While this idea may never have got off the ground, for some basic technical reasons, it gave us an insight into the different ways in which leonardo considered the challenge of human powered flying, and defines him as an inventor well ahead of his time. While it is often referred to as a helicopter, the premise of the lift to make it rise is more like archimedes screw than the rotors of a helicopter. This model uses one of the bevel gears he drew in his codices and creates a nice 2 to 1 increase in speed of the crankshaft, so the mast spins quickly, illustrating the manner in which this machine would have worked. Kit features pieces that are drilled and pegged for strength, the canopy and support structure are removeable for experimenting, and lots of interesting information about how it works. Kit stands about 15" tall and 9" across. Review: A well thought out kit - This is a well thought out and easy to put together model. The instruction booklet is very clear - giving not only directions on assembling the kit, but also hints for fine tuning the various stages of building. There are also historical notes on Da Vinci's original drawings, and comparisons with the workings of a modern helicopter. The only things needed to complete the model that were not included in the box were a ruler and scissors (and a little extra glue). The kit can be completed in around an hour and a half, and makes for an attractive conversation piece.
