When the waterproof motor 231 rotates forward to drive the wire guider 232 to rotate forward, the rigid rope 2543 rotates with the winding wheel 2321 of the wire guider 232, so that the right part of the rigid rope 2543 on the winding wheel 2321 is shortened, the left part of the rigid rope 2543 on the winding wheel 2321 is extended, because the second active spring 2542 connected with the right end of the rigid rope 2543 is in a tensioned state and can not be extended any more, the second active spring 2542 can apply a pulling force to the movable vertical rod 2512 on the right side connected with the second active spring, the movable vertical rod 2512 on the right side can only shift to the right side under the action of the supporting force of the cross brace 252, because the passive spring 253 between the movable vertical rod 2512 on the right side and the movable vertical rod 2512 on the left side is also in a tensioned state, the passive spring 253 can pull the movable vertical rod 2512 on the left side to shift to the right side, and simultaneously, because the radius of the winding wheel 2321 corresponding to the rigid rope 2543 connected, the offset of the tensioning assembly 25 is gradually increased from front to back, so that the tensioning assembly 25 is integrally bent towards the right side, and the tensioning assembly 25 further drives the flexible skin 21 to deform, so that the tail fin swings to the right. It can be appreciated that the left-hand swing of the tail fin can be achieved by the reverse rotation of the waterproof motor 231. Therefore, the waterproof motor 231 alternately rotates in the forward direction and the reverse direction to swing the tail fin back and forth, thereby driving the glider body 1 to move.
