However, momentum is a problem. The vibrations, and thus stresses, induced on the body of the thopter must be ludicrous. When the wings go up, the body must go down, and vice versa.
- adrian_b 5y agoActually this can be an explanation for the fact that in the movie the ornithopters have 8 wings instead of 4, like an insect. On each wing position there are a pair of wings, one above the other. If when one goes up, the other goes down, and vice-versa, that eliminates the vertical oscillation of the body.
