Product Description
Manufacturer's Description
'Wow, it's the biggest one I've ever seen!' Okay, so she's talking about your new Solar Airship, but you don't need to tell other people that. The Solar Airship is an incredible 8 metres long and looks remarkably like a giant burnt sausage. In fact, it looks just plain remarkable.
But if you're thinking, '8 metres long? I get out of puff blowing up a balloon!' don't panic. The Solar Airship needs no blowing or pumping up, because, as it's name suggests, it is 100% solar powered. All it needs is reasonable sunshine, and you can go from box to sky in as little as two minutes!
The airship is constructed from a high-density, lightweight matt black film. All you need to do is hold open the tube and walk along with it quickly, allowing it to fill with air. The film absorbs the heat and, because hot air rises, the ship rises too! It works on similar principles to a hot air balloon, only using natural heat instead of gas.
It can fly up to about 30,000 feet on a reasonable day! Watch people stare with amazement as you guide your giant burnt sausage through the sky!

Great fun but string too weak,

This review is from: Solar Powered Airship (Toy)
Had great fun with this but it does tear easily (easily repairable). The string is too weak. My string broke and the airship went flying off never to be seen again. Strongly suggest you use your own stronger string!!

Blown away,

= Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars = Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Solar Powered Airship (Toy)
Such an amazing balloon! It flies itself and is so easy to handle, much better than a kite, less strenuos. Watch everyone around you amazed at its simplicity. Careful though it can tear, but it is easily repaired and just as transportable. I would recommend it for hot summer days when the sun "heats" up the air inside the tube and watch it rise and fall as it dances majestically over everyones heads!
