The file 'Project Glider V2.0 3D Printer Model' is (obj,stl) file type, size is 33.4KB.
This project was inspired by Project: Rubberband Glider (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1744950). While its not a direct remix of the original files. Everything here was made by me and my daughter (Grade 3). I thought it important to give proper attribution. As the idea behind this idea was mostly inspired by insane66's version.
This is my first thing upload, so let me know if I'm doing it wrong :D
Its also the first time I have designed an aircraft more complex that a paper plane, so there are bound to be mistakes. Let me know what I did wrong so it can be improved in future models.
This thing is a work in progress. More photos, video and thing files will be uploaded as they are made.
The idea here is to make your own modifications, or your own new version and share it for others to try or to be inspired. See what you can come up with! Show us how it flies. Tell us why you did what you did and if it performed to expectation. If it fails, try to find out why and share with the community so others can avoid that mistake, or fix it, or repeat it and learn from the mistake.
There is video about how I came to make this thing and some clips of it gliding on youtube
