ornithopter

Ptera Software is a fast, easy-to-use, and open-source software package for analyzing flapping-wing flight.

Open-source flight control software tailored for precise servo-based propulsion in ornithopters, replacing traditional motor outputs with oscillating servos for realistic flapping wing motion.
