YF 23 Sub Micro Paper Airplane that can actually fly!

[ahrlogan]

it didint work

[taoistflyer]

@ahrlogan try adjusting the nose weight and the tail angle.

[nanoman172]

what kind of paper do you use?

[taoistflyer]

@nanoman172 I used normal printer paper, but almost any paper including A4 works.

[mbrady168]

Dude, not cool.....I almost had a seizure at about 1:10

[supersoldier7738]

cooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooolllll i am so trying this

[taoistflyer]

@supersoldier7738 I've got about 20 more posted, if you like this one check the others out.

[supersoldier7738]

@taoistflyer

i printed on normal paper but it did not fly in a loop the loop, i think because the paper itself was too weak to support the force of a loop. Yes i did do the fold up things at the ends but it works as a great glider!

[taoistflyer]

@supersoldier7738 the stiffness of the wings is also very important, you don't want them to sag.

[supersoldier7738]

@taoistflyer

yes it is straight with a 5 degree angle going up, I think it is the paper because yours looks like a sort of cardboard, which will act heavier and stronger to support the wings. Although i did make a custom Boeing 797 out of normal paper and that flies very good! I added a rolled up paper at the front and flaps and x2 bigger winglets, it flies straight downstairs with ease and pulls up before it lands, like a real plane! Cool ;D

[Megalodon64]

Just for curiorosity, I tore off the right wing of this plane and folded the tails up and it flew straight!!!!!!

[taoistflyer]

@Megalodon64 I like that, experimentation is great and sometime offers better results.

[legoman123481]

could I request one it`s the f35.

[taoistflyer]

@legoman123481 I built one and should have a video posted before to long.

[Megalodon64]

ive played with this aircraft and i defenetly gotta say that it comes back to you very nicely when you throw it up at the right angle

[taoistflyer]

@Megalodon64 I'm glad it worked, stay tuned for more.

[justazim1]

man i love ur channel :D btw can we request model ? if we can that'll be awesome :D

[taoistflyer]

@justazim1 We appreciate your support, and aircraft request, I am happy to hear any aircraft suggestions you may have, some of my favorite ones like the 747 with a space shuttle wear from user requests.

[justazim1]

@taoistflyer well then i want a g6 ..lol and b2 spirit ....thanks :D

[taoistflyer]

@justazim1 I have a paper B2 spirit already posted, it's a good glider but not as good at looping.

I don't have a Gulfstream G650 but I'll definitely put it on the list,

[SuperOc17]

dat one person likes to fly kites..

[basilio928]

best guy ever met.....

[taoistflyer]

@basilio928 Thanks for your support.

[abelardo5453]

[abelardo5453]

hello @ taoistflyer good and I subscribed to your channel I expect you to answer this question What role ooo imrimes your airplanes as it is called by that kind of role I hope question?

[taoistflyer]

@abelardo5453 sorry.

I don't understand your question.

[666ImI666]

u got a lot of time on your hands there bud

[7Karpos]

@taoistflyer I love your videos i printed every plane you got, looking forward to see more planes + i subb to you :D

[taoistflyer]

@7Karpos we appreciate your support. it makes a difference. don't forget to check out the games section as well when you go to our website for the downloads.

[spodegod]

can you make a video how to fold the f-35?? please!

[taoistflyer]

@spodegod it is on its way

[iceboy1671]

it doesnt look like regular printer paper because i see flshes of light when you cutting it

[taoistflyer]

@iceboy1671 it was printed on a lase printer, that made it shinny

[papercrapdude1]

how do you figure out how big the tabs are on the front?

[bfsanusi]

what kind of the paper?

so can flying back.

how you do that?

[bfsanusi]

what kind of the paper?

[narutimate221]

ur the best in youtube

[riyadhish]

wat type of paper should i use?

[kimi450]

Should i print it in the back and front or only one side cause i print to of them and stick em back to back for both side detail and it gets too heavy. Any idea for that and pls see my pm

[taoistflyer]

@kimi450 you can print on both sides by printing on one side of the paper and then flipping it over and printing on the other side, but it is hard to make it match up. the only one i made that is aligned properly to be printed on 2 sides is the blue angle, the rest are one sided. don't print 2 and glue them together that makes it to heavy.

[kimi450]

@taoistflyer Thats why my planes dont fly. Did you get my pm , and thx my brother liked it alot.

[papercrafter234]

what kind of paper do u use?

[yaseen157]

hey do you know the only reason america secured the f22 lockheed contract coz they had the b-2 bomber? they said f 23 was much better and more stable but they wanted the b2

[saints4gta]

cool 5*

[ariffdaniel]

very awesome man....

can u make a big scale?

[Hkup5]

can i have some advise on how to do this cuz like i dont have color printer so i cant see the line so yha some advice would help.

[taoistflyer]

@Hkup5 This will sound funny but I've dun it when I didn't have a printer.

Tape a piece of paper to the computer screen and draw out the aircraft, it takes some time, but it can work, just don't make it to big, I've found that a 3 or 4 inch wing span is about the best size for normal paper.

[Hkup5]

@taoistflyer thanks also i think makeing the airplane outta card stoke is hard

[SuperGaminGirl]

@Hkup5 Love to see that video

[VodkaRussianNuclear]

Ok, you are amazing when it comes to this, thanks a lot for sharing your gift to the world

[MarcusLKF001]

hey i got an idea, try cutting all the flaps at the main wings so its adjustable!!! it works PERFECT for me =D it makes a lot of difference and resulted in a perfect flight!!! can you try it and reply me how it turned out for you? thanks

[blufilmsesa]

to make a challenge for yourself, i think you should make your paper aircraft even more 3D :D

[MrBowChickaBowWow]

what if i dont want to bend the tail up?

[taoistflyer]

Then you don't have to if you don't want to, I won't force you to.

It'll just fly straight instead of looping.

[nightowl8936]

Please also make a version of the McDonnell Douglas / Northrop / BAe JSF prototype ... I personally liked its looks best.

[taoistflyer]

That is a good one, what was it's official designation.

[nightowl8936]

"That is a good one, what was it's official designation."

Re: McD / Northrop / BAe JSF

I don't believe it was ever given an X designation such as X-32 or X-35, but here are the current best sources of information about it on the net.

Google for:

McDonnell Douglas JSF entry gallery

...And follow the SECOND and FIFTH links.

You might also like the NINTH which is a YouTube video about it.

Also, consider an X-36 model as well!

[taoistflyer]

I'll definitely put one together, I do have an x 36 and it flies surprisingly well, I just haven't had time to put together a video for it yet.

[staraptor2k9]

u are the BEST!!!!!!

[coaesf]

i don't know how to put it

THIS IS SO AWESOME XD

thnx man

[rhouel1]

hello! nice aircraft< when will be able to uplopad your designs in pdf format? we hope that we may able to download your aircraft designs....

[taoistflyer]

They are uploaded in JPG format follow the link in the video description.

[Jerrico71]

Hey man thanks a lot for sharing this fun ingenuity with all of us!!! It's much appreciated! These are all great!! I'm sure you have a backlog of requests so don't forget the last of the head to head contenders the X-32 & X-35 (now F-35 "winner") The James Bond mini micro jet the BD-5J would be cool too! Thanks again bro.

[taoistflyer]

I hope to get to them soon, i need to higher some staff to help me make videos, I have about 20 or 30 that i need to get dun.

[Revenger427]

sweet plane bro i made it and it works great

[rdehermoso]

were you learn to make that?????????????

[taoistflyer]

I taught myself.

[GreenDay4everr]

pretty swwett dude good job

[27T08T88]

can you make sigle templates instead of multi?

[BlackArrows272]

does the aircraft fly just in loop?

[taoistflyer]

No it can fly straight, it can do rolls, and it can do loops, it depends on how you bend the flaps.

[BlackArrows272]

I am an aircraft fan and i really love your videos! Thanks for uploading!

[taoistflyer]

I'm glad you enjoyed them, I have about 13 more aircraft coming, stay tuned.

[godfreek]

keep it up

[ryanbp111]

can you give me your email I have some f/a 37 talon pictures that might be helpful

[JJrox11]

that plane is awesome

[taoistflyer]

Do you mean the switchblade, I actually made one, and I was even able to get its wings to sweep forward. It's a little backwards though, with the wings swept back it will fly fast and straight, with the wings swept forward it's aerobatic and does loops. i should have a video posted of it soon.

[taoistflyer]

Do you have any real pictures of the aircraft, I have found a bunch of drawings but I would love pictures of the actual aircraft to work with.

[ThiagoCursino]

Can you upload the other models? We would be very thankfull. That F117 is great *_*

[taoistflyer]

all of them will be uploaded soon.

their will be 18 or 20 aircraft all together.

I havent made an f117 yet, but it is on its way.

[ThiagoCursino]

Man, I'm your fan!!!

[EnTeRtAiiNeR96]

again, 5* =)

[bleachxblitz]

i dont know how to make the front. can you make a slow video on that? Please help!

[taoistflyer]

I have just been rolling the nose weight , i used to fold it up but it is easer to just roll it up and tape it to the body.

I'll make sure to show it close up and slow in my next video. P.S. I like your f22 and the paper airplane in your thumbnail.

[AndreONEz]

Great one, but I have a question...

What happens if you don't bend the tail upward? Will it fly straight or it won't fly?

[taoistflyer]

they will fly straight, you can get them to fly in all sorts of ways with different configurations of the flaps. The yf23 is the best looper, most of them you need to fold the tail up pretty far to get it to loop. On the yf23 you barley need to fold it up at all. If you want the yf 23 to fly straight you may actually need to bend the tail down a little.

The f14 and the a10 have some of the best flight characteristics, I designed a way for the f14 to have sweeping wings, video coming soon.

[AndreONEz]

Oh thanks for the infos...

I have just another question...I've seen lots of paper airplanes in that table, and they're all awesome...Are you planning to release them all?

I can't wait if so! Keep the good work, you rock!

[taoistflyer]

I'll be doing a video for each and every one that you see on the table, plus a few more.

[turvocr]

oye amigo se ve que eres un fanatico del radio control y en barios videos tuyos que e visto se ve que tienes una coleccion grande de ellos estaria bien que un dia de estos nos mostraras tu coleccion seria bueno conocerla suerte y buenes videos.

[cheezboy1500]

HEY WHERE DO YOU GET ALL THIS STUFF?

[taoistflyer]

I designed all of them myself,

well I didn't design the aircraft they are based on, but I did design all of the paper airplanes.

[cheezboy1500]

can i get 1? do i need to pay you? do you sell all the helicopters you film?

[taoistflyer]

i don't sell them, you can download the paper aircraft for free by clicking the link in the video description.

[hulksmaash]

You CONTINUE to amaze me!

=D

[twrea]

Dog that is way cool- Love the music too! do more vids on the paper to use and folding please or if u could email me here on YT, thanks for the vid and nice in room air show, lol!!

[taoistflyer]

I'm glad you enjoyed them, I should be posting 6 or 7 more as soon as I am dun moving into my new place.

[killerlad9]
