Avenger- the best paper airplane

Thursday, November 24, 2005 by Agent W

There was a post about "How to build the best paper airplane" months ago. I tried to make some paper planes following the instructions, and they fly great. Now, I found in the news that some college students from the UK came up with the best paper airplane design.



Their design is the best because it contains the ideal balance between complex aerodynamic principles and simplicity of design. And it looks a lot like the Concord, too. But its name is "Avenger". Instructions here!

And here's the tips from "Avenger's makers" [Link]
  • The nose must be heavy to ensure stable flight. A paper clip on the nose should allow the plane to fly further
  • If the plane tends to nose-dive because of the heavy nose, bend the back edge of the wings upwards slightly
  • The centre of gravity should be towards the front to prevent the plane from stalling
  • The wings should be angled upwards to give the plane a slight “Y” shape when viewed from the front
  • Winglets added to the edge of the wings will reduce drag
  • Check for symmetry by looking down the nose of the plane and refold it if necessary. It will not fly smoothly if it is not entirely symmetrical
  • Be patient and make small adjustments rather than radical changes to the basic design

I've already made one myself. All you need to do is just follow the instructions and be patient. I cut off the side of A4 paper about 2.5 cm to adjust the overall balance. It works well for me.

    interesting but as a child 45years ago we were making these planes so i don't see how it can be new???

    This is an Italian design plane just modified. Just like the fucking canadians taking advantage of my granfather by stealing his ideas for inventing commercial airplane wings. To many greedy people.

    It didn't say it was original, it says it was the best. Potentially they researched all available designs they could find? Why don't people think before they start bitching.

    Havent you people got anything better to do!, Italians, what have they ever done since the Roman empire...NOTHING, as usual its left to the British to sort the crap out and come up with an original English design. There is proof of that design in an aircraft museum in croxsforth 1912. So stick that in your hamburger...bloody yanks always talkin!

    This is the funniest string ever. First there are morons fighting about who created this paper airplane (come on, we all thought we invented this when we were kids). Then anonymous 15 discovers the true powers of this plane. I hope those college students got a damn award, because now I've got a piece of paper doing all my work for me. Funniest damn thing I've read in months.

    canadia is still under British control! The closest they've ever gotten to being independent was when the got an a mendment to their constitution saying they didn't need British permission to amend their constitution! And it was the British that burned down the White House, a move that brought them into a serious recession! I guess canadians can't afford history books.

    After having a Canadian roommate for a year I learned that the Canadian national identity is: "I'm not American!"

    They are taught in school that what we Americans call the War of 1812 (which was a war between America and England) was a war between America and Canada and that they won. Nevermind that Canada wasn't even a country then. [1 July 1867 (union of British North American colonies); 11 December 1931 (independence recognized) ] Anyways, American troops did invade what is now Canada and didn't do to well and British troops based in what is now Canada did briefly take D.C. and set the White House on fire. The war as a whole seems to have been a stalemate.
