Well, at around this time last year I started my previous project, so I figured why not start another one now? This time, using many of the lessons that I learned in the previous years, I will attempt to build a hovercraft. This will be a prototype that will serve as a proof-of-concept vehicle. It will be about 20" in length and about 10" in width. I will power it with a toy-grade RC unit that I got out of the trash for now - if it works then I will sink more money into it and use hobby grade controls. I have a centrifugal fan from a toy vacuum cleaner that I hope to use as a lift fan and I still am not sure what I want to use for propulsion. I want to keep this project as cheap as possible and use the materials/hardware that I already have. If this project is successful then I will add another weird vehicle to my collection - if not then I will have another learning experience under my belt.

I am basing my design off of the one on this website: www.model-hovercraft.com/2000tdx/2000tdx.html
As always, I will try to set aside time to take plenty of pictures
Please feel free to comment, your input is how I learn new techniques and methods. And if you see any noob mistakes, please tell me, I can garantee that I am younger than <u>most</u> of the people on this forum.
