Infiniglider Construction

[Engineer of Stuff]

What are the best ways to build an infiniglider? I tried to make one, but failed.

Any tips?

Make it light, put loads of control surfaces on it. Winglets (the controllable kind) and canards are especially good. There's really not much else to it tbh. A parachute (and engineer) might be a good idea if you expect to be able to land in one piece though .

One of the more effective designs (for speed, at least):

You don't really need that many control surfaces to make one fly though. It's perfectly possible to make ones that look somewhat similar to real planes .
