how about using the Williams F1 "shells"? they work(on hovercrafts, anyway.)
And as for a motor,how about the 8472's built in 4.5v motor+battery box? It

Then you could have wing mounted propellers.

8461 or 8468 both have lots of axles.

P.S, while we're on the subject of wind (sniff...), how about two fans on a
hovercraft? And can anyone send me plans of how they put the plastic on?
