Today, we drew designs and decided between these four designs:
- Helicopter – low capacity, lowest stability
- Single Blimp – highest stability
- Multi-Envelope Airship – easiest to control, highest stability
- Multi-Envelope Hybrid Airship – highest capacity, medium stability, medium control and maneuverability
Our final decision was to build an airship that would be stablized with two blimp envelopes. We performed some calculations, and figured that we would be able to lift at least a few hundred grams with the two high lift envelopes that we found on the Internet ($25 apiece!).
