" The Trixter"

	# 1	Start by folding one corner over as shown. Now unfold.

	# 2	Now fold the other corner over, and unfold again.

	# 3	In this step it gets a little tricky. You should now have an X mark design on your paper. Start by pressing in on both sides where arrows indicate, and press down on the top and flatten out. See illustration.

	# 4	After completing the last step, your plane should look like the illustration to the left.

	# 5	Fold the corner up. See illustration.

	# 6	Now, do the same for the other side.

	# 7	In this step, you will fold the corner down.

	# 8	Do the same for the other side.

	# 9	In this step you will fold from left to right. Red line indicates where to fold. See illustration.

	#10	Now make the same fold for the other side.

	#11	Fold the triangle nose over as shown. After folding the nose over, you will slip the two tabs from the previous steps into this triangle. Helpful Hint

	#12	Fold the right wing over 1- 3/4"or 4.4 cm. Then do the same for the left wing.

	#13	Now, fold the left and right wing tabs over as shown. See illustration.

Here are some helpful hints:		# 1 In step # 11 it helps to stick your fingers into the nose triangle area, this helps to open up this area to allow the side taps to slip in easier. Return to step # 11 # 2 This plane flies better if you crease the plane from the nose down the middle about 1 or 2"or 2.5 to 5.1 cm, giving the plane a little more dihedral in the wing. The plane usually flies upside down if this is not done.
