True @Feanor

@doge It can take a few minutes to get the gyroscope working properly. But when it does, its really useful.

I have made quite a few of them and there fun to make but can be a huge pain to get working correctly

Gyros arnt that effective there nice to have and it almost requires one but there limited by the game to much power and it goes nuts @Feanor

Step 1: Build the airship hull and xml mod it or use overload to reduce the mass.
Step 2: For the gondola, this is how the gondola would look like on a rigid airship.
Step 3. Propulsion: In order to control the altitude, use jet engines distributed around the airship envelope to ensure that it remains stable. Or use a gyroscope.
Step 4: For forward and reverse thrust, Use a pusher propeller like this. To reverse the airship, change the propeller pitch control from auto to manual and invert the input for the pitch control.
Step 5: Turning. Put large vertical stabilisers in the tail section.

Just build a standard VTOL aircraft in the shape of a blimp, and then add a gyro to it. Easy peasy lemon squeezy!
