Hi,
Your fantastic!!! model reminded me of nice one by Otto Kuhni. So I started googling and, of course, I was able to find it after a while - http://www.gasparin.cz/photo.php?foto=co2/models/kuhni/kuhni_03.jpg&lng=en. There are another cute models on that web-sites - see here. By the way, all of them are powered with CO2 engine whose principle is identical to steam engine. It means that they can fly! Although there is a propeller instead of flapping wings.
You can also read more about flapping wing here - http://www.ornithopter.org.
