Leonardo Da Vinci: Ornithopter

Leonardo Da Vinci is well known for his art, but was also a pioneer in maths and science, and many of his contributions remain highly influential to this day. One of his dreams was human flight, and in this design I represent his Ornithopter flying machine. Utilising a system of gears, the wings of the flying machine flap with a turn of the crank.
