Igor Sikorsky is credited with designing and building several helicopters throughout his career. Notably, he created the VS-300, which was one of the first successful single-rotor helicopters, and the R-4, the first helicopter to enter production in the U.S. While the exact number of helicopters he designed varies, Sikorsky's contributions significantly advanced helicopter technology and paved the way for future developments in the field.
Igor Fyodorovich Stravinsky (sometimes spelled Strawinskyor Stravinskii), was a Russian, and laterFrench and American composer, pianist and conductor. He is acknowledged by many as one of the most important and influential composers of the 20th century.

There were many inventors of helicopters. I believe Igor Sikorsky was the best.
A Russian-American, Igor Sikorsky, invented the first working helicopter...however, Leonardo Da Vinci created the concept of a helicopter many years before Sikorsky was born.
in the 1500's Leonardo Da Vinci drew one.....1784, Launoy and Bienvenue, french inventor created a toy that proved it was possible, however modern day helicopters are credited to Igor Sikorsky. Sikorsky's design is the design that all modern helicopters are based off of today.

Sikorsky had designed many different aircraft. The helicopter was the epitome of his career
Igor Sikorsky designed the first truly succesful helicopter with the VS-300. The VS-300 went through its flight testst between 1939-1941. The VS-300 became the base model for many helicopters that came after it.
Many people invented different helicopters and parts, but possibly the most significant was Igor Sikorski.
Many people had a hand in inventing different helicopters. Igor Sikorski made the first successful one.
No single person "invented" the helicopter. Like all complicated machines it was developed over a period of years and many people tried different things. The Germans had simple but unreliable helicopters in the 1930's and none got beyond prototype stage. There were also many Autogyros in the '30s , but they weren't really helicopters as the rotors were not powered. - In my opinion the first person to build and fly a successful helicopter was Igor Sikorsky around 1940.
Igor Sikorsky was one of many helicopter inventors. He was the one who invented a helicopter that used a tail rotor to counteract the thrust of the main rotor, and he was able to build one with a strong enough engine, an efficient enough rotor, and a light enough airframe. So his helicopter became the first successful commercially produced helicopter.
The very first piloted helicopter was invented by Paul Cornu in 1907, however, this design was not successful. French inventor, Etienne Oehmichen built and flew a helicopter one kilometer in 1924. Another early helicopter that flew for a decent distance was the German Focke-Wulf Fw 61, invented by an unknown inventor.Igor SikorskyIgor Sikorsky is considered to be the "father" of helicopters not because he invented the first. He is called that because he invented the first successful helicopter, upon which further designs were based. One of aviation's greatest designers, Russian born Igor Sikorsky began work on helicopters as early as 1910. By 1940, Igor Sikorsky's successful VS-300 had become the model for all modern single-rotor helicopters. He also designed and built the first military helicopter, XR-4, which he delivered to Colonel Franklin Gregory of the U.S. Army.Igor Sikorsky's helicopters had the control to fly safely forwards and backwards, up and down, and sideways. In 1958, Igor Sikorsky's rotorcraft company made the world's first helicopter that had a boat hull and could land and takeoff from water. It could also float on the water.A:No, the helicopter was developed gradually in many countries.In 1932 Boris N. Yuriev and Alexei M. Cheremukhin, from Russia, built and flew the TsAGI 1-EA single rotor helicopter up to an altitude of 605 meters (1,985 ft).Other people had flown before that but this was the highest flight so far.Igor Sikorsky (who was Russian but who emigrated to America) built a helicopter in the US that reached full-scale production in 1942 (131 aircraft built). His design of one main rotor and a small tail rotor became the standard.
