If you fill it with helium, it will seem to hover in mid air. 🙂 Somebody did that on my school once, with this miniture baloon. That is how I remembered it.

Better not fill with helium, otherwise the balloon will be shot down 😉
The scale is a bit unusual (too big in 1:350?) but great project idea 👍

All parts printed. I need to separate them from the supports and then harden them in sunlight. It'll be a while as we are in a snowstorm right now.

I am from Arizona - what is that white stuff on the ground ?? Kidding - pretty cool idea. From what you posted I did not know it was that huge.

The crane story sounds a bit like a return of the red scare, doesn't it? 😉

Will you add the buses from picture 1 as a size comparison?

I'm pondering if I should paint the 40 solar panels a dark blue.

Łukasz Gliński
I wonder - how are you planning to display it? Hanging under the ceiling? 😉
8 March 2023, 21:01
Ben M
Yes. I put a loop on top so I can hang it from the ceiling!

... so the Chinese can spy your living room 🙂

People will be looking for the light switch for that!

Łukasz Gliński
It looks great, but John is right too - looks like a lamp w/fan 😄
Now wondering when we'll start seeing such lamps in shops 😄

Ben, watch out for jetfighters in the vicinity! There might be some collateral damage to you stylish living room!

Ben M
Oh… I would love a lamp with fan that looked like this! Thank you, everyone. I was a bit obsessed with the spy balloon and I was sad when they shot it down.

Bughunter now the Chinese government can be informed of everything I do, and I don't even need to install TikTok.
