The Powerup Paper Airplane Book gives kids a fun introduction to the science of flight while turning ordinary paper into high-flying creations!

Designed to work brilliantly with the Powerup range, this 59 page guide explores the basics of aerodynamics in a hands-on way, helping young builders understand how shape, balance, thrust, lift, and drag affect the way a paper aircraft performs in the air.

It is packed with step-by-step folding instructions and handy video tutorial links that make creating exceptional paper airplanes even easier and more exciting!

Each of the 10 paper airplane designs has been specially chosen to pair well with the Powerup 2.0, 3.0, and 4.0 kits, helping kids get even more fun, distance, and control from their flying creations.

Young builders can test different wing shapes, folding styles, and flight patterns while learning how small design changes improve speed, stability, and glide time!

  • Includes 10 paper airplane designs with step-by-step folding instructions and video tutorial links
  • Introduces STEM concepts including aerodynamics, lift, thrust, and drag through hands-on learning
  • Designed as the perfect add-on companion for Powerup 2.0, Powerup 3.0, and Powerup 4.0 kits (sold separately)

The Powerup Paper Airplane Book is a brilliant add-on gift for curious kids who enjoy science, engineering, and building things that really fly.

It is the kind of activity that keeps young minds busy long after the first launch across the room!

I love this book and would recommend it to others who have one of the power-up planes. The book gives a wide variety of different planes for different styles, also, if you are into making you own planes, this book is also for you, with tips to keep you planes steady and if flight for longer. This book is for anyone who has a power-up module or getting one.

The flight tips scattered in the book are great. Every time that my plane doesn't work, the book is my first and usually only way of fixing it. It also provides a verity of paper airplane models that will satisfy everyone. Awesome way of making your power up experience better.

I am going to try to upgrade this inventions. I bought 1 first then I started flying it and it became my best hobby. I can take it where ever I like and fly it. It can even deliver written messages like a pigeon. Now I have 3 of the Powerup4.0. I hope for more grate inventions like the one with camera, can’t wait.

I loved this book and enthusiastically read it as I made a bunch of planes, a few failed first attempts as well, lol. I then used video to further assist me. I would recommend this book to anyone truly interested in this hobby!
