Review: Amazing tool for paper plane… great addition to paper plane enthusiasts - Everything great but battery only last for 10mins and the accessories to upgrade the plane appear to be overpriced. My son loves it but after 2-3 weeks playing it he stops to explore it further. Lets see if any new model will be introduced in the near future.
Review: Nice and cool - So good it is good it can fly but I hate the 2.0 I love the 4.0

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What size/guage of paper or card is needed to fold extra designs please?**
A: Regular A4 printing paper

**Q: can you control direction from the phone app?**
A: Thank you for your question. Yes you can control the direction of the POWERUP 4.0 by using our free app. This is done by tilting the phone left or right and the twin motors respond accordingly. Let me know if you have any additional questions! Thanks, POWERUP

**Q: Which android system does it work for?**
A: I know it works on my phone OK - that's Android 10.

**Q: Will this app and software work on an iPhone 5th generation?**
A: No, it will not.

As the seller has said, the app requires iOS 12.0, and the latest version of iOS the iPhone 5 supports is 9 (I think!)
The iPhone 6 would support iOS 12, but not 13, so it will run the app now, but in the future, it may not.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing tool for paper plane… great addition to paper plane enthusiasts
*by A***H on 7 June 2025*

Everything great but battery only last for 10mins and the accessories to upgrade the plane appear to be overpriced. My son loves it but after 2-3 weeks playing it he stops to explore it further. Lets see if any new model will be introduced in the near future.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice and cool
*by Q***H on 11 October 2025*

So good it is good it can fly but I hate the 2.0 I love the 4.0

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ design flaw
*by K***O on 31 December 2024*

Quite good fun and more powerful than expected. The design flaw is that if you lose your bluetooth connection it'll just fly 'where ever it wants' - in our case, over the neighbouring houses and is now lost in action. One really needs to be in a big field to fly this and not lose it.
