If you wanted to steer your hovercraft you could probably use a ductated fan to provide more thust on a turning platform to turn

Well, you could just buy a large intertube and seal the hole off. Then add some leaf blowers and BAM hovercraft!

you know i was thinking a inner tube at first, but we had thrown them away. besides that wouldnt be a true hovercraft, it was easy enough to tape some thick plastic to a piece of plywood with a hole in it.

a ducted fan that would proibaly be much more efficent than plywood rutters, good idea

EDIT-

well her was my plans but i guess i should change them to ducted fan, 24in propeller, ect
