After my rather successful 1st Blimp/Zeppelin I built, I'm redoing it this time, with more features including guns, auto pilot, parachutes, a much for filled interior and heaps more I'll also be taking suggestions that I got from the thread I made and using them the thread was showcasing the earlier blimp/zeppelin I built thats only took about 6-7 hours the feedback I got said it was easy to control. so I'll be using the same control system of rockets controlled by a grab switch with a 3-way lever controlling a rocket pod (see below diagram) that turns round in the same sync that the arrow that shows direction the control pod, with rockets on it is facing. now... yeah... I've drooled on abit here. the picture is up now Zeppelin planing picture: http://a.imageshack.us/img827/98/zeppilinplaning.gif

okay folks currently I've gotten some of the main systems going, it doesn't fly yet and needs weight. also I need some ideas for a color scheme, ideas?

A subtle red for the actual blimp part is almost standard, and a gunmetal grey for the majority of the interior. Thats what everyone expects though, so...

Oh, your redoing your zeplin? Awesome! As for the scheme, I think what would really be cool is an option at the beginning to choose your style. Here are some ideas for different themes. 1. Jungle- a zeplin lost in the jungle covered in vines and flowers and must have been used a long time ago. The part your in is wood from the trees. Also, your gun is a gigantic harpoon. 2. Futuristic- Just because it's the future, doesn't mean they've abandoned zeplins. Actually there are much more and it has metal for where your in and lots of buttons plus you have a plasma gun. Then there could maybe be your classic design plus the one you and raiton discussed.

okay guys, I just hit a massive idea, on the bottom floor, its not very big. so what what I thought I'd do is have a peice cut out and its conected to a piston and a lever lowers it down so you can parachute off it, any other neat ideas you have please post them, every thing will be taken into account. sorry bout not having any pictures yet, coming really really soon.

Is there a water friendly exit? that will certainly open up a lot of possibilities. Lol you should put an emergency "Blow up the blimp out of boredom " Button.

Lol you should put an emergency "Blow up the blimp out of boredom " Button. ooo.... mmmm blow up the blimp.... -drools- maybe, but, what do you mean by water friendly exit? and no, if I think it is what you mean, the carriage or the "gondala" is made of wood, the "Blimp bit" or the "envelope" is made of card and peach floaty, thus meaning, it floats on water (although I haven't checked to see how well yet)

OMG I NEED THAT CAPTAIN COSTUME!!!!!!!!!!! also, i think he means, with the water exit thing, like so it can land on water? am i correct raitoningu?

at the moment, style is fine, so... sorry every one. any way! The LBPZX Airship is allmost finished.... all I need to do is think up a smart idea for general helpful stuff... uhh... yeah for helpfull stuff i mean: when you grab the steering wheel it gives you extra boost for the next few seconds (usefull for taking off/ pulling up hard) and when you push the button to deploy the really really cool parachutes, it emits some dark mater and floats exactly were it was for about 12 seconds. also, it has a mini tilt censor, you hardly notice it but it helps when 1st taking off as I find it keeps the Airship steady (you're best to take it off with the arrow at about 22.5 degrees to the right and it'll fly well) you know... after I wrote this post I reallise that: this is actualy very very close to finishing... allmost time guys hope you can all wait a lil longer (no blimps do not take very long to create, no longer that 1 week) well thanks for posting every one, and I hope you enjoyed reading my little secrets that no one knows about... next blimp I'm planing will have a radar, and alot of other neat things that I can't fit inside this one... cya'll soon
