@mrripply1111111111 There is a lot of plans for skirts in the web, browse on google. When engine is off, hovercaft floats as any other boat. It is impossible to sink it.
you can in no way compare this to a classic bob windt universal hovercraft due to the fact this machine will never be on the same level. for real hover machines you need to build it your self. and you cant beat chris or bill. see you at worlds
So tell me, If I were to dis obey some vehicle or aquatic vessel law or regulation while on one of these what would they consider it? its not a boat nor a car its like in a class of its own. Also cops probably could not catch ya if u made a swamp getaway into the foggy abiss. true getaway vehicle right here
Hovercraft is a boat, but also amphibian... and cops always find a way to get the people who escape :), I would not recomand you escaping with hovercraft :), escape would be sucessfull, but only temporary...
You can not compare BUFO to hover pod - howpod, it is just like you would compare day to night, BUFO is ofcourse day :)... Price of BUFO is about same as prices of other hovercrafts you find in your country + transport from Europe
Man that looks like alot of fun! My brother and I in highschool made a real frankensten version of a hovercraft at a competition call Odessy of the Mind for Gifted Education. We didnt take it on water just on a gym floor but it was still really fun!
keep on good work... buying any leisure toy is not considered as investment, but throwing money away in exchange for fun and satisfaction you get back :).
Here how thinkgs stand... some people like it, some don't, some people want it, some don't, some people can afford it, some people don't, usually those who can't afford it, don't like it... that's how is world today :), with all the things.
One thing is for sure at BUFO, you get what you pay for.
I cant afford it. but i like it..... you should make a blubbercraft after a walrus... that would be awesome it could be for the fatties! hahaha oh i want royalties for that one! hahahah
Mate I am jealous, my hovercraft goes about 70km/h down the beach, but doesnt perform anything like yours. Not sure how I can get more lift out of mine. Love your work.
that is hard to say... when I do not know the weight, size of hovercraft, duct size... etc... Sent me info with pictures at my e mail at info(at)bufocraft(dot)net and I will see what I can do.
For demo ride, mail us, it is not a problem, we have one craft ready all the time, and yes... we manufacture BUFO for people and sell BUFO to people not to aliens :))
a turbine engine would respond faster,no friction like an airplane and no ground friction at take off,you would just feel instance speed,unlike airplanes at takeoff wich a big part of the energie is used to push the total weight,but this
hehe no energie just the turbine weight.of cours,you would need to protect the skirt,with hyerodinamic shape fabric,like plastic,metal,aluminum etc.,to cancel friction on the skirt.please respond to my idea *madhovercraft* this baby could do more than 1000mph.
Maybe looks so, but have in mind that I have over 100 kg, and almoast 2 meters in height, and hover is only 2m wide, and 3m long, + I still do not have enough of hovercraft experience... + this was my first ride of BUFO ever...
If I will ever flipped BUFO, belive me you will see video on youtube :)
