What Kind Of Plane Would Be Easy To Make?

In shop we have to make a plane out of recycled materials


He said we have to use at least 1 pop can


I was thinking of doing a biplane, but that looks kind of hard to balance the top wings. If you can think of an idea to balance them, that would be great. But if you can't what other type of plane would be easy to make and looks neat. But not too easy and not a passenger plane








Thanks a ton !|||ok i think you should go with the biplane idea, and heres how id do it:


first get your bottom wing made and find the middle and mark it, the hot glues the pop can right on top of that line, then take some toothpicks or balsa wood and make small supporting struts, and make sure to measure them and make them the same length so the top wing is level and even, then hot glue those to the bottom wing and while they're drying put the top wing on and make everything even and pretty, and you should have what looks like a bi-plane, but you'll need a tail...... and i guess you could make that out of a cuple popcicle sticks or something





hope that helped
