      Since Da Vinci's list also details devices like a Perpetual Motion Machine, which is not realistically possible , 'tested' still holds, as the demonstration of these prototypes are not always aligning to his working principle description on the same.

    I read a fairly extensive biography on DaVinci, and it was suggested that his flying machines were not designed as functional pieces but rather as props used in theatre. Some other interesting things ... (1) he was a homosexual, (2) vegetarian, (3) who preferred to wear a knee-high rose colored tunic. He did not write backwards as a way of “coding” his notebooks, but was (presumably) never taught how to write. He was obsessed with the shape of woodpecker tongues, and was described by all who knew him as a generous, kind-hearted human being. He paid full price for caged birds at the market, and released them into the wild. His life, like most of ours, was filled with success and failure. It was difficult for him to obtain commissions as he was quite capricious. He had an appetite for knowledge and never stopped in the pursuits to obtain it. Such as a fascinating, yet ordinary, person.

      The main problem with it would be that the farm animal would be trampling over the crops. You could make it so that the animal is behind, pushing but controlling it would still be more difficult. In turn you could be pulling the harvester but it would most likely be heavy and much more work than a scythe. Just envision modern day stalk harvesters. The engine is behind the blades fixed and has a collection system so no harvested crops are damaged.

It's not actually overbalanced, firstly (one side has farther weights, the other side has a greater density of weights, which always work out to be equal), and the friction of the moving weights and momentary imbalances create a pendulum-like force that quickly robs it of its forward motion. Start it either direction and it will spin, jerk and stop. Make a flywheel the same size and weight, spin it with the same initial energy, and it will spin longer because it has fewer moving parts. Unless I'm misunderstanding what you're saying, there's really no meaningful energy storage on the scale of the whole wheel.

      I mean just because he was good with simplistic machines doesn't mean he'd be a good modern day engineer, and the reason he became good with these simplistic machines was because of the education he got. If you shove him into the modern day world with that same education he'd obviously be completely lost as modern machines rely on principles derived from quantum mechanics and thermodynamics, fields he probably couldn't even imagine in his wildest dreams. If you gave him a modern day engineering degree then he'd probably just be a good engineer, it's a lot harder to be that groundbreaking when all of the most basic machines have already been invented. Every modern day engineer is a Da Vinci of their own but it just looks a lot less impressive because you have to specialize so much in a single field that most people wont notice your innovations. He certainly has the drive which is probably the most important thing when it comes to making it through an engineering degree and then doing well in a job.

      Ikr i mean that could be used as a normal crop harvester since it uses similar system to modern lawnmowers, but a war machine??

    The fact that he invented the worm gear drive is insane. Shit is used in 3D printers now on every axis to apply huge force over the extruder location (part that moves). Super important mechanism in technology, just an example.

    Text at 6:53 is incorrect. Open differentials use beveled, helical gears to transmit power. The only differential they're used in is the torsen style to limit the torque applied to a single wheel.
