He did build a working model of one.
It was not built then, but Leonardo da Vinci made a drawing of a helicopter in the 15th Century.
Leonardo da Vinci had a very imaginative mind. He drew many pictures but never built any of the things he drew.
Leonardo da Vinci was approximately 31 years old when he built his 'Aerial Screw'
I think he built it with the help of his uncle. It was a model made perhaps by looking at maple seeds falling. Look at the link below:
Nothing that was actually built..
In 1901 at the age of 16, he built a working model of a helicopter.
It was never actually built.
Leonardo Da Vinci was a artist and a builder.he painted the "Mona Lisa" and "The Last Supper." He built a GIANT bronze horse for the king. Your Welcome<3 lol
Like most of Leonardo's original ideas it was never built.
he built it in 2048 using the time machine he invented in bc10000
Leonardo da Vinci didn't build anything but if, in the Renaissance, they had any the right tools and machines, he probably would have. Leonardo did design a bridge in his notes, that was designed so well, if it had been built it would hold todays heavy traffic.
Leonardo di Vinci drew a device that resembled a helicopter and the rotor looked like a large screw. Later in the 1900's, some people tried built helicopters with a large rotor that tapered to a point like a screw. This was one inspiration. They had the idea that the screw-rotor could screw up into the air.
