The
Nakamura is a awesome plane. Do not squeeze the nakamura's keel together
like you are throwing a paper dart or airplane. This nakamura does
not have a trajectory. It follows a distinct and flowing flight path.
With the nakamura at rest, and the keel in its natural 'V' shape, is the
shape it must be flown in. Do not throw the nakamura. Gently
push it on its way and if it is trimmed properly, it will find its glide
speed and settle into its flight path. If it exhibits stalling characteristics,
gently untwist the wings by flattening the camber crease and try again.
If it turns left, then the left wing has more camber and or twist than
the right wing, and vice versa. If it spirals into the dirt, then
increase the amount of camber and or twist in both wings and try again.
Try to keep the wings as horizontal as possible, by this I mean that you
should have no anhedral or dihedral because swept wings take care of roll
stability.
Folding
Instructions: To fold the airplane you should follow
the steps below. On the left side of each step is how the paper appears
before folding. On the right is how the paper after folding. The
central image show the folds made on that step. |
