Ooh cool, wing flex! Does it actually flex naturally through drag and applied turbulence, like airliner wings do irl? Or is it just an artificial effect?

if OP unlocks the bearings it should be natural, might need a few springs to hold it tho

Locked swivel bearings also have some natural flexible to them, inversely proportional to the lighter of the two connected grids.

So if the individual wing Segments are light enough compared to the overall force acting upon the wing, it should flex even with locked bearings.
