Throwing!

Now you have a great stunt plane in your hands. But how does it do stunts? This is a crash course on how to pilot this paper airplane.

First the very basics. You have to throw this plane slowly to have a stable flight. If it dives, put the elevators up higher.

Now for some tricks.

To make it do a small stall, and then flip over and glide down, throw it almost straight up, just a tad forward.

For a large loop, throw it straight up, but this time a little backwards.

To make it do dips, throw it straight.

Remember, with all of these tricks, throw it slowly!

oh also.... if thrown slightly angled to one side (I'm right handed to i angle left) and thrown not too softly ever so slightly upwards, it should turn in the direction angled, and return to you. amazing plane mate, gona try to learn to make off by heart- show it off to mates :)

Amazing! finally a simple to make plane that can stay in the air for a while AND do some tricks. Also, to do a tight loop, hold by your leg upside down (elevators sticking away from you) and throw it upwards fairly hard (sometimes works better softly, depending on how folded) plane should do a tight loop and return to you at about knee-ankle level.
