Myself and one of my friends are designing and building an R/C HoverCraft using parts laying around the garage. So far we are looking at a 3 X 2 Foot base and using a chainsaw motor as single motor driving two separate fan units. We are also going to be experimenting with vector thrust for directional travel.
To date we are in the design and planning phase, I will post a build build page here as we get closer to manufacturing the prototype.
A chainsaw motor! That’s going to be one noisy hovercraft!
The type of fans and the exhaust we are using are actually going to make this a pretty quiet one 🙂 It’s going to be really fun to test though. If it works we are going to build one for a single person to drive.
