I had built an Hovercraft for IIT sp4mm3r 2006. It was a near-ranker one. It sas swift on all terrains and fastest of all. Only thig's that, my direction motor got burnt in semis because of bad waterproofing. So don't forget waterproofing the motors well.

I used Coroplast for it's body. I used thermocol only to support spacers. Spacers were made using aluminium sheets.
Obviously used good quality, wrinkle free poly-bags for the skirt.

Have you searched this forum or Youtube for 'Hovercraft', 'Scratchbuilt Hovercraft', 'LCAC' or 'Griffon'?  ;)
