Dear all,

I am proud to present my last creation; "predator" Zenoah Gas powered RC Racing Model Hovercraft at 1/4 scale.
Hull made of Carbon/Kevlar and engine G260RC.
As usual, featuring na animatronic pilot figure.
It was presented in a public event at Braga/Portugal, this last Sunday (24 Sep 2017) at an RC Boat Meeting.
Hope you like it, best regards,

No need to translate the entire article on this National Newspaper , just translating the comment on the article photo:

"Hovercraft (in the photo) captivated the attentions in the Parque da Ponte lake."

It's really cool, I love it!

But these days, noise complaints and environmental restrictions at public parks and ponds would make it difficult to run this engine powered model. Maybe an electric motor version could be made also?

Kmot,

Similar but electric, I built all the ones you can see here (and each of them has an individual topic here in the fórum…) , and, all of them are my Hovercraft Fleet during this year 2018.

"Predator" is just the top of my 27 years developing Real Racing Hovercraft but, smaller (1/4 scale) than the others…

In some events and meetings, Predator stays at home.

Best regards,
Carlos
