If you have to reach even the slightest turmoil during a flight to the barking bag, you will never want to climb on it Russian equipment what use wings flap to take flight. But it demonstrates that the design of Mother Nature can be replaced to make a revolution in air travel.
This is not the first time we have succeeded in redesigning how creatures such as insects and birds take to the air. In fact, mechanical ornithopters (airplanes that fly using a wing mechanism) are so common that humans have been building elastic-powered versions of balsa wood and paper for years. For $ 40 you can get a remote control robot bird it is surprisingly maneuverable for a toy. What’s impressive about this outfit is called Serenity, which looks like it’s based on one of Da Vinci’s many sketches potential flying machines, is its scope.
The Russian-built ornithopter is proof that a winged wing approach to flight is not just an option for small insects or birds whose skeletal structure and bodies are as lightweight as possible. With a hull that appears to be about 10 feet long, three sets of fluttering wings and all the mechanisms, links, wires and batteries needed to create the flap movement, Serenity is easily heavier than even the largest flying creatures we have on earth has. . It does not appear to be quite large enough to accommodate a human passenger or pilot yet, but it’s just a matter of scope and funding – future versions of Serenity could be even bigger.
The constant up and down movement of the wings makes Serenity seem like a bumpy ride for anyone who wants to get on board, but in the same way birds can keep their heads stabilized while waving their wings, there is no doubt that with more engineering can be overcome. But why bother if planes just work well?
Modern aircraft rely on forward motion to create elevators over their wings and stay afloat. It is supplied by jet engines or pushing screws – both very noisy solutions. It also means that planes have the minimum speed they must maintain, otherwise they fall out of the sky. Using the wings of an airplane to generate a lift offers incredible mobility potential, as anyone watching a dragonfly while forcing around to hunt mosquitoes, or a hummingbird carefully drinking from a flower while still flying, can attest to that. Tranquility is not nearly able to soar in the air, and even the ability to drive is limited, but it does show exciting potential. Will a Boeing 777 ever flap its giant wings? Probably not, but flapping wings are undoubtedly a safer alternative to attaching a jet engine to people’s backs as a solution to personal flight.
