introduction to hovercraft
one of the MHA membes has produced plan for a small single engine design craft only 600mm long by 300mm wide the plans are in a step by step format with written instructoins for every part of the model i am making one at the moment as i am waiting for a skirt to be made on one of my other models heres the progress so far after 2 and 1/2 days http://www.flickr.com/photos/19759955@N07/2408223128/ the model is very fast and as a result is very hard to take pictures of if you would like a copy of the plans they are £14.00 i think the best way is to send an email to me at [email protected] leave our email adress wiht me and i will pass it on to the designer this way its only me that will get flooded with emails
