Airfoil Puddle Jumper Whirlybird

thingiverse

I've been eager to build a puddle jumper for ages, and I'm thrilled to have finally made it happen. The outcome is quite impressive: Extremely stable and I can get them to soar up to 20 feet high with ease. To create one, you'll need the following components: 1 Peg 1 Hub (2-bladed, 3-bladed or 4-bladed) 2-4 blades depending on your hub's design Additionally, I'm sharing hubs and blades for both right-handed and left-handed users: * Right-handed hubs are designed for counter-clockwise spinning flight. * Left-handed hubs are perfect for clockwise spinning flight. It's crucial that your hubs and blades match to ensure the air foil is correctly aligned with the direction of spin. To operate it, hold the puddle jumper between the tips of your left or right hands (depending on which hub and blades you printed) and the base of the palm of your other hand. Get it spinning by pushing out with the hand touching the finger tips and rolling it against the other hand. No need to toss it up – simply spin it faster for a higher flight.
