Hi all, have a look at "Muscle Powered Blimps" by Robert J. Recks, available as preview at google books: http://books.google.com/books?id=J4sWHsiuSKMC ...
Good news. The show goes on. Philip, Gerhard and I will travel to Torino for introducing the RC Airship Regatta to the FAI. We will do demonstration flights on...

That actually looks like an RC hot air balloon that is just in the shape of a blimp, with no powered flight or control over direction. I've actually developed...
That blue one looks the new blimp "Leonardo" from the guys at beyond-gravity.com: http://www.beyond-gravity.com/leo.html I didn't even know that Gefa-Flug made...
Hi Kyle, the blue ship is the one from beyond-gravity.com indeed. The new envelope , a Gertler Shape (4154) with a slenderness ratio of 3.7 hat two gondolas,...
Hi Dominik, Thanks for posting the additional pictures. I had always wanted to see more details about the beyond-gravity thermal blimp but could not see much...
Oh, I forgot to mention that I have added a rudder to the lower fin on my blimp since those pictures were taken. Originally I thought just having two motors...
Hallo Michael, ich hatte vor einigen Jahren Kontakt zum Erbauer des Gefa-Modelles, das ist ihm aber wohl etwas über den Kopf gewachsen. Schön, daß es doch...
Hi Kyle, I tried a rudder in the fin as well. But the height adjustment of a unmanned thermal airship is not easy (and I know how to fly a real balloon). Due...
Hi Dominik, It seems even today most innovation in airships still comes from Germany! It is good to see other people building RC thermal blimps, maybe one day ...
... Dominik, off course I do. This could become a new RC Airship Regatta Class. Since hot air blimps somehow exceed 1 cbm boxvolume, and these are outdoor...
Hi Kyle, I hope there will be more RC thermal airships around. But I am in this project for some years (of course with many interuptions ) and have seen...
Hi Pack, Philip, Gerhard, Tina and I made the trip to Torino for the FAI WAG (Fédération Aéronautique Internationale World Air Games). Because we were so...
Hallo Luftschiffer, (english below) Die Lange Nacht der Lufschiffregatta und Wissenschaften ist nun schon über eine Woche her. Alle Luftschiff sind ordentlich...
Hallo Luftschiffer, ich hatte mit Phillip beim letzten Luftschiffrennen darüber geredet, daß man mal einen Dauer "flug" Wettbewerb veranstalten müßte. ...
Hallo Luftschiffler, die Idee eines Dauerflugs finde ich für das Publikum nicht interessant und glaube bezüglich des Zeitfaktors, dass das keine so gute Idee...
Hi all, Erich proposed a new way to evaluate the overall efficiency of an airship concept. Idea is to compare the 'transport power' and 'battery power'. It's a...
Hi all again, Lars argued a duration flight wouldn't be that interesting for spectators, and that pushing LiPo batteries to the limit could even be dangerous....
Hi all, Andreas uploaded the new version of the Series 58 profile generator, see: http://www.airshipworld.info/software/2009/08/generator-v06-available/ ...
Thanks for the announcement Johannes, I want to add one more thing. I am always looking for new Ideas to add to the generator and for bug reports. So please...
(English version see below) Hallo zusammen, am Donnerstag, 24.09.2009, 19 Uhr halte ich einen Vortrag im Zeppelin Museum in Friedrichshafen, hier die ...
Hallo everyone here, I am planning to build one airship and i have a little knowledge of the area but not much. I will be really thankful if some could help me...
