Dragonfly

[Sicil]

Hello. The idea to make a dragonfly came accidentally. Delving into the details, I came across a transparent round parts, and decided that they would look good as the eyes. Think about how to build insects, I decided that the best will build dragonfly.

That's all. Thank you for your attention. Your Sicil. Sorry for my bad english.

Real insects use linear actuators for precision...

(@OP: very cool design!)

That's a good looking dragonfly, however, I think the tail look a bit short?

Thanks!

I didn't try to make an exact copy, I wanted to give a kind of toy model.

It's wonderfull Technic parts are real good for bugs, I think

Instantly recognisable to me, red looks good for a toy version of the real thing, I say well done good use of the flex axles for the wings as well.
