These gliders are super quick and easy to make and provide lots of easy experimentation to get the best flight time.
I just made up a design off the top of my head that actually flew pretty well, but a little research will give you the best shapes and relative sizes to get the most out of your glider.
I cut the fuselage out of 3/32" balsa and the wing & stabilizer from 1/16" balsa. Be sure to use tabs when cutting these out. The tabs can easily be trimmed with a utility knife.
Estimated time: 5 minutes
The pieces slide right together so the assemble is super fast, but make sure you decorate the glider first to make it look awesome in flight!
Estimated time: 5 minutes
this horrible. IS that a joke ?

Thank you for posting this project. I have the same problem. 8 kids and a party. This is exactly what I bought my X-carve for - to be able to make memories and teach kids about life and making. Thank you for taking the time to post this video.

We made a bunch of gliders and flew them around the office. It was a lot of fun.

I expanded the size of the main wing and it worked a lot better.
