Helpful Tips


Equal wings: It's more important for the two wings to be exactly equal than it is for them meet the center crease. You can experiment with bigger and smaller wings. Remember--experts say that these models fly best when the width of the each wing is just enough to reach the center crease, no more and no less.

Remember to open up the wings before you launch it!

Method 2: The Basic Glider

Step 3Make the wing folds

The long, folded edges are the wing edges. Lay the airplane down again. Fold the wing edge downward and outward so that it meets the center crease exactly. Hold the wing edge on top of the center crease with one hand and crease. Turn the airplane over and do the same thing on the other side. Take care that the two wings are exactly equal. You're ready to fly.
