Very nice craft and the lift fans make a nice sound. i would like to see how the skirt attaches underneath. Or just a pic of the botoom would do.

i have got some pics of the craft underneth the two bags at the back give better flexability over rough ground and the bit in the middle is a dummy keel the normal keel would go rugh along the lenght of the model but being such a small model it would drag the top of the skirt is held on with venture tape and the bottom is held on wiht double sided tape and duck tape any questions please ask

[hover dude]

Nice work. . . I am glad i am not the only one who uses duck tape to fasten skirts.

Yep - definitely a male hovercraft. Better get him "fixed" or you'll have a lot of baby hovercraft running amok.

I figure an upate is required i have tried the craft out on water and she is too heavy for the size of the modle and as a result will not get over the hump no pun intended so she is in the cupboard at the moment until i decide what to do what her
