We already developed advanced curriculum called MarsTrek and DeepSeaTrek that are based on the activities of distant-exploration with autonomous robots for elementary and junior high students. These curriculums aim promoting student's problem solving abilities and the sense of engineering, especially focused on informatic education. Especially, DeepSeaTrek activities are designed with using the water pool and the robot which moves under the water, so it is very exciting for students actually but very hard to prepare the water pool every time or to maintain the robot to avoid rusting. There are two main objects of The DeepSeaTrek activities; 1) promoting the sense of engineering, including problem solving ability 2) learning basic phisics such as buoyancy, balance and 'action and reaction'. This paper shows the design and implementation of new educational Air-ship autonomous robot. And we also designed the curriculum aiming 1) and 2), called 'SkyTrek', which icluding the activity of building this new Air-ship robot itself.
