1)Take a sheet of watercolor paper and a square wooden skewer
2)Mark out two wings and the connecting fuselage strip, making sure to add reinforcement flaps at the front of the wings for extra strength
3)Draw smooth rounded fillets where the wings transition into the fuselage — these will protect the paper from tearing on landings and give the model a clean look
4)Mark out a vertical fin made of two identical halves so that the fold line faces forward


5)Carefully cut out the glider template and the fin along the outlin

6)Fold the leading-edge flaps on both wings downwards and glue them down completely
7)Glue the wooden skewer underneath, strictly aligned with the central axis of the fuselage

8)Using the body of a marker or an empty pen, gently curl the wingtips upwards for flight stability

9)Glue the two halves of the fin together and attach it on top of the rear wing aligned with the longitudinal axis

10)Apply about 2.5 g of modeling clay to the tip of the skewer, let the glue dry, and balance the glider until smooth gliding is achieved
