[MrJumpingmatt]

What material is the thing from you build in the first minutes?? Do you have a plan? The paper you show in the biginning, is this not a plan? Can you sent this to me?

[BRANDORC]

how did i miss this video, i'm really starting to dislike the "new" youtube and the fact that i'm getting notifications on videos i don't even care about and missing awesome ones like this

[imalwayswatchingu00]

I went into this thinking it would be shitty.

But woah, proved me wrong.

[LTF85199]

wow very nice

[DiehardRCaddicts]

@LTF85199 Thanks for the comment and watching!

[Allexxx96Reloaded]

you dont need 2 motors on it! the real ones have just one for thrust and for lift. the thrust is split in two

[elmardus]

@Allexxx96Reloaded Splitting thrust is not really handy to do in rc craft. 2 motors is better, because you can manage the power on those 2 seperate....

[DiehardRCaddicts]

@Allexxx96Reloaded You can make a hovercraft with only one motor and prop, but i wanted to have full control of teh amount of lift there was. With only one fan the lift is constantly changing. and if you stop you lose all lift. It was just a personal choice to make it the way I did. There are some cool real hovercrafts made both ways, some with just one fan and some with seperate as I have made. Thanks for your input!

[startazz]

That really does look the part already Paul ;-) can't wait to see that going some on land water or what ever mate i just want see it go LOL,thumbs up man.

[DiehardRCaddicts]

@startazz Thanks Ian! It turned out ok, but as mentioned it is my first try and I'm learning alot as I go.

[vfrvtec]

looking good.

[DiehardRCaddicts]

@vfrvtec Thanks!

[lachacancela]

plans for this???

[DiehardRCaddicts]

@lachacancela Thanks for the comment. No plans yet. I will make some plans after I get a hovercraft built that works pretty good. This is my first attempt, and I have already found was to improve on it. Please stay tuned though, i will make some sort of hovercraft plans in the future.

[petedaws]

Where's the CoG? Looks a little "tail heavy"...

[DiehardRCaddicts]

@petedaws Didn't really check the CoG. Just kind of made it up as I went. This is a learn as I go project. It is a bit tail heavy, i may go back to the drawing board and do a better job of balancing it. Thanks for watching.

[meakins355]

That's going to look real neat when the cover is added, good job man!.

Cheers.

[DiehardRCaddicts]

@meakins355 Thanks! It is kind of a work in progress, but came out to look ok.

[VAND4LL]

[DiehardRCaddicts]
