Airships were the most fascinating aircrafts, ever crossed the skies and forever will be (well, maybe one day Imperial Star Destroyers will be a bit cooler, but till then airships absolutely rule). So, why not build your own? Thanks to modern materials and electronics, RC-airships can be incredible fast and agile while consuming very low energy and they are really fun to fly. The [[Documentation]] will explain in fast and easy steps how to get the silent_runner airship running.

The silent_runner

Airships were the most fascinating aircraft, ever crossed the skies and forever will be (well, maybe one day Imperial Star Destroyers will be a bit cooler, but till then airships absolutely rule). So, why not build your own? Thanks to modern materials and electronics, RC-airships can be incredible fast and agile while consuming very low energy and they are really fun to fly. The Documentation will explain in fast and easy steps how to get the silent_runner airship running. For more details email us at info (a) windreiter.de or join the airship regatta mailinglist rc_airship_regatta@yahoogroups.com

The building instructions for the current iteration are found here: tutorial i4
