$85
Revell – Leonardo Da Vinci – Aerial Screw Model (Wood) Scale 1:48
This is a 1:48 scale model of one of Da Vinci’s creations ‘the aerial screw. The item is brand new and sealed. This is a collectible piece from a total set of 6 models released by Revell in 2010. This is not a plastic model as three companies obtained the right to manufacture and release this product. Two companies produced it as a plastic model set with Revell releasing it constructed with materials of wood, cloth & cord. The model is an original model, not a rerelease.
Details provided below are from my research.

MAT IRVINE INSPECTS AN INTERESTING MIXED MEDIA KIT
In the middle of 2010, Scale Model News carried a report on one of the new kits from Italeri, originated by Academy, that explore the technological design marvels from the pen of that Renaissance Man, Leonardo da Vinci. At the time it was said that this literally was a rebirth of interest as you would be getting models from not one, but three different kit companies. Two would use conventional plastic - as does the Academy/Italeri - but Revell planned kits that would use materials that Leonardo would certainly be familiar with - wood, cloth, and cord.
DA VINCI DESIGNS
Six of the ten da Vinci kits have been issued, and they are not only an intriguing cross-section of his designs and inventions, but certainly look the part in these traditional materials. They are also reasonably easy to build, as both wood and cloth parts are pre-cut and pre-stained.
AERIAL SCREW KIT
The first kit I’m looking at - the rest will follow - is one of Leonardo’s best-known designs, the Aerial Screw, or as some would have it (although really incorrectly!) his ‘helicopter’.
Revell provides great details for the build, with everything in five languages, headed (naturally enough) in Italian. You get the layout of the pre-cut wood parts, and the cloth for the ‘sails’; full-colour (well, ‘sepia’ to be more precise) instructions, and a booklet on the thinking behind the design. The Aerial Screw would not have worked in reality, as it was far too heavy, but the principle was correct and is the way modern propellers function.
