Title: Colorful Paper Glyder - Print, cut, glue & Fly
Post by: KALYANPRODHAN on June 06, 2011, 09:49:36 AM
Hi,
Here is some paper glider that looks grate. They are scaled model as well as looks grate.
See my model. I have just carelessly completed it. But you can do better than me.

They glide too well to see.

You can increase or decrease the scale during printing and make smaller or larger models.
By default they are printed in A4 paper.
Please check that all the pages are scaled in same %  instead of autoscale to fit page.

Here is the link of Planes.

Lovely link Kalyan, thanks a lot. Are you using ordinary printing paper or chart paper?

Wow Kalyan That was a dream come true for me  {:)}  {:)}. That was a lovely set of links. For long I was looking for a Plans to make Profile micro models. WW fighters specifically. I was going to go totally scratch build. But your links have the saved the day for me thank you so much.  :hatsoff:  :hatsoff:

I think the plans can be easily converted and made to a foam models with some effort.

wow ! check these out too ! I love em ! :)

@vineet, sundaramvelar: converting the p-40 could be possible. the F117 seems pretty tough.
@VC: Mine are ordinary chart paper. don't use thick chart paper.. it'll ruin the models. try to get thin and 'stiff' paper.

Oh, I am grateful to you for your reply. I made my first copy carelessly but with so grate result.

@ Sunlikestar - Just throw like old school rocket. It glides smoothly.
Moreover, if you experiment with elevator and rudder, you can get the result like RC.

I use normal A4 75 GSM  paper (I Use BiltCopyPower, but you may use other also.)

Biplane and triplanes are so small that I am trying to convert scaling a little bit larger but surely in A4 paper so that all can print and of course with our Forum Logo. Some may do it faster than me.

I have actually printed correctly(Proper scale as Most PDF reader scaled to auto.Just check the minimum % and fix it to that %) for master( ;) ) Augustin to gift in Doodhkundi meet, but forget to take. Surely post them later after as the pack lying to me.

@ VC - Surely your students beat you as their finger dimention is smaller than you.

Of course, don't forget to add weight for flying. I have made weight using Steel scrap strip cut and fold with pliers appx 1.2-1.5 gm (I guess).

Thanks kalyan my son and his friends have been enjoying these amazing paper models for chuck gliding. They just fly amazing. If launched from first floor and terrace they easily glide for about 70mtrs.

I have already the plans PRINTED on 75GSM paper.
85 GSM & 100 GSM papers are ready for the plans.

Printed Sets can be AWARD too for any competition ;D and Copy of plans (in CD) may be gift.

Please make the biplane and triplane. Then you will realize how funny are they.

And Sundaram Sir, Filling fuselage with low density thermocol will increase the life of those models.

Please use dry paper
and
avoid rainy days for high relative humidity.


Thanks
