No it isn't. The issue is that we have poor actuator technology relative to our rotary engine technology, and therefore a helicopter does a better job than flapping wings. Biology has good actuators and lousy rotary systems, and thus favors wings. It's pretty much the same reason we like wheels better than legs.
