Several months ago I funded a Kickstarter project and this week I received POWERUP 4.0 - a kit to make a smartphone controlled powered paper airplane.
Considering our folding skills, E5N1 and I were not especially optimistic that our first try would fly:
but it flew well enough to do a close pass by Exile #4's window and attracted their attention - they thought it might be a very red bird. Soon we were all having a go to fly the plane in what suddenly seemed like a rather narrow space between the house and the trees.
Here is one of our most successful short flights:
Now we need to find a slightly larger area to get the hang of the controls.
