D printing.. and most of all, your incredible ingenuity, engineering, and perseverance. I've had an idea for a drone with a single propeller (or a pair of counter-rotating ones) which i put into some of the scifi stories i've written.. and have always found ornithopters fascinating. You've really got talent and determination. Bravo!
I’ll never understand how some people are just so damn smart to figure out engineering stuff like this. Designing it and drawing and then just figuring it out… really amazing to see.
I think this is the first video that gives a lot of the engineering details that doesn't get boring, amazing animation and great video, you deserve more subscribers 🔥🔥
This is an incredible piece of engineering and a very well produced video!
Be wary of the pendulum rocket fallacy, having your center of mass below your center of thrust does NOT help flight stability, so you’ll have to find some other means of stability
bro, Instead of doing my architecture thesis presentation due in 4 days, I'm here being amazed by your video production skills. you deserve a sub. and hopefully you can share the specs of your pc to us, it runs so smooth.
that's why i love youtube the most, because of videos like this
Proper job mate, you remind me of a young fella I knew around 50 years ago, he is still a silly bugger!🇦🇺🦘👍🏼
Co2 needs an expansion chamber, you lose half of the pressure by using it directly, also a regulator would be good, from 800 down to the usable 130 psi u need. You could try with airsoft greengas 3d printed tank should hold the pressure, butane is liquified at around 130-160 psi
Awsome project and great engneering going on!
CO2 suggestion: I had to deal a lot with those CO2 cartridges in my work, and we had this ice building up in our peircing point amd blocking the mechanism. The CO2 have relativley high freezing point and when moving from the the really high pressure inside the cartridge to atmosphere through a tiny hole, the gas expension causes freezing.
We ended up replacing the CO2 cartridges with N2 cartridges which have much lower freezing point. It solved the issue.
With this amount of hard work and determination, oneday you'll touch the sky, Son.
All the best.
How, in 3 measly videos, has your editing shot through the atmosphere like a laser? Dude you are by far the best one with these kinds of build videos. By all means keep it going. I'd love to see where you go. I would possibly like you to try something with electricity too. I could help with that or there are other youtubers you could ask. I'm pretty sure all of em would be willing to work with someone as skilled as you! Just thought I'd share this observation as well as shoot a shot at working with a guy like you!
Keep doing what you do man, you're amazing!
For such a small channel you have insane production quality and skills, best of luck on future projects
The video editing is just so goddamn SLICK. If i ever make content you will be a *MAJOR* inspiration+goal to even get close to. Amazing project and video as usual!
