What It Is

Join us in our Financial District studio for a hands-on flying paper airplane class where you design, build, and actually fly your own remote-control plane. You'll fold and decorate your own paper airplane, then mount it onto a real dual-motor power module with a built-in gyroscope for smooth, stable flight.

Our FiDi studio is a spacious, creative space built for both solo makers and large groups. In about 1.5 hours, you'll go from a blank sheet of paper to a working RC aircraft you can pilot around the room, guided step by step by our instructor. No prior experience is needed. Just bring your creativity and get ready for takeoff.

A standout choice for corporate events, private parties, birthdays, and team building.

Take Flight

Design & Fold Your Own Plane

Design & Fold Your Own Plane

This isn't a kit you snap together. You start with a blank sheet of paper, fold your own airplane, and personalize it however you like. Draw it, color it, name it. Every plane in the room comes out different, and yours is entirely your own design.

Add the Motor & Take Flight

Once your plane is ready, you'll attach a dual-propeller power module with a built-in gyroscope, pair it with a remote control, and learn to fly. Our instructor walks you through balance, thrust, and steering so your paper creation lifts off and holds a steady path around our spacious FiDi studio.
