ABSTRACT:
A remote control lighter-than-air toy apparatus has an inflatable container having a predetermined shape, such as the shape of a dirigible, for holding a lighter-than-air gas. A gondola is removably attached to the inflatable container and has a shaft extending therethrough and rotably supported thereon. A reversible electric motor is attached to each end portion of the shaft passing through the gondola with each electric motor having a propeller attached thereto for rotation upon actuation of the electric motor. Each of the electric motors and propellers are fixedly attached to the shaft. A tether line is formed of a plurality of conductors, each connected at one end to one of the electric motors and connected at the other end to a control box having a plurality of controls thereon for remotely controlling each motor separately, so that a lighter than air toy can be remotely controlled with two propellers.
