Safety is paramount in the design and construction of this
Airship. Its low-pressure hull construction prevents the airship
losing gas or bursting with multiple tears. If the hull is
pierced, for example, the airship will lose lift and float to
the ground. Each component of the Airship that has any weight
(batteries and engines) have tie down straps and safety straps
to prevent them dislodging and causing damage. Fins are
constructed from balsa reinforced foam and the hull is
constructed from non-tear Nylon and Polyurethane. The engines
and propellers are surrounded by a cowling to prevent propellers
from hitting any objects while in motion. The engine cowling
also prevents people from inadvertently injuring themselves when
starting and handling the Airships. The engines can be shut off
by the pilot via the radio control unit. paramount in the design
