Description
A super tiny, hand-thrown toy glider plane designed for great indoor flight. It flies super well and can go 30+ feet! Super fun toy for kids and adults! Super easy to use.
Print settings: 0.2mm layer, 15% infill (Bambu Textured PEI Plate recommended)
After printing, wait for the bed to cool down and bend the bed to get the plane off. Be careful not to bend the wings if you use a bed scraper!!! Bend the back fins up at a 45 degree angle like in the pictures, and you're ready to fly!
To fly, find a long open hallway or other open space (or outdoors). Grip the glider with your thumb and index finger, pinching it behind the wing. Throw it forward and let go!
It might take a few tries at first to learn how to use it and get good flights. Don't give up!
For longer flights, throw the plane from a high ground, like the top of a stairwell or a hill.
