Flying has always been a dream of humans and Leonardo’s fascination with birds and flight was evident in the many studies of birds in flight and human powered flying machines.
It remains a mystery if Leonardo’s Ornithopter designs were ever made and tested, but we have made a fun model that you can make flap and ponder da Vinci’s inquisiosity into human powered flight.
Learn about how levers work and place it on the shelf once done to inspire you to soar to great heights of drawing and invention.
Leonardo was the consummate STEM leader of his time!
