Happiness is that you can make a solid and easy to fold paper airplane which can fly for a longer distance with precision. Building a paper airplanes best is not so tough, you are just one sheet of paper away. We will guide you through this entire process of DIY with step by step tutorial. This paper airplane is easy to make, even a children can do this. This can easily go a long distance and fun to make, you can fly the outdoors and indoors just like that. Please don’t forget to check out our latest paper airplane directory update from Liftndrift. It has wide range of paper planes for everyone to learn their science and experiment with aircrafts. Let’s make a good paper airplane to have some fun!
Two minutes for Noodles! isn’t it? Three minutes for Paper planes! It’s that simple with liftndrift*
Supplies Required:
- A4 Sheet of Paper or a Foolscap Paper with 70-90 GSM
- Ruler or Flat thick object to flatten the folded edges to make a strong crease.
Step 1:
- Keep the A4 sheet of paper in Portrait orientation and fold them from Left to Right equally as shown in Fig.1
- UNFOLD them once done.
Step 2:
- Now bring the Top Left-hand edge and Top Right-hand edge to the center crease
- Make sure you don’t cross the center line
Step 3:
- Fold the Nose down to the center line from the yellow dot to dot
- Refer fig.3
Step 4:
- Flip the paper airplane to the other side of your plane.
Step 5:
- Fold the left and right side edge of the paper to the center line and UNFOLD it
- Check the fig.5 and fig.6
Step 6:
- Now begin the fold from the lower part of the previous fold & fold it equally- Check the fig.6
Step 7:
- Now, roll it over inside – Check fig.7 and fig.8
Step 8:
- Now, flip your paper over to the other side
Step 9:
- Now, have a look at this top thicker nose section
- Fold the triangle section up to half as shown in fig.9
Step 10:
- Pull both of the inner fins outwards diagonally and fold
- UNFOLD – step 9 and step 10 once done
- Refer fig.10, fig.11
Origami Alert
Step 11:
- Now, pull out both backside sections and unfold the nose too
Step 12:
- Now fold the fins from step 10 inwards like a envelope
Step 13:
- Now fold the nose as shown in fig.13
Step 14:
- Fold the right and left unfolded sections to the backside – refer fig.14
Step 15:
- Fold the upper triangle inside like a envelope – you can compare fig.15 and fig.16
Step 16:
- The quest of how to make a good paper airplane never skips a step like this.
- Mountain fold the paper airplane equally to half
Step 17:
- Fold the wings on both side here – The diagonal right side should match with straight left side
- Remember to fold it properly and check for their symmetry.
Step 18:
- Clearly observe the step 18 – on both top-left and lower-left sections
- Fold the upper and lower sections and UNFOLD once done
Step 19:
- Push both top and lower sections inwards – you can compare fig.19 and fig.20
Step 20:
- You have successfully made it. Now your paper plane will be looking like this – see fig.20
Step 21:
- Fold the nose down on both sides – compare fig.21 and fig.22
Step 22:
- Fold the wings on both sides with the dotted lines as the center
Step 23:
- This is great! You have successfully made a good paper airplane!
- All you need now is to find a open space to fly it with cool attitude.
- You can share this to your friends/family or your school gang!
- Busy making all of our free paper airplanes.
Best paper airplanes flying technique:
- Hold the Plane behind the center of the plane’s gravity center
- Keep your left foot slightly forward and launch it in 30 – 40 degrees angle, throw it steadily with a medium force. If it fails, tweak the tail wing slightly up and try again.
- Try different angles and forces now! Wow, That’s how one learns properly with more trying and flying. Kudos!
