It would probably help if you defined what "fly" means to you. Fly like a bird, or fly through the air like a thrown rock? Something else?

lift off the ground to a certain degree and then come back after a while

lift off the ground to a certain degree and then come back after a while
Given, presumably, a constant gravity in the room, apply a force in the opposite direction that is greater than the gravity to make it lift, change the force to be equal to the gravity effect and it will hover, reset the force to 0 and it will drop to the ground.
