A beautiful masterpiece of Lego design & engineering. The final product looks far more complex than the build itself, thanks to the usual excellent Lego instructions. About 2 hours to finish, and I can’t stop smiling. Thanks Lego, more inventions with a historical twist please.
Great build. I have a large wooden kit of the same thing. Large diagram on the wall and this kit below it. It looks impressive for a small kit. Really like the wing action. Make more of Leonardo's inventions if possible.
Some of the picture instructions do not adequately show angles that allow the average builder to fully understand how mechanical parts should be inserted. Step 121 is a great example of what im referring to. Without the app to move the view of the model, I'd think some builders my struggle.
Overall I would recommend this set - the end outcome is really impressive. The directions could have been clearer, specifically bags 3 and 4 related to the wings. Fortunately I caught some of the gaps and was able to assemble the wings fully at the end of the build (attaching from wings with string to the main body).
