Othricops

About
Othricops are the flying machines used by Steamians in IABWIFFA 3. They are the main mode of transportation in the story, due to their simple design and mechanics.

Design
The Othricop consists of two pulleys and a large pair of wings. The user will strap themselves into an armour-like casing, which alows them to move their arms and legs. Like a hang glider, the user holds on to a metal bar with the wings on top. attached to the wings are two leather straps that clamp around the user's ankles and feet.

How to Use
The user first must be lifted into the air by a MagicPlace worker. Every building has one on duty. Once they are in the air, they must jump off the edge they are on and lift their feet. In order to control where the Othricop goes, the user will lift on leg and straighten the other, while leaning to one side. The leather straps attached to the feet will position the wings in order to steer.
