It's finally here! Although we did shoot some video, we're releasing the full text tutorial first & made this the priority as it is more complete and we usually prefer this format ourselves for instructionals. There will be a video soon to compliment this but it's not necessary.
The attachment includes all the 3D print files, code, and a PDF of the tutorial so you can have a printout to refer to offline.

This new tutorial is made with Fancy Fairy Wings & Things' Ethereal Collection fairy wings in mind specifically. The holes in the servo attachments are made to work with the standard sized convertible wing panels I make. You might be able to drill matching holes in some of my older designs like the Platinum Collection *if* the base is wide enough and you're willing to cut them off of their existing attachment. If you are working with any other type of wings you will need to figure out a way to make the attachment work.
This flapping wing design has a battery pack that will need to be held somehow, I've tucked the power pack into my leaf belt pouch myself. If you're creating your costume too, you can consider sewing a hidden pocket into your costume where the power pack can hide.
While not complicated, this tutorial is not intended for the novice, as some soldering skills, use of programmable microcontrollers and knowledge of 3D printing is required.
