Abstract

The invention relates to a small aircraft operated by beating wings, characterised in that: it comprises a central base body (6) around which four beating wings are symmetrically arranged, each beating wing carrying out a beating movement in antiphase to its neighbour; the four beating wings are each connected to the base body by an elastic structural element (5) providing the freedom of movement required for the beating movement of the beating wing; and each beating wing is provided with an independently controllable drive mechanism supplying the impulse for generating or maintaining the oscillatory movement of the beating wing.
