The invention relates to an ornithopter capable of realizing flapping-reversing coupled motion. The technical scheme is as follows: the ornithopter comprises a fuselage (1), a driving mechanism (3), two wings (4), an empennage mechanism (5) and a control system, wherein a motor (22) transmits motion to a first rotating shaft (25) through a gear, and cranks (26) mounted at two ends of the first rotating shaft (25) drive the two wings (4) through two connecting rods (27) to realize the flapping motion of the wings; a small belt pulley (28) mounted in the middle of the first rotating shaft (25) is connected with a large belt pulley (31) through a belt, and the large belt pulley (31) rotates to realize the reversing motion of the wings through a second connecting rod (17), a rocker (18) and the two wings (4); a transmitter (41) transmits remote control signals to a receiver (6), the motor (22) is controlled to realize flapping and reversing of the wings, and an empennage steering engine (38) is controlled to realize steering of the ornithopter. The ornithopter has the characteristics of simple structure, a few driving links, large produced effective lift and capability of realizing the flapping-reversing coupled flapping motion and realizing flexible flying.
