Chipshop Styrofoam Tray Hovercraft

I had a takeaway fish & chip supper tonight and noticed the chips came in a small styrofoam tray so I thought I would make another hovercraft, just a simple one. Main components - Styrofoam tray from the chip shop Styrofoam cup Styrofoam plate NOT a fan motor from the USB laptop cooler 1.5v - 3v electric motor from vibrating toothbrush Fan blade from cheap toy 3.7 volt rechargeable battery from a camera Main Tools - Hot Glue Gun Craft knife Soldering iron Filmed using FujiFilm FinePix S4800 Edited using Serif MoviePlus Starter Edition As there are many comments about getting more power out of the USB laptop cooler fan here is my previous effort at a hovercraft with the fan where I manage to get lift by significantly overpowering it and removing the weight of the batteries /watch/7r8qLn2xdWCCSEdrIYLoz3BrSRPx2a5ALP=tsil?8kD0pheO947Oq I also get comments about putting hovercraft on water, if a hovercraft hovers on land then it will hover on water, in fact it will probably hover better on water because it is a better surface. Toy hovercraft often struggle over carpets or gravel or grass because the air cushion can escape through the porous surface, but water is airtight so the air cushion is maintained perfectly but the balance may be an issue. /watch/7r8qLn2xdWCCSEdrIYLoz3BrSRPx2a5ALP=tsil?ASAVs4BETX_Eq Hovercraft playlist /playlist/PLA5a2xPRSrB3zoLYIrdESCCWdx2nLq8r7 Mystery Kings RC Hovercraft /watch/gbIT9N6QkcTbcMTf1_5x85UU=tsil?EchVZd070e87T Hovercraft playlist /playlist/PLA5a2xPRSrB3zoLYIrdESCCWdx2nLq8r7 Interplay Hovercraft Kit /playlist/PLA5a2xPRSrB2QlSBlvZgR-ixk7IJ2zz9c Fast Lane Hover Glider playlist /playlist/PLA5a2xPRSrB1CJGS7JZgf0DbAmyKiUeCz Fuhai Jingpin CRS ST Hovercraft 27MHz /playlist/PLA5a2xPRSrB1fpQ_IGqIbscZNs1c_tII7 Quad Fan Hovercraft playlist /playlist/PLA5a2xPRSrB1ynqKhyKVIcl945NCbHZZE Wall climber to Hovercraft /playlist/PLA5a2xPRSrB1mP6kacNV5lDatVFtihHLg CD Hovercraft playlist /playlist/PLA5a2xPRSrB0RnxXc1sib_ErgXkWgWlS- My Channels GrandadIsAnOldMan https://bit.ly/2T3x6RX GrandadsOtherChannel https://bit.ly/2yW5uYb Put a rubber band on it https://bit.ly/2T3OF4j Number4 https://bit.ly/3cG4fuZ You can help keep my channel running with coffee and cakes at Patreon https://bit.ly/35XFasL If you don't like Patreon you use Kofi instead https://bit.ly/3dNusI9 Merchandise on RedBubble https://rdbl.co/2yJv56H Merchandise on Cotton Cart https://bit.ly/2xZymOP Merchandise on Teespring https://bit.ly/2Zby02T Twitter https://bit.ly/3fMUgFN FaceBook https://bit.ly/3csbruk Pinterest https://bit.ly/2WTuuXP Instagram https://bit.ly/2WPLa2F Thingiverse https://bit.ly/35WfSem Tinkercad https://bit.ly/2WUrM4q Oldest videos https://bit.ly/2Z4RBl1 Most Popular https://bit.ly/3cx0lUP Newest videos https://bit.ly/2T3TryJ Playlists https://bit.ly/3dI9mdV I have thousands of videos on YouTube, to find one try my search guides /watch/wgcHOoOSBecSH or /watch/kRYwkwgU4jZUw I am happy for you to show my content as part of your own projects or in public settings as long as you clearly credit GrandadIsAnOldMan.
