3D Printed RC Hovercraft on SPEED!

Because of a very popular request to make a fully working 3D printed hovercraft. Using only a 3D printer, a plastic bag for a skirt and basic electronics such as brushless motor from drones. The 3D printed parts went together with a pop and then it was just a matter of figuring out the electronics. I thought I had a problem with the skirt being to thin and suggestible to tears, but I was very wrong, the skirt held up great! Even on the water, sand, ice and indoors driving like crazy didn't puncture the skirt.
This is the 3D printer I recommend: goo.gl/f6gTkb
*Here's the parts list: (I will update soon)

my single motor ducted build does it very well too, no 3D printing, just coroplast and a few tubes of CA glue..... and a pool noodle skirt! any all extra weight is an enemy, just like near anything RC.

@karlnowakowski7866 5 лет назад

You can put foam (polystyrene) in the skirt rim. That way if you loose power it still floats. I used to have a remote controlled hover craft as a kids that had this and it worked well.

@drrock5356 3 года назад

A hovercraft on water becomes a displacement vehicle. When it hovers on water with zero speed (aka stopped), it creates a ramp or hump of water around the skirt. To start moving at speed, it has to have enough power to accelerate up and over this displacement hump. That's why it had trouble "snapping" from one direction to another in 180 turns. If it pauses long enough, it sinks back into the displacement hump. The Reynolds number probably also scales against the performance of a small hovercraft. Regardless of this jibber jabber, this is another awesome video RCLO!!! Please keep them coming!

@pollyg562 5 лет назад

IM 49 and love your videos,and was interested in 3d printing but im not tech savy and dont have access to those that are, but darn it your enthusiasm got to me and i bought the Ender2 i was shocked to get zero instruction,and a iffy set up manual, but i did it,and yes it took 5 days of tinkering but i got my first print,and it was perfect, im sure you remember that feeling,i was more than a little surprised how euphoric the feeling was to see that i made this,so im now hard core studying the web sites that let you design your own stuff,its super complicated but i tell myself millions of others have done it ,and you can too, thanks for the enthusiasm Simon keep up the great work

@bardenegri21 5 лет назад

I had a toy hovercraft when I was little. It had a polystyrene part inside the skirt that had two functions: it reduced the volume of air inside the skirt making it easier to inflate, and second it helped keep it afloat if it died in a lake. I still find it ingenious. Yours turned out even nicer than my toy, and that was injection moulded. Great job

Came across your channel last week while researching 3d printers....Got myself an Enders 3D Pro yesterday now putting it together.My grandson will love that hovercraft hopefully when I learn how to 3d print,also like you we all have rc cars and I saw you printing a drive cog to replace the one you stripped and thats what made me decide to buy a 3d printer as I cant find online a replacement will try like you to print a new one so big Thank you for all your effort and time you put in to make vids like these for complete novices like me to learn from,will be now going back yo the beginning and watch all your vids.

@lkcmgn 2 года назад

coolest thing I ever see

@b.w.oostdam8875 5 лет назад

Some 30 years ago I did the same in wood and it was just as fast although I had to use NiMH and brushed motors. One thing I think you should look into is how the skirt of a real and larger hovercraft is made (like the old Canal hovercrafts). I think it could use a huge performance gain in float-hight. Also using a propeller to fill te skirt, is something I will probably never understand. A centrifugal airblade is so much more efficient and needs a much much smaller inlet. Now the inlet also serves as an outlet with an enormous amount of efficiency loss.
