THE CLOUDRAVEN WORKSHOPFlightHub

A little design.
A little lift.

Choose a build and see it in 3D,
then make it yours.

Start with one sheet of paper, or add 3D printed parts.
Experimental builds for learning and careful testing.

01 / PAPEROne sheet

Paper

Fold patterns & studies

See a complete Classic Dart in 3D and start folding. Explore more patterns with the tools you have.

You need
One US Letter sheet
Build method
Paper only · no printer
Start with paper
02 / FOLDPrinted assembly

Fold

Paper + printed fittings

Wing support is incomplete: no spanwise frame or spar. Bench study only; a supported-wing revision and physical checks are needed before flight trials.

P1S prints
Three ordinary PLA fittings.
Also needed
Paper, a measured straw, tape and retained trim mass.
See Fold in 3D
03 / FLOATPrinted assembly

Float

A tethered lift study

Indoor tethered experiment. Measure net available lift with the intended line before downloading build files; fit and tethered behavior are untested.

P1S prints
Suspension frame and ballast tray.
Also needed
Helium balloon, line, anchor and retained ballast.
See Float in 3D
04 / SCOUTPrinted assembly

Scout

A fixed-wing bench study

Material, fit and strength need physical checks. This design is not flight-tested or approved for flight.

P1S prints
LW-PLA shells and ordinary PLA fittings.
Also needed
Design-specified carbon tubes and rods.

Concept illustrations · inspect the actual assembly in the Lab. These designs remain experimental. Paper's folds and flight are unverified. Float needs measured balloon lift; printed aircraft studies need fit, balance and structural checks.

MAKE · OBSERVE · LEARN

Start in the Lab.
Keep it in Studio.

Choose a build and explore its complete design. Start folding a paper airplane right away, or keep your exact design privately in Studio for next time.

  1. See your design

    Pick a build to open the complete 3D model. Try another design or open Customize when you want to change a choice.

  2. Prepare your build

    Follow the paper folds in the Lab. Keep your design in Studio to return later or set up a printed build and its required checks.

  3. Test and learn

    Compare the finished model with the guide. For printed builds, record fit, mass and balance in Studio. Your observations help you decide what to investigate next.

A CLOUDRAVEN LABS PROJECT

Built around curiosity.

FlightHub brings design, making, and observation to the same workbench. Start small, understand a choice, and learn from what you build.
