This takes flight and soars much better than the wind-up wooden airplanes. Yes, it's delicate. So handle with care. Best if an adult winds it up and just let the kids run after it to bring it back. Teach the kids how to hold it by it's body and not the wings. Don't play with it close to a house, as my heroic neighbor had to retrieve it off his roof for us.

I had countless hours of fun playing with ornithopters as a child, so I bought this for my son hoping that he would enjoy it just as much. Unfortunately, the quality of this item is severely lacking. The body is made of paper thin plastic, the wings are extremely delicate, and the winding mechanism is fragile. After a couple of successful flights, my son just picked it up by the wing, and the wingtip snapped the fragile plastic leading edge. After trying to tape it together, we managed to get it flying again briefly, although it didn’t fly quite as well after that. After another flight or two, the tiny plastic tab on the winding mechanism broke, and the handle would just spin around in circles after winding it up. Now it’s totally useless. I expected more from this item, and I am really disappointed. Would not recommend.

It's not a bird, and doesn't fly very long, but on the third attempt I did get it to fly correctly for about 10 seconds, which is their flight time.
