Each team consists of no more than three students.
The team members must be from the same school at the time of the competition. Graduating (eg. Primary 6) students at the time of registration are not eligible to register as team members.
Each team is to make 3 paper gliders to compete in 3 missions which will be made known in the Challenge Announcement.
Paper gliders will be made according to the following rules:
 

(a)

(b)

(c)

Each glider is made from no more than one standard 80GSM A4 size paper, which will be provided by the organiser. Use of own paper is not allowed.
Crayons, colour pencils and markers, scotch tape, paper clips, staplers or glue may be used, but will not be provided. Use of other materials is not allowed.
No external propulsion (rubber bands, electric RC motor etc.) is allowed. Paper gliders can only be launched by hand and unassisted (by catapult etc).

Most parts of the flying machine must be fabricated by the teams. No kits or off-the-shelf model flying machines are allowed.
The flying machine must have the following dimensions: minimum length (400 mm), minimum width (500 mm) and maximum height (500 mm). For safety consideration, total weight of flying machine cannot exceed 500 grams.
The flying machine must be radio controlled by off-the-shelf radio systems. Each participating team will be notified with a specific assigned radio frequency after completion of registration.
Only electric flight is allowed. Both brush and brushless motors are allowed. No modification to the motors is allowed.
No internal combustion or gasoline engines will be allowed.
The details of approved motors, propellers and servo sizes will be released during the Challenge Announcement.
