###We have completed the prototype of a mechanical radio control dragonfly and we are collecting funds to bring it to market. The KickStarter will allow you to purchase the Dragonfly RC or you can invest in our company GadgetANNI. Details on how you can own a part of GadgetANNI will be posted shortly. If you have questions please message me through your Thingiverse account.
Thank you
One of the most fascinating creatures on Earth, the dragonfly has a very ancient stroke. It's an up-and-down stroke instead of a back-and-forth stroke. An airfoil uses aerodynamic lift to carry its weight. But the dragonfly uses a lot of aerodynamic drag to carry its weight. What’s odd is that with airplanes you always think about minimizing drag, you never think about using drag for lift.
