I'm still trying with 9V, eh :)
new ver is much bigger but according to steve's words
biger hovercraft should need less pressure
so maybe 9V will be enough

I think I'll have to make a much more flexible and long "skirt" like yours.
Mine was half short and more rigid, so that's why it leaks more air.

I'm also trying first to use plates instead of beams covered with plastic. I
never got to make a "draft" with ZNAP that would use the same "wire-frame"
covered with plastic technic we first talked about. Anyway, as soon as I saw
that standard plates would be "light" enough too, I jumped to it.

Thxs Pixel !!! Good job ! :)
my pleasure :) it's the effect of our talk here
so please fill free to keep a part of this development
(all memebers of thic topic!)

Now, 2nd stage ;) ...make it "go" forward/backward.

Can't wait to get home and make my version "fly" so I can go to the 2nd
stage of this project :)

3rd stage ? make it turn left/right while going forward/backward.

mc.
