Paper Plane Experiment



We got given 4 pieces of A4 paper, with these pieces of paper we had to make paper planes. While making the first plane we had to find what was working and what wasn't working so that we were able to make a second paper plane more improved than our first paper plane. By experimenting the different planes that were made we will be able to find out what's working and what isn't working so that we are able to fix and improve our finalised model and move on to the next step.

What worked?
The form of the plane was right but nothing really worked well for it.


What didn't work?
Each plane I did seemed to get worse. Each plane that was thrown didn't go as far as 2 steps. I think what wasn't working was way the plane was made. It wasn't strong enough and the edges were blunt.

What's next?
Keep experimenting and experimenting until it is 'fit to fly', I guess.
