The name of this imaginary flying machine of Vinci was - 'Ornithopter'. In the 16th century, many people tried to make ornithapters inspired by this, but they never succeeded and many even lost their lives while testing it.

Today many experts believe that the same flying machine of Vinci gave the inspiration to man to make the helicopter.

But still this question must be arising in your mind that the type of helicopters we see today, who was the first to make it and when and when? So the answer is - Igor Sikorsky .

who invented the helicopter

Let us tell you that the helicopter was invented by Igor Sikorsky on 14 September 1939, it was the world's first single rotor experimental helicopter which was shown by flying in Stratford City of America.

Igor Sikorsky was an American Russian engineer and aircraft specialist. It is believed that Igor Sikorsky started working on helicopters from the year 1910, in which he got success by 1940. After this, helicopter manufacturing was started on the basis of his VS 300 helicopter. The Sikorsky R-4 was the first such helicopter in the world that was built on a large scale.

The invention of the helicopter

Russian-American engineer and aviation expert Igor Sikorsky showed the world's first single-rotor experimental helicopter by flying it in Stratford, USA, on September 14, 1939, nearly 80 years ago.

Although this helicopter, named the VS-300, flew for only a few minutes for the first time, but within a few months (May 13, 1940) Sikorsky made several improvements to it and then completed several flights in public.

Sikorsky began working on helicopters as early as 1910, and by the 1940s the VS-300 had become the standard for single-rotor helicopter manufacturing. Further in 1941, he also designed and built a military helicopter 'XR-4' for the US Army.

Sikorsky's helicopters had a variety of controls to fly them safely forward, backward, up, down and side to side. In 1958, Sikorsky's Rotorcraft Company also built the world's first helicopter that could take off, land, and float on water.

In 1944, American engineer Stanley Hiller (1924–2006) first made the blades of a helicopter rotor entirely out of metal to harden them. Due to this change in the blades by him, the helicopter started flying many times faster than before. In the year 1949, Hiller circumnavigated the whole of America with the helicopter he built – the Hiller 360.

When was the present helicopter invented

In 1958, Sikorsky's company built the world's first underwater helicopter and landed helicopter. Apart from Sikorsky, many people tried to modernize the helicopter. In 1944, American engineer Stanley Hiller hardened the blades of the helicopter's rotor using metal, after this change the helicopters started flying much faster than before. In the year 1949, Stanley Hiller circumnavigated the whole of America with his own made helicopter Hiller 360.

Let us tell you that only American engineer had tried to make helicopter, but before Sikorsky, two French brothers Jacques and Louis Breguet had made a helicopter named Gyroplane No.1 in the year 1907. This machine flew up to a height of 2 feet for about 1 minute, but it was not balanced.
