MapleCopter

MapleCopter is a big version of the seed helicopters that float down from maple trees in summer and fall. Build it yourself with this super-easy model kit! Now you can unlock the mystery of how these things fly with your own working model!

This version of the maple seed helicopter is larger-than-life, at ten inches long! A 6-year-old child can put it together. All you need is 30 seconds and 2 pieces of tape! The kit is made of natural wood for excellent quality and appearance. The counterweight is soft rubber for safety and comes in various bright colors.

In nature, winged seeds are carried by wind so the seed can find a suitable place to grow, away from the shade of its parent tree. With the MapleCopter, you can have your own contests for distance or see who can get the longest flight. It's a matter of throwing technique, and experimenting with the design.
