If you attempt to make your own rigid airship, make it larger than 18" in diameter and longer than 48" the dimensions are what I used and it would barely fly with helium (dont use hydrogen as well you saw what happens!)

The failure mode of the burning vehicle was similar to that of the Hindenburg. The burning part loses buoyancy and it falls tail first, then the front combusts and the skeleton crashes to the ground.

"OH the humanity!" That was so cool. Ive been wanting to build an airship not blimp) for years and watching your success with this has gelled my resolve. And its like I figured would be the case,that helium doesnt give one enough lift per cm squared and that hydrogen does the trick. How about a 1/10th scale Hindenburg built authentically? It'd be pretty big and would require to be built in transport sections with all the gasbags (balloons?) filled and installed at the fling field. An internal rod the length of the ship with a sliding weight for adjusting the c of g in the air would probably help as would a functioning cruciform tail. And for anyone who thinks that it wouldn't work, the full sized zeppelins worked just fine (until they didnt). I think it will just be a question of getting the math right for the weight to gas pressure and of course keeping it as light as possible. Cant believe I hadn't seen this video until now. But I only just subscribed so there you go.

🔴 Why Islam not other religion 1-islam gives logical and simple idea for God - he is A perfect God - he is not a man nor a son of man nor an Idol or a trinity nor limited nor created - he is totally unique and to him belongs all the good qualities 2-Islam accepts all messengers of God -- about 124 0000 and in Islam, we love all the prophet of God and we can’t deny any of them - while in other religions such as Judaism for example - they reject Jesus and Mohammed -- and in Christianity they reject Muhammad ... but in Islam, we accept all . 3-in Islam, there is no mediator between you and God -- you can pray to God directly - there is no need for someone in between... 4- Islam is the Only religion that is Not named after a person or a tribe or a group, its name means submission to the One True God, if anyone anywhere at any time lived the life of submission to the true God alone , then he is a Muslim. 5- In Islam (worship) is not about mere rituals. it's a comprehensive term that includes any deed that pleases God. All good deeds are types of worship, smiling, being sincere at work, saying a nice word, and even treating one's spouse gently, all this is greatly rewarded by God. And in the opposite any deed that doesn't please God is a sin; talking bad about people is a sin, cheating, lying, hurting innocent people, harming the environment. 6-in Islam God is always forgiving - if you always repent (before death ) he will just accept you no matter how great sins you did >he forgive us out of his own grace - there is no price to be paid in order for him to forgive > so it's not like Christianity which says that God can't forgive except by blood of Jesus .. 7-Islam is a way of life - it organises each aspect in your life.. it has solutions and divine guidelines to problems in your life . 8--the sources of Islam also was collected and saved is also amazing -- it never happen to any book in history --- it's through the uncut chain of known narrators which date to prophet time ... besides the millions who memorised it from cover to cover since that time up till today - besides being documented in front of the prophet by known companions! 9-Islam prohibits blind following without knowledge and it invite us to use our brains to know truth, it is based on evidence and logic. The rational mind is the basis for religious accountability and responsibility. 10-the moral system of Islam is v high and perfect and thus the countries that apply Islamic laws in a proper way -- they have less moral crimes. 11-You won't lose Jesus if you accept Islam, but you will just correct your belief in him , In Islam, Jesus stands a good position in Islam as one of the messengers of God together with other messengers.. they were all special and they were all humans like us-- none of them must be worshiped -- we only worship God who sent them . we believe that Jesus was a noble Messenger of God but not divine,,,, we love Jesus and obey his true teachings and pray like him , fast like him , and a person won't lose Jesus if he accepts Islam -- but you will just correct his belief about him 12- Paradise in Islam is a real physical life for both Body and soul, you will go there , eating drinking marrying and meeting with prophets and having wonderful eternally unlike in other religions which they think its only spiritual life. 👉IN ISLAM THERE IS A PURE & CLEAR CONCEPTS OF GOD 🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃 God is One and Unique: God has no partners, no equals and no rivals. God has no father, mother, sons, daughters or wives. God alone is worthy of all worship. God is the All-Powerful: God has full authority and power over all things. Obedience to God does not increase His Power, nor does disobedience decrease His power. God is the Most High: There is nothing above or comparable to God. The attributes of God do not resemble that of His creation. No part of God is present in anyone or anything. God is Perfect: God does not have any human limitations, such as resting on the seventh day after He created the universe.

[@stainlesssteelfox1]

You only need to increase the size of the shell and envelope by 30% to get over double the volume (220%). Since the current materials should easily handle that, the mass of the envelope/gasbag only goes up by 170%. For an 80 gram airship, the new weight would be around 136g. But the lift goes from 110g to 240g even using pure helium. So the paylod would go from around 50g to 100g.

[@emanueliratliff4263]

Gotta love geometric rates of increase!

well the alternative is Helium, but we have an absolute finite quantity of it, it is very expensive (due to how little we have) and needed in a lot of things more important than airships (MRI machines for example), and we can't really make more. well, we can but making a mining expedition for helium-3 on the moon is more viable financially than making more helium on Earth

I just realized you could have used ‘balloon animal’ style balloons. That would drastically cut down on your dead space and placing them in the frame ‘hot dog style’ would give you more even lift across the structure… I’d love to see a remake!

[@trongvu8316]

Guys, Peter knows that he's doing the Hindenburg

[@Zomby_Woof]

I used to launch hydrogen blimps all the time when I was a teenager. Eithet your source was grossly impure, or you did not purge all the air out of your envelope, because that is definitely not how that volume of hydrogen ignites. And that inner liner was entirely unnecessary wright. Just hit the original fabric with hairspray to seal it, and fill with pure hydrogen, inputting H from the top, with a port on the bottom. If the botton port is made from a tube of dry cleanong bag material, it's light enough to tie off easily without any kimd of clamp required. Attach it to ax scale so you can monitor weight/lift as you fill so you know when thr air is completely purged. Hydrogen is trivial to generate from reactants from the grocery store. Use a metal trash can with a piece of pipe coming through the lid long enough to let thw gas cool a bit before it goes into the airbag. If all else fails, go bigger. Inverse square law is your friend here.

"Hey don't break my thing it's very fragile" **blows it up 3 minutes later**

[@howardlittman269]

The 1938 edition of "The Complete Model Aircraft Manual" by Edwin Hamilton has an article, starting on page 525, on building an "Army Blimp" This is actually a rubber powered rigid airship. The instructions include making a hydrogen generator and a water displacement pressure filler The model is only 36 inches long and flies with three ordinary toy balloons as gas cells. Your airship did exactly what the Hindenburg did, it burned, it didn't explode. Hydrogen has a very narrow range of fuel/air ( fuel/oxygen) ratios at which it will explode. It has to be almost stoichiometric. That's why it is so difficult to use as a fuel in piston engines. The standard fuel in piston engines is gasoline because it has such a wide range of wide range of fuel/air ratios at most temperatures that will explode. People with no experience working with it are afraid of hydrogen yet it is successfully handled when reasonable safety precautions are observed. Gasoline, a far more dangerous substance, is handled successfully by untrained complete idiots ignoring reasonable safety precautions every day.

[@jeffbenefiel2676]

I looked into modeling one of these, they're hard. Every cu/ft of atmosphere is about 28g of weight so you know how many cu/ft of displacement you need. A big problem is by the time you engineer large enough a space to lift your weight the amount sail area the airship presents makes it near impossible to fly in anything but becalmed winds.

[@fajile5109]

What if instead pf propellers you used hot air ballon thrusters and kites?

[@dafiltafish]

"let's go to hydrogen to get more lifting force, nothing could possibly go wrong."

[@dinhtrungche9619]

The square-cube law is actually working against small airships because the weight scales down only quadratically but lift (volume) scales cubically

[@krisneal7725]

Good job Pete 👍,, I still think that you should make some kind of solar powered Kraft that just keeps on flying. Height regulated with some kind of compas heading to keep it safe, and see if it travels around the Globe and comes back to you, or put contact details to see where it ends up. Kinda water proof so that it stays together if it ends up in the water, and whatever other precautions you can think of. Go on mate, YOU CAN DO IT !! 👍👍🇭🇲🇺🇸

The problem is lifting force from buoyancy scales exponentially with size so a bigger ship will be better, especially if using a heavy rigid hull.
