The weight, if concentrated towards the paper airplane's front, will make the plane a stunt plane. If balanced, the plane will be a glider or a dart. The Paper Aeronautics Association (http://www.paperaeronautics.org/tipsforagoodplane) have more tips on their website. it will work
Weight adds to the inertia giving the plane more momentum in flight. Yes!

Does the density of paper affect the flight of a paper airplane?
The heavier weight of a thicker paper will affect the range of the flight, and different folding characteristics and stiffness will affect the aerodynamics.
Will the flight of a paper airplane be altered if the weight changes?
Yes, weight may affect a paper airplane by increasing its mass. This may alter its glide ratio and change its wing loading.
How do flaps on a paper airplane affect flight?
It allows it to take off and land
Will the length of a paper airplane affect the flight of it?
I don't know isn't there somebody to answer this?
Does a design of a paper airplane affect its flight?
no.because the designs just make it look better so basicly it do not affect flight
Does the design of paper airplane effect its flight?
yes beacose it adds weight to the plain
Will the nose of a paper airplane affect flight?
Not so much the shape of the nose that affects the flight of a paper plane, but the weight. If the weight of the plane isn't distributed properly the angle of attack is too small or to large making the plane nose dive or stall. Make sure there is weight in the center of gravity of your model.
Does weight affect the paper airplane?
If it is too heavy, it will drop down. If it is too light, It is vulnerable to the slightest gust of wind. It is best to make it in-between(the average weight of a paper airplane)
Does the weight of paperclips effect the flight of a paper airplane?
yes. if you put it on one of the wings and try to fly it, it may tilt a little bit. it will affect the course you want it to take.
Does duct tape affect how a paper airplane fly?
duct tape will affect the flight if you use a certain amount of it because of the weight but if you only use a few pieces it shouldn't make too much of a difference
Does air temp affect the flight of a paper airplane?
Yes, because on hot days for instance, paper airplanes can catch thermals.
How does weight effect paper airplanes?
if you place a paper clip on your paper airplane, you may find it improves performance by equalizing the load (weight) and lift (what the wings generate)
