  • very nice job just finished mine , does it work on snow?

  • very very very Good job.... i have like my big hovercraft with skirt, but your is better. Your is from wood and It has a reverse!!!!!. ;-D See my videos.

  • what material should we use for the skirt

  • @TheSandeep315

    You need something light, very flexible and waterproof.

    The material that they use to make sails for boats is a good choice.

  • what material should use for the skirt

  • what if it runs low on power

  • @Hello3427956704

    To avoid sinking, when the airflow stops, i put pieces of styrofoam between the two decks. The best way to prevent low power problems is to use speed controls (ESC) with low battery sensor, but i didn't have one...

    Thank you for your comment.

  • Nice wave riding!

  • Nice job. How do you keep it from spinning around from the torque?

    And what tipe of fan are you using and what type of plastic?

  • Thank you! I took the motors out off broken toys, mine 3 years old sons have a lot off them. The funs diameter is 20cm. I m sorry but I dont have any other specifications about the motors or the funs The material for the hovercraft is balsa wood. I didnt use any plastic! As for the first part of your question Ive already answer it. Look the other comments.

  • Nice job. How do you keep it from spinning around from the torque?

  • Thanks for your kind comment! To reduce spinning I let the air out, not directly under the fan, but from four holes at the corners of the bottom deck. I hope that this will help you!

  • Could you explain this better for me mate? I don't understand how that stops the torque spin :P

  • The air under the fun is spinning very fast. So when I let the air out from a big hole, directly under the fun there is something like ground effect that makes the hovercraft spinning. If the air comes out without spinning thinks are much better. Thats why I let the air out from the four holes at the corners of the hovercraft. As the air travels towards these holes, stops spinning. (My English dont help me a lot, so I cant explain it better). Thanks for your interest.
