The Nano Blimp is the ultimate accessory to turn any [helium filled balloon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-balloon-lamp) into an RC blimp.

As a fully grown man, I am not ashamed to admit that this looks like it would provide hours of entertainment. By simply attaching the tiny device with three propellers to a balloon, you suddenly have a [mini blimp](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiny-robot) that can be used at your leisure. The device can then be operated by a remote.

Can you imagine having this RC blimp gadget flying around at your next Superbowl party? It would be like you were really at the game. All you would need to do is stick a [Goodyear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-goodyear-blimp) logo on the side and maybe have live entertainment at half-time.
