Rubber Band Powered Projectile

thingiverse

From my childhood, I've always been fascinated by shooting objects. When I saw tc fea's design of the Rubber Band Powered Flying Thing, I knew I had to give it a try due to its cool appearance. After successfully creating one, I contemplated enhancing its performance. Subsequently, I designed my own version with four blades instead of three and raised the instep for added weight. Additionally, I made the edges more slanted to improve airflow. This model was smaller than the original and served as a test variant. Both versions travel similar distances if shot similarly; however, my design is trickier to shoot due to its size. Potential improvements include increasing the size, widening the edges for easier use, and reducing height for better aerodynamics.
