Mini Wooden Kit - Leonardo da Vinci Ornithopter

Da Vinci Ornithopter Model Kit is a model kit that allows you to construct a working replica of one of Leonardo da Vinci's engineering designs, the Ornithopter. Flying has always been a dream of humans, and Leonardo's fascination with birds and flight was evident in his studies of birds and different human powered flying machines. Leonardo's Ornithopter design has captured the imagination of people for generations, and we have combined his cool flying machine with one of his bevel gear designs to make a neat model with flapping wings and a pilot with moving legs and arms. This compelling and innovative wooden kit includes pre-cut wooden components and detailed assembly instructions and is an educational and enjoyable experience for history and engineer enthusiasts. As well, it is suitable for children of all ages and allows them to explore the link between engineering, design and technology in the world around them.
