Radio-controlled hovercraft

Radio controlled (RC) hovercrafts are model vehicles capable of moving over land and water using a cushion of air. The cushion of air is contained by an flexible airtight skirt. Several designs exist. Some models use two motors for steering and thrust, while others use one motor and a rudder. The skirt is inflated by an air pump, normally using a propeller.

Rc hovercrafts are capable of moving over almost all smooth surfaces. If the surface is too rough the hovercraft will loose pressure and the skirt will deflate.
