PILOTED FLIGHT – This smartphone-controlled paper airplane allows users to pilot custom-folded paper, foam, or balsa wood planes via Bluetooth. The module includes autopilot functionality, enabling high-speed aerial maneuvers with real-time control through a connected device. STABLE PERFORMANCE – The built-in flight computer adjusts for wind conditions and provides launch assistance. Acro Mode enables precise aerobatic tricks such as loops, barrel rolls, and hammerheads, making it suitable for hobbyists and students. APP INTEGRATION – The POWERUP App pairs with the plane for flight control, performance tracking, and leaderboard competition. Users can also access folding tutorials for different airplane designs. EFFICIENT POWER – A 30-minute charge via micro USB delivers 10 minutes of flight time, with a range of up to 230 feet and speeds reaching 20 mph. STEM LEARNING – Demonstrates core aerodynamic principles like lift, drag, thrust, and gravity through adjustable wing configurations. Compatible with optional Night-Flight and Accessory Kits for expanded experimentation. Suitable for educational settings or family activities.

The ANY FIX spare parts kit ensures quick repairs for remote-controlled paper airplanes, allowing uninterrupted flight time with the POWERUP 4.0. Having these parts on hand minimizes downtime and extends the lifespan of the system. The SHARPEN SKILLS components help maintain optimal performance for acrobatics, speed, and altitude control, ensuring the plane operates like new. Keeping spare parts available prevents disruptions during flight sessions. Designed for STEM education, these parts support classroom lessons on flight principles such as lift, drag, thrust, and gravity. Teachers can efficiently manage maintenance when using multiple units for repeated instruction. Developed by a pilot, the system includes quick-touch acrobatic controls for loops, barrel rolls, and hammerheads, all operated via iOS or Android devices. The POWERUP 4.0 is a durable, technology-driven system focused on sustained flight performance. This spare parts kit simplifies maintenance, enabling users to experiment with new designs and maneuvers. For enhanced visibility, the Night Flight kit can be added for after-dark operation.

The POWERUP 2.0 paper airplane conversion kit extends flight time to over 30 seconds, allowing paper planes to achieve longer and more stable flights. Suitable for all ages, it serves as both a recreational activity and an educational tool, introducing basic principles of physics and simple electronics. Constructed with durability in mind, the kit features a carbon fiber propeller shaft and a reinforced rear propeller designed to withstand crashes. It works with various paper airplane designs, and the pack includes starter templates for easy assembly. The kit requires just 20 seconds of preparation before flight, ensuring minimal downtime between launches. Compatible with standard paper airplane designs, it encourages experimentation with different folding techniques while maintaining reliable performance.

PowerUp - Electric Power Module will convert origami homemade paper airplanes from a glider into a soaring free flight airplane. Make a paper airplane from any 8.5x11 or A4 copier paper and clip on to it the PowerUp electric module. Quick charge and toss the airplane into the air. 3x1.5V AA alkaline Batteries and paper for the airplane are not included. This product is great for science classes and after school activities. It is lots of fun and challenging for both kids geeks adults and seniors. It could be used in science fairs and aerospace competitions. Launch date: July 2011.
