Folded after lunch

We used to toss paper darts off the deck and they just dropped. Saturday we folded A4, charged the battery that came in the kit, and my eight-year-old got a real first flight over the lawn. Gyro helped more than I expected. Props are loud-ish, but he did not care. We used to toss paper darts off the deck and they just dropped.

Took a few tries

I am not a hobby-shop person. We followed the guide, used 80 gsm printer paper, and the first two launches nosed in. Third one stayed up long enough that my daughter actually steered. Landing gear saved the fold. Wish the remote felt a bit smaller in my hands. I am not a hobby-shop person. We followed the guide, used 80 gsm printer paper, and the first two launches nosed in.

Weekend project

Bought this so my nephew had something besides screens. We charged overnight, folded a dart in the morning, clipped the module on. Dual props made it actually go, not just glide. He is six; I stayed right there. Best hour we have had in the park in months. Bought this so my nephew had something besides screens.

Paper we already had

I like that paper is not in the box. We used leftover A4 from school. Kit had remote, battery, USB cable, screwdriver and a spare prop. After one charge we were on the driveway. Gyro kept it from rolling as much as our old rubber-band gliders. I like that paper is not in the box. We used leftover A4 from school.

She wanted to steer

My kid has folded planes for years and always asked why they would not turn. Dual props and the remote finally answered that. We fly after school on the oval. Battery lasted our short sessions. Adult supervision is real; I still hold the first launches. My kid has folded planes for years and always asked why they would not turn. Dual props and the remote finally answered that.
