How To Make The Hoverfly Paper Airplane

Designed to enable paper helicopter operations in smaller places than the standard sized paper helicopter, the Hoverfly is a small "drone" chopper.

The Hoverfly was designed after I realized very few paper helicopter designs exist. Compared to paper airplanes, unique paper helicopter designs are scarce. The Hoverfly is the first helicopter I have designed, and I intend to design more to follow it.

TAA USAF Designation: HD177-1

I just had a flashback to dozens of lessons on air-resistance and investigation-planning, trying to keep control of classes full of kids throwing these in the air and trying to time their fall...

Looks cool. I don't understand how the eraser fits in to the hoverfly? Does the eraser act as a weight? Do you have a video of this in flight? thanx

The eraser serves no purpose to the Hoverfly. It was put in the shot to support the Hoverfly for the photograph.

At the moment, I am unable to make motion videos.
