| | Re: Just an idea for an prop for a hovercraft

| Some hoover crafts use a tunnel/prop design facing backwards and direct about 1/3-rd of the air downwards to create lift, the rest is used to push the craft forward (with rudders to steer). Perhaps this can be made with LEGO? The main benefit is (...) (22 years ago, 6-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic)

Thus no good as a propulsive device. The film used for the skirt (...) (21 years ago, 5-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic, FTX)
