Default RE: Ridged Airships

Paul,

The one thing I miss about the rigids is building the frame....it was one of the most complex balsa projects that I have ever attempted, and I have built a few over the years....I found a set of plans, and completely re-designed the framework to add strength and save weight. With the clear mylar skin shrinked, it was pretty impressive.....[X(]
