3D Printed Glider

PlasticGlider.png

I created a 3D printed one piece glider using Fusion 360. All you have to do is throw it like a dart or like a paper airplane. It is easy to design and allows your creativity to shine. I attend Ridgecrest Intermediate School.

Mess around with the glider.

  • Bend the wings up or down.
  • Use different infills.
  • Go back to Fusion 360 and make it lighter.
  • Make it heavier.


Ending

I am a 7th grader attending Ridgcrest Intermediate and I created this as a fun and quick way to make a a flying object. For the 3D printer step, if you do not have any 3D printers check in with your local school. I did with mine and my school was more than happy to help.
