The
Ornithopter Society was started by Patrick Deshaye in 1984.
Through the sharing of knowledge and ideas, the society has
accelerated the development of ornithopter technology, leading
to renewed interest in flapping-wing flight.
Join
the Ornithopter Society today and receive our quarterly newsletter,
Flapping Wings! Your initial membership will last one
year. You can extend your membership at no cost by contributing
articles or plans to the newsletter. This is an important
opportunity for you to document your ideas in print.
Today,
there is a lot of ornithopter discussion on the internet,
but the Flapping Wings newsletter still has an important
role. It saves you time by selectively capturing all of the
important innovations in our field, filtering out the garbage.
Much of the content is original and will never be available
online. The Flapping Wings newsletter also preserves
key developments in a more lasting format.
Winter
2008 newsletter contents: Flying with Ravens: bird and
ornithopter aerobatics. Reaching the Insect World: 10 cm MAV
designed by Yoshiyuki Kawamura. Equalizer II plans by Nathan
Chronister.
The
Ornithopter Design Manual is available exclusively to
society members. This totally new print edition of the design
manual incorporates the substantial knowledge gained over
the last ten years. Purchasing information will appear in
the Spring issue of the newsletter.
For
locations outside the US, a $4 shipping and handling fee will
be added.
