A riveting blimp battle consumed the sixth Make:NYC meeting. The challenge? Modify a stock RC blimp to pick up and move a load of quarters from the starting point to the landing site 6 feet away. Move the most weight, and you walk away a winner. Sound easy? Don’t tell that to the teams who competed!
