That tube is a skirt, it's meant to accommodate the uneven surface below so that the hovercraft can work on land and water. Those fans cut off those tubes deflate.

Directional control is all done by throttle?

RocKITEman _ 2001 yes and leaning if i’m correct

77gravity post a video of your hovercraft

77gravity 了

What price?

Indeed!

I think if you put a machine gun on it it could be used in war for special ops.

Are you can give me a way or material to make this Hover

it makes it tougher when you can’t just stop and turn

Bought.. Brazil, South America look on line under HOVERY.

Hi, Yes ... differential thrust from between each motor. Alloy bars and tubes.

ok tshank

This is pretty cool

At the beggining of the movie, She fill up a buoyancy layer with a small blower. By the screw caps , this layer seems to be tight and so this volume ensures the buoyancy in any condition, either hovering by the thrusters or not.

I don't think so. At the begining of the video she inflated it with a hair dryer type of inflater.

@ fpvrcstuff - yes it looks a bit like that, but I think it's a heavier PVC-coated material similar to what we used on our F1 hovercraft in the early '80s. It was made by ICI, iirc, but I don't recall the name. It wore very well on a serious (100 mph +) machine.

É produto brasileiro!

Matthew Ford Matthew Ford I think you're making the same mistake Ivan did. It's not lean to steer, but lean to stabilize - you don't want the leading edge to plow on these. Steering looks like it's by moving the joystick side-to-side, so the two throttle cables are pulled different amounts. Ivan nearly plowed in when he came ashore at 7:45.

Moving your body just makes the effect bigger. Its steering to make one fan blow harder then the other. What you can see at 4:11. Bothe throttle cables are connected to the same "joystick" put it straight forward you go forward. Push it forward and a little left then the right side motor gets more throttle. So you go left. EZ as that.

Close - the split thrust will rotate the craft, but because you're floating on air there's no real "forward"; you have to over-rotate and use the thrusters to change course. Natalia seemed to understand that leaning needs to be opposite the direction of travel, to balance the hovercraft and avoid the skirt rolling underneath due to friction or contact with obstacles. Ivan was leaning the direction he wanted to go to try to force the hovercraft around & he nearly pays for that error when he comes ashore. I get the impression Natalia may have plowed in at some point before this. There's no teacher like failure!

Matthew Ford most small SEVs or Hovercraft do require that you lean and shift weight to help skirt handle side slip, etc. also, I believe that each motor has its own throttle and they are stearing with the differential between RPMS. Very creative design. Fun for hobbyist but not practical from cross country / extended overwater flight.

If you are in New Zealand or Australia, I can supply one. The cost will depend on the option you chose - buy with the engines or without. You can buy the engines yourself and install using instruction manual.

Thanks

nignat100 can you supply plans?

Within the skirt are four inflatable tubes which are inflated when assembly takes place and provides adequate buoyancy. NO Sinking with motors stopped on water. watch video of assembly to see inflation of internal tubes with 12volt blower connected to car socket. OK, Thanks for your comment.

That's what i said. read my comment above.
