This super-fast dart flyer requires only a sheet of paper and three patient minutes. Take the challenge and dig out a stopwatch and tape measure to record your best "time aloft" and "distance traveled". I usually write mine right onto the wing itself (on the underside).

In fact, each time it flies well, I'll take a measurement and so pretty soon my plane has a data table under the wing. This way, I know which plane to choose in a race!

    I believe the center of balance on my “dart plane” is too far to the front. It drop quite suddenly after starting out steady for five or so feet. I am going to try adding some weight to the back for more stability in flight.
