Flying Objects work under one principle called Bernoulli’s principle that helps the aircraft to achieve lift because of its shapes like wings and structural shape. The wings are designed in a way that the air passes above them and move faster and underneath slower. The fast-moving air creates low pressure and slow-moving air creates high pressure pushing the aircraft upside makes it fly! Smart fly paper airplane is one of the best paper airplane from LND which is designed using Bernoulli’s principle in a way to produce good thrust and Lift! Let’s make Smart Fly!
Two minutes for Noodles! isn’t it? Three minutes for Paper planes! It’s that simple with liftndrift*
Supplies Required:
- A4 Sheet of Paper or a Foolscap Paper with 70-90 GSM
- Ruler or Flat thick object to flatten the folded edges to make a strong crease.
Step 1:
- Keep your A4 sheet of paper over a flat surface or over a reading table in landscape orientation
- Valley Fold is about 2 cm from the left as shown in Fig.1
Step 2:
- Fold the paper into half from bottom to top, make a crease in the center and UNFOLD after that
Step 3:
- Fold diagonally the top left-hand corner and bottom left-hand corner to the center crease you made in the previous step
- Refer to Fig.3 for your doubts, also note that you shouldn’t be crossing the center line
Step 4:
- Fold the triangle down along the dotted line as the center
- Align the Nose to the center line straight.
Step 5:
- Fold the paper airplane into half from the bottom to the top and check for its alignment.
Step 6:
- Fold down these corners to the bottom fold on both sides.
- Make the fold firm and tight.
Step 7:
- Now, make the wings by folding them about 2 cm from the bottom on both sides of the plane
- Refer to Fig.7 and Fig.8 for your doubts
Step 8:
- Lift up the wings to make it look like ‘T’
Step 9:
- All set for an official launch, Go roar the sky!

Smart fly launching technique:
- Hold the Plane behind the center of the plane’s gravity center
- Keep your left foot slightly forward and launch it at a 30 – 40 degrees angle, throwing it steadily with a medium force. If it fails, tweak the tail wing slightly up and try again.
- Try different angles and forces now! Wow, That’s how one learns properly with more trying and flying. Kudos!
