Miniature Blimp Remote Control Airship Very Cool RC Toy

This video footage is of a RC blimp that we use for getting peoples attention at local events. The first time I saw this blimp, I thought it was a lot larger and maybe even full size. It wasn't till I got close that I realized it is approximately 30' and controlled remotely.

I'll bet that flying a gas blimp of this size is interesting- the longer the flight, the more bouyant it is! Does it offer much longer flights than electric?

[SteveHMcIntosh]

@WheelDweller It runs as long as you have gas in it, it sounds like flying chainsaws lol

Whoa! You got a 512 area code on the side! That's in my vicinity! I'm in Waco, is this blimp housed in the Austin or central Texas area? I'd love to see it, and buy one, too. Is there anyone you know of working on, flying, or considering a rigid, zeppelin-type r/c model? Or any you know that have ever been done? I'm considering this venture to scratch my lifelong enthusiast zeppelin itch.

Is this a one-off or homemade blimp, or is it commercially available, or just plain buyable anywhere at any price? I am a beginner r/c plane fanatic, also a commercial/instrument rated fixed wing & free balloon pilot with a long-time fascination for dirigibles. I am considering a handmade zeppelin, r/c of course, not full-size. If I had hundreds of millions at my disposal, I'd start thinking about a Graf Zeppelin. I'd pilot it, of course.
