Introduction

Category 2

Not wanting to be left out of an ED challenge but way out of my depth on a subject / flight model i have 0 experience in... I decided a small (ish) simple exploratory craft in a Steam Punk style would be a nice change.

Using the premise that the craft can utilise the oxygen and moisture in the air / clouds through the two scoops on the side of the engine nacelle to keep the storage tank topped up, steam is then used to power the crafts control thrusters etc.

Controls

VTOL up controls bouyancy, higher up the bar it goes the more lift is provided
Yaw / pitch to change heading / attitude
Throttle to go forward
LandingGear button to retract the landing struts

Note it handles more like a space craft than a blimp, you add lofts of left turn and you will need to counter it with right hand thrust when you reach the desired direction (no doubt some funky shizzle could have fixed this but thats waaay out of my league)

General

Sorry ED i ended up under the 500 part limit, feel free to disqualify if needed. I did originally have 2 of the engines but i wasnt happy with the looks, keeping parts under 1000 is usually my problem =)
