LOL made you click.... Well, technically it is free as the files to make one yourself are on thingiverse! :D
Hey guys! Today I've got a Hovercraft! this thing is entirely 3D printed (the hull and frame) The design is a fairly simple one which can be printed in about 24hrs depending on your printer and settings, the pieces are no larger than 200mm X 200mm x 200mm so most pursia style printers should be able to fit the parts.
The parts are up here on Thingiverse - STL Files:

I freaking love hovercrafts. If you're printing with ABS, try gluing the parts together with ABS cement. I've had pretty good luck with it.

Have you heard of 3D printing Friction welding? It's when you put a piece of filament in your dremel and pull it towards you over a crack in your print or to stick things together, the filament melts and the spinning carves a channel in the print to fill with melted filament... Pretty cool if you ask me?

It wouldn't be hard to map the motor to an auxillary switch so you can just flick it on and the bag remains inflated so you can control speed/turning.

Awesome... I made one years ago out of Balsa and foam with a ripstop skirt.. Having a separate control for the lift motor is a must.. it works way better that way.. I used a Brushed motor for the lift motor hooked up to a relay that plugged into the receiver then I could just flip a switch if I got in trouble and it would drop to the ground.

For skirt material, try a $2-3 dacron stuff sack sold in walmart's backpacking isle. Most of the issues you're having seem to stem from your choice of skirt design. I'd recommend looking up "jetted skirt". That's the one I got the best performance out of back when I made an RC hovercraft. (I also tried a bag skirt, constrained bag skirt, and interlinked finger skirt.)

The idea way to set up the lift motor on one of these is with a radio that's got a fully proportional knob for a channel. I just moved into a Futaba 6J and its sixth channel is on such a knob, so I'd use Ch6 for the lift fan on mine. I'd probably also use a car ESC instead of a plane ESC to control the thrust fan, mostly, so I can get reverse out of it. Also, car ESCs are often already waterproofed right out of the box, which is seldom if ever the case with plane ESCs.

@Gasaraki 7 жыл бұрын

its probably been said but with the skirt if you pleat it with ducts around the edges to allow an air curtain your lift will be greater and more controlled. another variant is instead of one large vent in the middle of the belly move it forward one third of the hull to help with the thrust pitching the nose down into the water as you wont have as much lift under the thrust motor

@johnschoolfield9339 7 жыл бұрын

I'm wondering if an edf unit would work better for the lift fan. Also, setting the controls like a quadcopter. ABS and acetone welding works well if you can avoid warping. I haven't tried the plastic cement, but it sounds like a good idea. You might try printing the shell in vase mode and then printing a support skeleton to glue on underneath. Possibly rotate the whole propulsion unit instead of rudders. Lastly, good stuff. Keep up the good work.

Use it to glue 3dprinted planes. - Ethylacetate (less aggressive and much less toxic)

Hi Peter, I built my hovercraft out 1\2" pink foam, I used a 1 100kv w a 10" prop for hover and a 2 200kv w 6" ( park jet) for thrust. I put the hover motor on the gear switch and set it for around 35% and rudder on aeleron, works great but on water not as much, the skirt which is slightly different than yours but basicly the same collects water and is then bogged down. Full size overcome this problem by basically being a boat hull with the air vents placed at the top outside edgs so even if therss no power it floats with the vents above the water line. heres a link

@Bryghtblade917 6 жыл бұрын

Great model, always loved hovercrafts.Have seen full scale ones with what basically amount to ailerons in the drive motor ducts which deflect to lift the side of the craft which is on the outside of the turn.this gives a much more positive turn with less yaw slide. But really..... Fire works near vehicle fuel tanks? I know you like explosions in your vids but that could have been a little bit too much lol. Keep up the great work!

@elegante2785 7 жыл бұрын

@gilbertcruz2161 7 жыл бұрын

very cool, the only suggestion is to treat it like a boat n make a water tight box or maybe some kind of baffle under skirt to keep water from easily getting to electronics upon lifting off of throttle.
