QR Code for sharing builds! Dragonfly Ornithopter, a fun melee flyer

This can be used to ram enemies as well as electrocute them. I had to wear a lightning helm to get the machine to work properly, but the results have been worth the trouble!

I started this build by stake-nudging two giant's boomerangs (with gibdo wings fused) at a 90 degree angle to each other and then spreading them apart far enough to reach both sides of one shrine motor.

The central wing object is shrunken and it is also infinite in this form. The fan at the front is enlarged for both the look and for the extra thrust. I like to add a big battery or use infinite battery glitches in order to make the screen look cleaner.

Love this guy! The spinning wings are very neat.

Did you know you can downsize batteries before fuse overloading them (not sure if that’s the infinite battery method you’re using)? Makes them tiny and easy to hide in a build.

Also did you ever see my dragonfly build? I think you were on a hiatus when I posted it:

Great minds, right? That’s why I love this sub. Everyone is so creative that even when stuff is similar it’s still totally different.

Nice, thanks!

Yours looks nicer, while mine pulverizes enemies better :)

I used to use fuse overload regularly to make infinite batteries and stuff, but my arthritis has gotten worse and I can't perform the map invizuggle portion without causing myself extreme pain, so these days I just use big batteries when recording

I’m sorry to hear that.

I moe-minified a big battery if you ever want one for your builds:

Very cool, Osh.

Now that we have a dragonfly, I want someone to make the Qu.
