Using the paper plane gun designed by "Thisfact" this STEM activity was created. The designed base enables students to scientifically test different paper plane designs by ensuring power, launch angle and height are the same. Students build paper planes and then resting the base of the assembled paper gun on the same desk can shoot different paper plane designs and the compare things like flight distance, flight time or accuracy.

Think about engineering design using the science of how wings work (wings are thicker at the front). Think about quality and accuracy of the manufacturing of the paper air plane (length/location and crispness of paper folds). Think about experimentation and testing of different designs (prototyping of design). Using the 3D printed paper plane guns a fair comparison is made ensuring launch angle, elevation and power are the same between all tested paper airplanes.

Recommended print settings are

Material:  PETG

Nozzle:  0.4mm

Perimeters: 5 or 6

Supports: None

Brims: None

Can be printed in other materials like PLA but it may not last as long.

Assembly

The gun has little helper disks that need to be cut off with flush cutters. (These were put on to reduce issues of bed adhesions for students who may not be cleaning the print bed properly.) There are only two ways it can be assembled with the base sliding into the gun. Refer to picture to make sure that the base is facing the correct way before gluing them together with a dab of superglue. (refer to pictures below)
