This design is relatively easy to fold, and if it is adjusted carefully it can glide for a very long distance. To optimize your throw for distance, try tossing this paper airplane at a 45° upward angle. Throw as hard as you can without causing the paper to deform in the wind. If ...
Pick your favorite paper airplane design that you use for distance. We recommend the Basic Dart for this experiment because it is quick and easy to fold. Using the same design, fold a bunch of paper airplanes using the different sizes of paper that you made earlier. Paper darts of different...
but the South African designers remain the best, chiefly as a result of the Paper Pilot books and associated competitions in the late 1993 sponsored by Volkskus Bank (now part of the ABSA group) with a prize of ZAR 10,000 for the longest distance flight by a paper glider. (SABC Televisi...
There are many more experiments you can perform with paper airplanes. Maybe this is the first step on you journey to being an airplane engineer or designer! Throw PAPER AIRPLANE DISTANCE (meters) Design 1Design 2Design 3Design 4Design5
This paper describes two examples of how a common, underlying design task--designing a paper airplane--was modified to meet the needs of two very different college science courses. Each had distinct curricular goals and populations of science students: a teacher education course for K-8 in...
In this section, we will test different modifications to improve flight characteristics, some adjustments will improve, and some may not, it all depends on what you want to achieve, i.e., fast flight, extra distance, longer flight time. At this point, ...

Introduction: We are going to design an experiment to test paper airplane flight distance. We want the planes to fly as far as they can. We need to think about how we are going to design and perform the experiment. What things do we need to think about? (Think about the steps of the...
How does the length or thickness of the rubber band influence the speed and distance of the flight? What is the impact of changing the paper airplane design on its flight performance? Then, create a hypothesis! Based on your questions, make predictions about how changing variables (such as ru...
Although often regarded a childhood toy, the design of paper airplanes is subtly complex. The design space and mapping from geometry to distance flown is highly nonlinear and probabilistic where a single airplane design exhibits a multitude of trajectory
