HoverCraft Project

 HoverCraft Project 
1. Propellers 2. Air 3. Fan 4. Flexible skirt

What is hovercraft?

Hovercraft is an air cushion vehicle capable of traveling on almost any surface such as land, water, mud, ice, and other surfaces easily. The project which we are discussing here runs using vacuum cleaner. It is easier to build as shown in the video given below and economical too.

 What's the use of this project?

Though it is easy to build a project, it is very useful and creates excitement in the mind of the audience about its working and concept. It would definitely help you to earn good marks.
