## Description

Catapults were first invented in Ancient Greek and Roman times, however our common idea of them is based on drawings we have from the Medieval Ages. Leonardo redesigned the catapult around 1485, and used the springlike energy stored in bent wood to give power to the swing arm.

Review: L'ho acquistata per mio figlio di sei anni, dopo che l'abbiamo vista in un negozio presso il castello di Amboise in Francia, a più del doppio del prezzo. Solo dopo che l'ha montata ho letto che l'età è dai 12 anni ed ho anche capito il perché. Non tanto per la difficoltà di montaggio, quanto per il fatto che quando è azionato, il braccio dà un bel colpo, che ho preso (due volte) sulla mano. Mio figlio però è stato più avveduto di me e non si è ancora fatto male. Il montaggio è abbastanza facile, mio figlio ha fatto quasi tutto da solo. L'importante è, secondo me, attendere un giorno che la colla si asciughi prima di usarla, altrimenti qualche pezzo potrebbe staccarsi all'atto del lancio e fare danni. Bello, lo ricomprerei.
Review: Vraiment bien, très rapide a monter. Faire bien attention au sens de montage de la roue crantée, on l'a monté a l'envers et c'est galère. Mais après quelques bidouilles elle marche très bien, et peut être utilisée en intérieur avec son boulet en pate a modeler. Une fois collée elle est nickel cette catapulte.
