✈️ Mini Rubber Band Powered Airplane – Assembly and Usage Instructions
🔩 Necessary Materials
- Two 20 mm rubber bands or one 45 mm rubber band (to be wrapped around itself twice)
🧠 Operation
- The rubber band is twisted up to approximately 30 turns (more if the material allows).
- When released, the rubber band unwinds rapidly:
- Rotating the propeller, which generates lift and thrust.
- The airplane moves forward and rises into flight for a few seconds.
🛠️ Important Details
- Rubber Band Twisting: 30 turns are ideal for accumulating energy without breaking the rubber band.
- Propeller Direction:
Slightly bend both blades in the same direction (e.g., to the right when looking at the propeller from the front) to generate a consistent airflow.
↳ This creates lift and maintains stable rotation.
