Paper airplanes are the perfect scale models of real flying Gliders. Two challenges longest flight and longest distance. Even though my plane had a smaller wingspan we decided to use it in the longest flight.
My plane was pretty balenced with thrust,weight,Drag and lift. My plane was based on a jet. Smaller wingspan many Flaps and lots of speed. After the design was done I thought it would have the actions of a jet but it was the complete opposite. My plane managed to fly for 5.06 second. It practically floated down to earth. After revaluation of the airplane I released there was a little pocket under the wing that allowed lift and send wind directly to the Flaps allowing it to gain altitude or to keep the airplane balenced depending on the wind.
