## Description

POWERUP 4.0 The Next-Generation Smartphone Controlled Paper Airplane Kit, RC Controlled. Simple to Fly with Autopilot & Gyro Stabilizer. : desertcart.co.uk: Outlet

Review: Easy to become just a bit obsessed with! - Bought for my kids, but mostly gets played with by their dad! The software really is quite impressive, it does take some getting used to though, and it isn't quite as automatic as I thought it may be. My son is 5 and is definetly too little to be able to fly it properly, my daughter who's 8 can though. You do need a fairly still day for the standard paper planes, and as I found out on the first flight, if theres dew on the ground or it's raining it's a no go for the paper planes, unless your able to catch them every time - a damp piece of paper is not and aerodynamically friendly material. You can however get non paper kits or design your own. Herein lies the genius of the product! We've probably spent more hours trying to get weird things to fly then we have spent actually flying. Great product, much more fun then simply flying a drone, and genuinely a cool way to get kids (and their dads) into aerodynamics.
Review: Nice and cool - So good it is good it can fly but I hate the 2.0 I love the 4.0

## Features

- PILOTED FLIGHT - Grab a sheet of paper, fold it, and go! Instantly put yourself in the cockpit of an amazing smartphone controlled paper airplane that does high speed tricks. The bluetooth module, which includes autopilot control, connects to your phone so you can experience the sensation of flying countless paper, foam, and even Balsa Wood airplane models.
- INCREDIBLE STABILITY - Loops, Barrel Rolls, & Hammerheads are achieved with the special Acro Mode! Your paper plane’s onboard computer automatically calibrates your paper airplane for imperfect weather with a built-in launch assist and wind stabilizer. Now hobbyists, tinkerers, or students can become the flight controller!
- RAPID CHARGING - A 30 minute quick charge gives you 10 minutes of flight time along with an incredible range of up to 230ft! Traveling up to 20mph, your plane will spend less time on the tarmac and more time in the air. Simply connect the included micro USB cable to a charging port and plot out your next journey.
- STEM READY - Experience the aerodynamic forces that make flight possible through various wing configurations. Lift, drag, thrust, and gravity are learned first hand. Purchase the Night-Flight Kit and Accessory Kit to see how different parts create a new experience. Great for an outdoor class or exploration together with family.
- DURABLE - The POWERUP 4.0 paper airplane features a tough carbon fiber body, nylon-reinforced nose, and motor mount. Built to handle crashes, its onboard computer safely lands it if out of range. Comes with a two-year warranty for peace of mind.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What size/guage of paper or card is needed to fold extra designs please?**
A: Regular A4 printing paper

**Q: can you control direction from the phone app?**
A: Thank you for your question. Yes you can control the direction of the POWERUP 4.0 by using our free app. This is done by tilting the phone left or right and the twin motors respond accordingly. Let me know if you have any additional questions! Thanks, POWERUP

**Q: Which android system does it work for?**
A: I know it works on my phone OK - that's Android 10.

**Q: Will this app and software work on an iPhone 5th generation?**
A: No, it will not.

As the seller has said, the app requires iOS 12.0, and the latest version of iOS the iPhone 5 supports is 9 (I think!)
The iPhone 6 would support iOS 12, but not 13, so it will run the app now, but in the future, it may not.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice and cool
*by Q***H on 11 October 2025*

So good it is good it can fly but I hate the 2.0 I love the 4.0

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ design flaw
*by K***O on 31 December 2024*

Quite good fun and more powerful than expected. The design flaw is that if you lose your bluetooth connection it'll just fly 'where ever it wants' - in our case, over the neighbouring houses and is now lost in action. One really needs to be in a big field to fly this and not lose it.
