Hovercraft, also known as air cushion vehicles (ACV) are known, amphibious vehicles, which move in a layer of compressed air. Because of their unique design, you can sail on any surface: water, earth, grass, snow and ice. As a result of its flexible nature, Hovercrafts have a great advantage in military applications, but are not just for the military. Many fans love them too, especially because it is easy to build and with a good set of plans you can build aHovercraft in one weekend.
Some hobbyists prefer building and racing radio Hovercraft, which are similar to the boats and toy helicopters are remote-controlled. But you have much more fun than a simple toy hovercraft fly around the small village pond. You can actually build a hovercraft for you, and then enter it, and take you for a ride. You can take your hovercraft for a nice pleasant cruise on the lake, or your children in the craft of racehelped them to build! If you can get even more involved in the construction and operation of hovercraft, there are clubs to join, and thus will be hobbyists and share building tips for getting the most out of your craft-speed race.
And I must say I'm a big klutz and even I managed to hurt these plans without me or anyone else to follow in the vicinity. A weekend for my sister, who happens to live near a lake, I performed a rare commodity Lowe and then I came tosister's doorstep with plywood stacked up in the car. Her husband, myself and my brother put the Hovercraft together in less than a day and then spent the early part of the evening fighting over who got to use it next, so I think next time we're going to try putting two more together so we can all race each other. Having done it once, I'm pretty sure now I could just build the next one myself. The plans are easy to follow and well-illustrated for even a hardware newbie like myself to follow. And they really are just an incredible amount of fun. I'm actually looking forward to winter so I can try it out on the ice.
