Building a Blimp
I finally got in contact with Blimp Guys!! This was a very big step in my process of building a blimp and my conversation did not disappoint. I was able to get some ideas of materials I could use to build the blimp that wouldn't be too expensive. They suggested I use a garbage bag filled with helium and fasten a spout, just to name a few. I was also told how to make the blimp level, you do this by attaching washers on to the blimp which will make it float evenly. I then got directed to this website www.rcguys.com, which has individual parts to help me assemble a blimp.
In the near feature I have plans to sketch a model of my blimp and determine what parts I need. I would like to see if I can find any parts without having to buy them. If there are a few that I need to buy then I can use the website above. I listed a picture of some of the parts that I could use from the website.
Mr. Joslin said to start looking for instructions on how to connect a DC Motor which is one of the things I am going to do next. Now that I have finally gotten in contact with Blimp Guys and received some valuable information, I feel a lot more confident about building this blimp.
This sounds really cool, will you be posting your design sketches?
