I was looking at all the great ideas for flying things and in discussing them at work a friend mentioned the seeds from maple trees.. 

so I drew a similar shape based on them and added a hook for launching. 

I printed this one with the iron filled PLA, but regular PLA would suffice.. I also enlarged it by 50% to get a 3" tip to tip width.

It's flexable and if you heat the wings slightly you can add airfoil shape.
