fix: helium! from party balloon store. not hydrogen [yet ;p]. the reason it's fun is i got to handle the helium and balloons and think about a little blimp :D it's so near to being doable, i usually think of wiring as so easy i might have some food soon and then try the wiring more after [the wounds on my cut hand have mostly clotted] > i've since taken the motor stuff out and it's spread around on floor. i took > the solar panel out to test power but it's just a heavy thing with a usb port > so should go back
