Three brothers. A lot of paper. A few dents in the ceiling.
Aircraft Funstarted on a rainy Saturday with one roll of printer paper and way too many creases. Now it's a real little shop the kids help run — picking designs, testing planes, and deciding which motorized kits are good enough to list.
Decides which folds get featured, manages the shop list, and writes the tuning tips.
Picks colors, names planes, and sorts out which designs look coolest on screen.
Tests every single plane. If it doesn't fly across the living room, it doesn't get added.
How the business works
We keep it simple so the kids can actually run it.
- 1Design new paper plane folds + photograph each step.
- 2Test-fly every design in the living room before it goes live.
- 3Pick kits from hobby stores, test them, write honest notes.
- 4Link out to the trusted hobby shops. We earn a small cut when you buy.
- 5No inventory. No shipping. No order line. Just recommendations and printable fun.
Kid-run, parent-supported
A grown-up helps with the billing stuff, reviews anything that goes to the internet, and supervises test flights that leave the house.
The kids pick the content, decide the colors, and sign off on every product before it goes on the shelf.
