This glider is perhaps the best in the series for breezy conditions, due to being a little heavier and larger than the others. Fine motor skills are required to build it. Prior experience with paper crafting and gliders is helpful. You can make this micro twin-engine in about an hour.

Two gliders can be made from a single sheet of card stock! Step-by-step instructions, with diagrams, are included.

You will need to download the pdf plans and print them onto material, then cut out the pieces by hand. Alternatively, you can use svg file and an automated cutter. Note that the svg file is just outlines and dashed lines for creases; grey reference lines that help with construction are only visible in the pdf plans. For best flight performance, use a beige file folder cut to standard dimensions (8.5" x 11" / A4) or a sheet of medium (80 lb. / 215 gsm) card stock.

Here is a video that shows flights. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLZzX0fQwWI

The PDF document measures 7.5" x 10". Print at 100% scale. You will also need...
1. #6 machine nut, 5/16" / 8 mm from flat to flat
2. glue stick
3. liquid glue
4. scissors
5. hobby knife
6. metal ruler

Nik Knox Nov 7, 2022

Instructions are not great. The video is nowhere near detailed enough. 'make creases on all the dotted lines. Refer to the drawing of the finished glider to see which are "valley" and which are "mountains"'. This was not possible. So struggled to make it but I think the second one will go better. A photo of the top of the wing as well as the bottom would have helped. I do like the look of the finished glider though and the first couple of flights were OK.

Response from ZDE Designs

I revised the plans to include different lines for "valley" and "mountain" creases, as well as letters to label the various pieces. Thank you for the constructive feedback. As time permits, I will try to revise the video and/or add images to the instruction document.

Enjoyed making this but I struggled with the instructions and could not have done it without stopping and rewinding the video multiple times. Is great for the purpose it was bought.
