Description

Throwable fighter jet that throws and flies just like a paper airplane! This model specializes in gliding from heights! The model is meant to be flown without the engines on. The engines easily snap in and out of place making a fast transition from display to play.

 

With this model, I wanted to create something that could look appealing as a display piece but also make a fun toy. This model is very good at gliding from high distances. You are also able to use this model like a paper airplane, though it might take a while to get a good technique. Tips on throwing the jet are found below. Good luck and happy flying!

 

More tips on throwing the jet:

  1. Hold the jet as I did in the second picture
  2. Have a slightly upward angle of release
  3. Find a good medium for the force at which you release it with. Too slow and it will nose dive, too fast and you will have no control.
  4. Ensure that the wings are level at the time of release. If they are not, the jet will not go straight.
  5. Modifying the print profile might change the center of mass and might require a different technique
  6. It might take a bit before you find what works, keep trying and it will work well

The print is fine, just couldn't get the plane to fly very well - seemed a bit front heavy.
