Da Vinci-style wooden ornithopter with flapping wings in Three.js

Claude Opus 5 produced a timber ornithopter from a one-line prompt, with ribbed wings that flap while you orbit around it.

How to use this prompt

  1. Paste the prompt into Claude Opus 5 at high effort in your coding tool; the author even told it to be lazy.

  2. Swap the machine for another invention, such as a helical airscrew or a glider, or change the ground and light.

  3. Open the HTML, drag to orbit, then ask for wing-speed sliders, a flight path or sound.
