Finally got the wing mechanism working smoothly. One of the problems I was having was getting them to work  when pulled by a 7 year old girl, who isn't quite as strong as I am. Apparently. Arranging the leavers to give the right mechnaical advantange to overcome the elastic needed to return the wings to the folded position did take a number of trial builds.

Next is making the wing shaped peiices and then making lots of nice big feathers. the end is in sight!
