How Do You Make A Paper Airplane Go Faster?
Every kid has spent hours making the perfect paper airplane, only to see it fall flat. To make a fast and reliable paper airplane, there are a few things you need to do. The majority of the airplane’s speed and power come from its weight and its wings. To maximize the plane’s potential power, you need to make the wings large, the body stable, and the weight distributed properly. You can use normal paper with any of these tips, but a light card stock works even better. Double layer the wings, and make the outer edge a fold rather than a paper edge. This makes the wing stiffer and will improve its aerodynamics. Make the body as small as possible and the wing as large as possible, while keeping both parts rigid. Fold the body in multiple layers. This will make the body stiffer, and therefore it will fly faster and straighter. Tape the halves of the body together so the plane is a “T” shape. If you double layered the wings, you can tape them together as well. Use paperclips on the body to
