Note: depending on the wiring and the propeller design, the propeller might push the blimp in the opposite direction as the code intended. Ways to solve this problem include reversing the polarity wiring of the motor, use the oppsite-direction propeller of the one you have right now (if it is clockwise, use the counter-clockwise propeller instead), or change the code so that all BACKWARD motor calls are FORWARD and vice versa.
