| 词条 | Great Kite |
| 释义 |
The Great Kite was a wooden machine designed by Leonardo da Vinci. Leonardo realized it between the end of 1400 and the beginning of 1500. Drawings of parts and components of this machine can be found in the Codex on the flight of birds, which however lacks the overall description of the machine itself. Some drawings within the same codex suggest that it was designed in similarity with flapping flight. However, this was hardly possible to perform given the available technologies, thus Leonardo developed a machine for mainly a gliding flight.[1] The machine is named after the animal from which Leonardo took inspiration to realize the flying machine, the Kite.[2] Note1. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.leonardo3.net/grandenibbio/index.html|title=IL GRANDE NIBBIO|language=it}} {{Leonardo da Vinci}}{{Engineering-stub}}2. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.ticinolive.ch/2012/12/04/il-codice-sul-volo-degli-uccelli-di-leonardo-da-vinci/|title=Il Codice sul volo degli uccelli di Leonardo da Vinci|language=it}} 1 : Leonardo da Vinci projects |
