The Ultra-Light Sport Balloon

Leandro Corradini, a balloon pilot and entrepreneur-- launched his startup FlyDoo, to make ballooning easier, manageable, and more fun. For this, he made several innovations in the balloon’s envelope, burner, and basket--and says his balloon system is the lightest on the market.
In the United States, his balloon would be a light sport aircraft, however in France, the balloon falls in the ultralight motor category,-- and for that --Corradini had to motorize his balloon with a motor and a propeller. As some early balloonists experimented with a motor and propeller, without any success, having them on the balloon is a revolutionary step.
