You can build your very own fly powered model aeroplane if you have:

• Match stick
• Blade
• Freezer
• Glue
• Glass pot
• Patience (To catch flies)

In my opinion, the hardest or toughest part is to catch flies. I can’t even kill a fly without chasing like a mad man, they are so fast. So it’s quite impossible to catch one, alive. Can those flies be replaced by mosquito? The task shall be easier if those flies can be replaced by mosquito, but it’s another tough task to keep those mosquito alive. I will definitely try it out if someone could get me flies, is there anyone selling flies?

If you don’t understand the tutorial above, read the tutorial below summarized by me.

How To Build A Fly Powered Model Aeroplane

1. Use a blade to split a matchstick without removing the sulphur(the matchstick’s head)
2. Build a frame that looks like an aeroplane by using the split-ed matchstick
3. Catch some flies and put them in a glass pot, and place the glass pot in the freezer
4. While waiting for the flies to get cold, drop some glue on the aeroplane frame(wherever you want to stick your flies on
5. Get the flies out of the freezer and stick their legs on the position your glued on the plane
6. Breathe warm air on the flies (make sure your air doesn’t stink, or the flies might die)
