Task 1
Material used - Iron wires and Xuan paper and Heavy-Lift Utility cargo Drone
Failed because we underestimated the drone's carrying capacity, neglecting the fact that wind force would increase the oscillation and weight of the house. Due to strong winds, both our drone and the house ended up damaged.
Material used - hydrogen balloons and lightweight wood.
The second try, we utilized hydrogen balloons with to lifting a lightweight wooden structure in a Wind-Resilient shape. However, the continuous rainfall during the plum rain season soaked the wood, adding weight to the ho
use, and we experienced another failure.
Material used - helium balloon and lightweight wood.
I did research and find that Helium has a higher lifting capacity due to its significantly lower density compared to air, and its inert chemical nature, helium is both safer and more stable than hydrogen. It has been commonly used to fill airships and advertising balloons.
Final Day
In the end, we designed a helium balloon in the shape of a cloud and crafted a small house weighing only 50 kilograms, using lightweight wooden materials.
We utilized approximately two hundred bottles of high-purity helium gas. Despite the ongoing rain that day, we promptly disassembled the bottom of the house on-site to reduce its weight.
Eventually, the house took flight. Due to various objective constraints such as aviation regulations, we attached the house to the ground using strings to prevent it from flying too high or too far, controlling its journey within the confines of the Land Of Wilderness Park.
