Its\u0026nbsp;construction is not based on the wing mechanism\u0026nbsp;of insects, however, but on the flapping method\u0026nbsp;of birds. The structure comprises a long steel\u0026nbsp;tube with a seat for the pilot at the front, and a tail\u0026nbsp;rudder at the back. The wings have an aluminium\u0026nbsp;frame and are covered with transparent\u0026nbsp;macrolon. The wingtips are made of black foam\u0026nbsp;rubber, which provides the resistance needed to\u0026nbsp;maintain the wings in an optimum position at a\u0026nbsp;speed of 50 km/h.\u003c/p\u003e"},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u0026quot;Ik wilde eerst weten hoe dat mechanisme precies in elkaar zit.
