How does a hot air balloon work?

Heating the air inside the balloon makes the air inside the balloon lighter than the cooler air on the outside. This causes the balloon to float upwards.

The rotor blades act like wings and create lift.

The propellers spin and cause it to hover.

The helium causes the balloon to be lighter than the air so the hot air balloon floats. 

The shape of the balloon causes lower air pressure above the balloon.  Since the air around the balloon has higher pressure than above the balloon, the basket lifts.
