Title: griffon 2000 hovercraft ideas
Post by: vamsireddy on May 13, 2012, 10:26:08 PM
I am planning to build a mark's model griffon 2000 hovercraft. I got the whole body plans and I need help deciding the electronic parts.
What motor should I use?
I plan to use two motors.. one to power the lift propeller and one to power the thrust propeller. Size 500/600 motors are suggested in the plans but I want to know if using a brushless motor will be better?and if yes how do I implement the brushless motor?

Awaiting a reply!

It did help sir. In fact I started this project after reading about your hovercraft!
I plan to use balsa wood and plywood to make the hovercraft instead of coroplast sir..so should I use a different motor since the weight of my project will increase?
I was also wondering if you can provide me with a detailed part list and a circuit diagram/layout diagram for the electronics part. Would be a great help!

I too want to make an RC hovercraft, but not getting the design. I found griffon 2000tdx little bit smaller. Can anyone help me with a little bigger one. If no, can anyone help me with the plan of griffon 2000 1/10 scale model?
