Description

This is a educational construction kit assembled from various materials (plastic, metal, etc.).


Here's something you don't see every day! This quality kit provides wood and brass parts to construct a 1/72-scale replica of Leonardo da Vinci's famous concept of an "airscrew" type of propeller-driven vehicle, which he designed in the early 1480s. Impractical as it may be--there was no way indicated to prevent the entire craft from rotating along with the propeller--this early aeronautical artifact is a thing of beauty in its own right. The propeller is designed to rotate, powered by an AA-size battery (included). Illustrated instructions are included, with text in both Japanese and English; some skill and patience will definitely be needed for assembly, but once you're finished, you'll have a beautiful and unique item to display in your home. It would be an excellent gift, too, for someone who's always inspired you!
