Have you ever thrown a paper airplane and watched it glide smoothly through the air?
That’s a small example of flight — and it’s based on science!

Drones, airplanes, and even birds fly using four main forces that work together:
Lift, Weight, Thrust, and Drag.

Every time a drone takes off, these invisible forces push and pull against each other to keep it in the sky. In this lesson, you’ll learn how these forces work and do a fun glider experiment to see them in action.
