- Hey guys! Sorry this one took so long, it turns out making build videos sucks! :D
this is the build for the 3D printed hovercraft thing I made in a previous video here: • FREE 3D printed RC hov...
The STL files are located here for the hovercraft:
www.thingiverse.com/thing:2108890
This hover craft is made of PLA plastic, you guys may opt to try and use other plastics too! ABS would be one I would be interested in trying when I construct a heated build chamber
Things that you'll need are:
Motors: goo.gl/VGQe93
battery: goo.gl/0yyBZ1
servos: goo.gl/VvyRR2
ESC: goo.gl/B0sQXS
Also some various plugs, servo extension leads, and misc hardware should be nice to have as well!

sorry for the delay in the video guys! :p
however next weeks video will be much cooler! You'll want to stick around for that one!
+PeterSripol did you miss my comment last video? I have a hovercraft design prototype (1/8 scale for a 2 seat full size) I really think you'll want to disect it. it's only cardboard and mice got to it but... in waterproof foam board the double hull perimeter+skirt will float unpowered, tons more stability too. message me I'll send it to ya (local post office general delivery is good enuf). it'd be really cool for a good plan that doesn't leave out the non 3D printer folks.
PeterSripol I don't know if you have enough money for theses projects so there's an app called Tad that I can watch ads that pay up to 15x more than TH-cam does .yea I know. it's not a scam just download the app make an account then make 500$ a year or something like that I would totally support you OK please make a tad account thanks and keep up the great vids!
I'm subbed bu t my subs are private. "BWX" would be cool to see on your workbench!
You should make a electric longboard and also a electricity generating water wheel using that creek you drove the hovercraft on
PeterSripol can you subscribe to me plz
The hell with the build, I like the end of the video part peter. Great job on the hovercraft!
I wish there would be more youtubers like you. Way to go.
Nice vid Peter... I learned something today when you showed the v-bend on the servo linkage. Coolio!
Awesome, I have been looking forward to this:)
always a good day when peter uploads :)
b-but theres no fireworks in this one?
LeonidasGFX Right
LeonidasGFX Always a good day
true
It makes Saturday that much better
a lot of slapping in this video, I love it!
great build Peter ;)
Ramy 😍😍😍
I love your videos Peter, keep em coming
Best outtros on TH-cam
Thank you for showing me how to make this my bro will be proud
Your a great inspiration for people with 3D printers
Dude i gotta hand it to u, youre pretty darn creative
well now i know what ill be 3d printing awesome video man really awesome
Impressed at how you sand your propeller
Dunno why but seeing the hull construction made me think of the typhoon class ballistic sub "red October."
You should build one dude. Thanks for sharing.
I know you designed a lot of planes, that why I want to ask for a tutorial on designing aircraft.
What are the important ratios? (Drag/Lift, Lift/Mass, Wingspan/Fuselage length, Wing area/Stabilizer area & so on)
where are aerodynamics important?
How to construct a high/low lift/drag wing out of foam?
What angle of attack should your wing have?
These are some questions I ask myself, as I am designing my first RC plane.
A tutorial from your side would be awesome!
Keep up the great work :D
I just subscribed and the only reason why was your outro--I have never seen such an awesome outro!
Friction welding with a rotary tool and some PLA filament works great for PLA printed parts. Tougher than CA glue.
Good job mate!
Great video man, keep up the great work.
Noticed the BFL on the printer! Cool!
nice project as always, i might get a 3d printer soon it seems fun. I made a larger hovercraft out of thin plywood, uses a lot of power because it is pretty heavy, using the lift motor on a seperate channel is pretty good once you get used to it. It runs on a 3300mah 4 cell. both the lift motor and thrust motor use 6 bladed props, 3 2 blade props put on one shaft.
Cool! thats an awesome way to make 6 bladers! You should post a video!
Sure i might do that.
Another really cool build Peter
Definitely one of your better build videos!
YESS cant wait to watch you've inspired me to build a airbout thanks for uploading!!!!!!!!
awesome shortcut, a cheap styrofoam nylon cloth covered boogie board is SO epoxy resin ready for 3 coats. just needs motor stand (shelf bracket!), rudders, and radio gear. makes a really great (and fast!) simple build air boat. fun on water or on grass, not a hovercraft but still really fun!
One idea for improvement could involve using several separated lift bags instead of a single one. Might help it handle different terrains.
Gonna have to add this one to my list of projects.
sectional skirting is a great way to go with the full size hovercraft, you're only repairing or replacing a segment when (not it!) they get damaged. I studied a LOT of hovercraft designs over a couple years time to develop an efficiency minded 1-2 seater (not built yet darnit).
You should try friction welding Pla prints with a drill/dremel and Pla filament.
3D printer, ice cream stick, awesome. I like that.
Indonesian subscriber,
Looks like if you moved the lift nacel and the canopy/electronics mounting about an inch back it would be better balanced and you'd likely fix the nose diving and I'm betting the skirt would last longer. Moving the center opening forward or just starting it further forward would probably have the same effect.
Glad to see the build video! Lol :-) I'm Printing stuff rite now!
I built a hovercraft from a cheap tiny drone and using some 3rd party firmware i've been able to utilize the gyro to maintain the hover, its more fun than it sounds but if you get a chance check out tiny whoovers, and the firmware whooverware based on silverware for whoops and cheap whoop flight controllers.
I love these videos so much
This guy deserves atleast 1 mill subs
Hey Peter. Thanks for the build video, very clear and helpful. One question though, in the end of the video when you set the lift fan to your elevator channel. How did you overcome the fact that the stick is sprung at center, how did you make it so the motor only spooled up at the top half of the stick range. Thanks man, love the videos keep them coming
You can also use baking paper as an gluing surface. i never had something stick to that.
I knew I was forgetting something! yes that stuff works amazing!
I am glad that i am subbed to this channel
Cool project, nice!
Nice vid. You should do a studio tour for one of your videos.
Genius work! Engineering career sealed. 👍😁 But why do you keep throwing all your parts around the table after talking about them? Brilliant build. 😎
good job again. like to see a bike innertube or somthing rubber for the skirt but otherwise great hovercraft.
Like this style of video.
Nice build.
your outro is so dope i subbed just for it...
WOW great channel mate!
"and heat it up to about 1000°" i'm dying xD
Hey Peter, why don't you run the thrust motor and the lift motor on a different channel on your radio? it would be a lot smoother and may improve your performance on water.
Make it fly! Better yet, make a WIG vehicle :)
its on the to build list! :D
I would've plugged the hover control into the throttle pins of the receiver and the forward thrust into the elevator pins. Allowing for separate hover and forward propulsion controls.
That's what I didi in the end! :D works great too!
Love you videos peter!👍
I thought it was so cool btw new sub
I was thinking tying lift throttle to S1 dial since once going it shouldn't need to change much. But I can cut it down or up and not have to disarm
Should have done my Steel design plates. This is way too awesome to skip man
love the ending
Hi Petersripol you’re awesome 😎
Hi Peter, Awesome build. What type of 3D printer are you using? Keep up the great videos.
Its a lulzbot taz 6! I put a link in the description!
I see you used cyano-acrylate glue on your nacelles - I don't know if you are aware, but c/a glue is denatured by contact with water, which is why they tell you not to mend tea/coffee cup handles with it. Can the plastic you use be cemented with something like 'Plastic Weld' or 'Mek-Pak'? These will cement Butyrate, ABS, and Polystyrene very strongly, with the join being as strong as the surrounding plastic. I mention this, as years ago, I made a boat to sit in a water butt so that when it froze, I could remove the model, and lift the ice out using the hole the boat had made. I used Superglue. Result? The boat fell apart and sank, meaning that the water froze, and the resulting ice split the waterbutt.
Good idea
bonus points for use of "waterbutt."
interesting! huh, didint know that about CA, The hovercraft is PLA but I guess I'll have to do more research about it! The good thing is though it only spends just a few minutes on water, hopefully its not enough to cause the joints to weaken and fail!
Kool making ure own style of toys in ure own home!
I hate that my TH-cam recommends so much flitetest videos when I only watch your videos
I realize my comment is 2 years late. But I love how you edited this video!
Do you teach how to build stuff or have a website where I can learn? I'm in school right now learning about electrical components resistors, diodes and soldering... it would be great to learn from you before I get to my senior project. Would greatly appreciate it!! :)
Like anyone would build this at home... That's why I watch your Videos!
lets "simply" say this is a good video
hahaha, I have my problem words. :D
Peter, do you think you could design quieter drone? I know that sports like golf would use drones to do live broadcasts if they weren't so annoyingly loud
Wow how did you make that key turn bomb
Good video!
Increasing the front section of the skirt might make land to water transitions better.
Too bad I don't have a 3D printer, yet.
yep! thats an excellent point! I tried another skirt like that and it helps a bit too!
I find it so amazing that these days if a smart creator like you says oh I wonder if anybody else wants to know how to make this you can share with dumb people like me and now I can make it
real cool id build one if i had a 3d printer
I hope he takes me up on my offer to send him my (eek!) cardboard 1/8 scale real hovercraft prototype. it'd be a really good one in waterproof foam board, could also be regular foam board but wrapped in vinyl shelf paper.
could you make a ship with weapon. keep up the good work peter.
so much better then FT. feels "grass roots"
at 3:50 you can hear that M83 Oblivion soundtrack in the backround
Great, you show this just after i finish mine...
7:19 could I use small metal slabs to support the hull without weighing it down too much?
why not using one of the potentiometer for the hannel for keeping the bag full of air?
Nice video.
Can u do a "How to build a basic Airplane" tutorial ? It would be very cool.
Made one on anet a8
Great
nice work..
I request you to do a video on propeller size for brushless motors(like a range of propeller size for a given motor of some specific kv) for people like me who are trying to make an aeroplane from scratch without any experience.
Peace ✌
FliteTest's site is pretty good with their foam board planes motor and prop size recommendations, for many sizes/types of aircraft free plans they offer. you can download and print the plans, trace them onto foam board, cut+fold+glue and have a success gaining more experience. it will really be worth it!
thank you model nutty
Vaibhav you're very welcome. Peter worked with FliteTest a good while and their dot-com site is really such an excellent resource for us hobby guys! you can build from a couple sheets foam board, one dollar a sheet from a dollar store, transfer printed out plans with carbon paper is a good method. after a few builds and looking at many plans, power recommendations, wings (several types) and the aircraft's center of gravity, you'll learn a whole lot about how to go ahead with more building of your own designs. hope to see some great originals someday too!
model nutty thank you so much
just saw some planes made with magnus effect i know you can do it.
oooh cool
Hey Peter, I would recommend that you make a site, build these and sell them, they could help you make a extra buck or two!
Make a electric longboard and a electricity generating water wheel
Drew Roth he already did an electric longboard thing. just with a toy van thing.
after placing holes in the skirt for water capability, does the hovercraft lose or keep its ability to drive on land?
What was the base size of your 3D printer and could you try to make a hoverbike?
High quality content as useal, :D
thanks man!
*No paper clips were harmed in the making of this video*
this video is cool
Awesome!!
can you make a video about your 3D printer?
i want to know about it...
Cool!
what about improvising a bike tire inner tube for the skirt
You should make the red switch on the top to turn on the Controller
Made a prop for it in thingiverse madRCmodels
SATISFYING!!!!!!!
Where did you get your radio, receiver, motors etc.???
can you modify a toy boat to were it can fly and drive on water next time. ps good job on the vids
3D printed osprey!
will the torque of the motor spins the hovercraft?
