I was thinking of making a lego dirigible as part of an R&D project at my
school. We came to the conclusion that we would need a baloon about the
size of a small horse to get the neccesary equipment into the air. Though
I still think that it would be a great thing to do...

Hey! Anyone thought about making their rcx airborne? I figure we can do it
with helium(lots and lots of helium) or with a hot air ballon. You could set
up propellers and use a skid steering system. Yeah it would be reeeeeally
difficult but i think Dave could do it. You could pretty much use the same
principles for a submersible rcx, only water proofing would be way hard.
plus it wounldnt be pure lego. well what do you think?
