POWERUP 2.0 Paper Airplane Kit Electric Plane Motor Launcher DIY Toy - Blue | Ready-To-Use Aeroplane Engine Kit. Fly Longer and Farther. Premium Gift Pack for Creative STEM Aviation Hobbyist Builders.

Buy it! Seriously, just buy it. If you are reading this you are thinking about it so just go ahead and don it.ZERO regrets. This thing is amazing. I am truly impressed. Our son (age 8) likes to fly styrofoam airplanes outside. I came across this while Christmas shopping and went for it. Being mostly paper we didn't expect much, figured it would go farther but nothing like this thing. First flight was poorly aimed and went straight to the roof. I although for sure it was a goner but this thing flew over the house, back around to the side our son was on then some before crash landing. It wasn't a fluke either, this thing moves. Despite being paper, it survived numerous crash landings before finally decided to move onto the second sheet of paper. Super fun, we even bought a second one for our other son!

Bought this for my father who enjoys little engineering challenges like this.The motor works well and is very simple to use. It can be charged, flown, and discharged quickly and easily. The provided paper airplane plans will get you started but you'll definitely need to tweak the design to get a successful flight. Be ready to crash often while you perfect your design. That's part of the fun! An empty gymnasium or other large room is the perfect space in which to fly this. When we finally got our aircraft just right we were able to get over ten seconds of sustained flight.It isn't the most durable since it has to be so small and light to fly. Although it survived quite a few bad crashes my motor mount did eventually break. It may be fixable and mine did come with a spare propeller. Despite the break, I got more than my money's worth of enjoyment out of this little toy. I recommend it!

This is a very neat little toy.I know a lot of the others on here are having difficulty getting their planes to fly, but with basic understanding of Aerodynamic principals, you can get this propeller to carry a paper plane for a significant distance. If you build them right, you can get your designs to fly several hundred feet!The designs that come with the product don't always work amazingly well, so you should experiment with your own.It's key to get the largest wings possible to provide as much lift as possible since this propeller does not have an enormous amount of thrust. Then you also want to make sure your airplane's center of mass is in the correct spot, since if its too far back you will have your plane go straight up and dive, while if it's too far forward, it will dive straight off.Just like it says in the instructions, you want your plane to be able to fly well with the engine turned off, before you can expect it to fly well with the engine turned on.

Fun? YesGreat gift? YesActually crash proof? NoThis was a fun gift, but broke on the first afternoon of playing with it. I honestly am not surprised, not many things can survive dropping from 20-30 feet. My beef isnt that it broke, my beef is that it broke when they claimed it was "crash-proof".I had fun while playing with it with my kids, but it wasn't worth the $20 for the hour we got before it broke

Does not work well at all. Not worth the money

This thing has taken paper airplanes to a whole new level! Must get for plane enthusiasts. Such an incredible toy for all ages! Easy to set up and use. Make sure you read all the instructions first. The elevators made all the difference to keep the plane in the air for minutes!! Sorry for the language in the video but we were so amazed by this thing.

I teach high school aviation courses and just got these to include in the curriculum. It is a nice addition when talking about control surfaces and their impacts on flight. As the battery starts to drain, the airplane will stall, dive, and recover which leads to another discussion. I got the basic 2.0 kit. It came with a paper template for one model and then it had links to other models in the included paperwork. The students enjoyed comparing the performance of the models and troubleshooting each model when it didn't behave as desired.I will say that you should not be surprised when some struggle with the initial airplane folding. Even with video instructions, I had several get a bit frustrated with the folding. I do not see this as a bad thing. I want them to have the experience of following instructions and building something. If it leads to them having to learn to deal with productive struggle, even better. This is something that is missing in their lives as they do more and more in the virtual world. If you have students that you know will struggle with the folding for whatever reasons, the models do vary in difficulty so you can guide them to an appropriate plane.I used them for 2 sections for 3 periods. The battery packs are still performing well and all propellers are intact. I did have a student snap a stabilizer bar, but it is not crucial. There is a spare parts kit offered on their site that I will be getting in the future but had the student experiment with using a larger paperclip for the repair this time.In closing, I absolutely recommend these for class. I look forward to seeing what else we can bring out of their use of them. (The video is only 5 seconds of the 25-second flight.)

We had a chance to play with this toy for about 10 minutes before it died. Our paper airplane landed on the ground on about the 6th throw and the motor stopped completely. Now the unit is dead and does nothing but get warm when trying to charge it up.Being that our son is a huge fan of paper airplanes, he was so excited about this conversion kit. I think this product has a lot of potential, but it needs to be WAY more durable.

devo dire che è divertentissimo. Per natale ho comprato un libro su come fare gli areoplanini di carta e cme option ho aggiunto questo accessorio e devo dire che i bambini si divertono molto. L'autonomia è di circa 30 secondi e ne bastano venti per ricaricarlo. Secondo me è un'ottima idea che permette ai più giovanissimi di imparare mestieri manuali invece di stare davanti a tablet e telefoni.

Es una pasada, a mi hijo le encanta. Buena idea aunque hay que leerse muy bien las instrucciones antes. Muy divertido

Kam als Geschenk gut an und hat alles wichtige dabei. Qualität und Haltbarkeit kann ich allerdings nicht bewerten.

リポ電池使用の小型飛行機も安く売られていますが、翌面積不足の上モーター音がうるさ過ぎます。その点この商品を小型グライダーに載せると手頃な飛行機になります。折り紙飛行機ではなく、もう少し大きく丈夫な構造の立体凧がお勧めです。重心位置合わせを丁寧に行うのがポイントですね。

I have the power 4.0, this 2.0 is great for young children without mobile phone and yet able to have great fun building different paper planes and have powered flight on them. Thanks!
