It will fly better if you build it with construction paper.In my study I found that the paper airplane with greater mass (the construction paper) will fly farther. The weight doesn't have much at all to do with it. With more mass, the airplane has more potential energy. Potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, or speed. More potential energy means more kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is equal to lift, and lift is equal to a greater flight distance. I am doing a Science Fair project on this. I'm very sure that I know what I'm talking about.
But the construction paper will weigh it down so if it were me, then I would go with the computer paper. But other factors that also affect the flight of a paper airplane are; the way that you throw it, and how aerodynamic your design is, so keep this in mind.
