Take to the skies with this Elastic Band Launch Jet Glider!

Designed for fun, simplicity, and repeatable flights, this jet-inspired glider launches using a reusable elastic band launcher. Simply hook the glider onto the launcher, pull back, aim, and release for impressive flights across gardens, parks, and open spaces.

The design features a lightweight airframe, reinforced launch point, and a comfortable launcher grip for easy operation. Multiple colour sections are built into the model, making it simple to create your own custom colour combinations directly in your slicer.

Modifier meshes are included in every print profile and are used to fine-tune the weight distribution and balance of the glider. These modifiers are an important part of the design and help achieve the intended flight characteristics and stability.
