Cool six minute video from SmarterEveryDay on dragonfly flight mechanics - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oxrLYv0QXa4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oxrLYv0QXa4 If you don't watch the whole thing, fast forward to the slow mo at ~4:35. I still remember watching this for the first time 9 years ago...geez.

There is a crappy pdf of this floating around that I read before buying this. Deffo worth it but for those who want to try before you buy it’s worth ‘binging’ it.
