PUSHPAJAN C asked Can u please make a balloon powered helicopter so I tried and failed. I have seen a toy in a shop that works like this so I would guess I just didnt make the components light enough. Maybe a much smaller version would work, maybe next time.\r<br>\r<br>If you have a question it is probably worth reading this video description first because the answer may already be here. To help you find my videos I made two search guides or or checkout my playlists page \r<br>\r<br>Main components\r<br>-\r<br>Balloon\r<br>Straws\r<br>Bottle top\r<br>\r<br>Main Tools\r<br>-\r<br>Hot Glue Gun\r<br>Scissors\r<br>\r<br>Filmed using FujiFilm FinePix S4800\r<br>Edited using Serif MoviePlus Starter Edition\r<br>\r<br>david vernon williamson has a great design that really works. Here is his comment and link.\r<br>One of the simplest ways to improve it is use a sausage-shaped balloon (Tesco) its got something to do with the balance as it spins round. also use aerofoil shaped wings & only three blades. full instructions at \r<br>His YouTube video of the working helicopter is here \r<br>\r<br>Benjamin Adams shared this link to the ual helicopter on amazon.com \r<br>I have also found it on the Amazon UK site \r<br>and this one that whistles too \r<br>and here is an eBay link \r<br>Here is one of Arvind Guptas videos showing the shop version \r<br>\r<br>Related playlists\r<br>Balloon Powered Helicopter \r<br>Failed Projects playlist \r<br>Balloon Power playlist \r<br>I have thousands of videos on YouTube covering a wide range of subjects. To find them follow my search guides or or see my playlists page \r<br>Generally my projects are for my grandchildren to enjoy. OK, I enjoy them too. If anybody else likes them, that is a bonus. I like to keep my work as simple and basic as possible so that it can be copied easily and improved by anybody who wants to try themselves. I recycle or repurpose items rather than buy new and when I do buy I like to keep it cheap.\r<br>
