The present invention is referred to an electrically propelled display device with simulated hovering and/or flying patterns, comprising a driving unit; said driving unit includes a base, a central hollow body and a rotatable head. A power source is connected to the driving unit, a flexible support is attached to the rotatable head of the driving unit and a display pattern is attached to the flexible support. Said driving unit includes in the central hollow body an oscillator electronic circuit and an electric motor. Said oscillator electronic circuit is connected to the power source and to the electric motor which includes a driving motor shaft attached to the rotatable head. This device simulates the movement of some flying objects and aliforms, such as birds, bats, butterflies, dragonflies, fairies, or the like. The oscillator circuit sends pulses at a certain frequency to the motor, generating an intermittent, rotational movement. This movement is transferred to the wire, which, then accentuates and transmits this movement to the object. The ultimate effect is the combination of a rotational movement, and a movement that simulates the flapping of wings of some flying animals and fairies, or the movement of other aquatic or terrestrial animals. The speed and intensity of rotation and flapping change with the frequency and pulse width of the wave that the oscillator sends. The device may be used in decorative, educational, promotional, and entertainment applications. It may be used both, indoors and outdoors.
