  • i think u need stronger thrust for it, it a little bit slow, but other than that, it's a great hovercraft

  • are there any sharks in there? How cute!

  • what is the skirt made of

    

  • That is a home made hovercraft if I ever saw one :)

    That main thrust fan needed to be ducted.

  • That is a home made hovercraft if I ever saw one :)

  • I build a hovercraft that was much simpler, based on a car innertube and lawnmower engine.

    This floats like any innertube.

    There is a wooden platform in the center that the engine and fan as well as the chair sits on.

    Very simple design that is very cheap if you scrounge.

  • well done :)

    This shows why Hovercrafts are not alowed on the public roads

  • @camdacat Any progress on your hovercraft?

  • @camdacat An air mattress is an excellent idea. That will provide a HUGE advantage as far and getting the skirt to take shape. Getting the proper shape for the skirt was a very difficult task. It would be fun to fool around with one of those double high air mattresses. It wouldn't be necessary, but may be fun to try out. It would probably help for going through the grass (something my hovercraft failed at).
