Hover crafts?

[Moondust1950]

Any one got a R/c hover Craft? NOT NITRO!

I have a taiyo R/c Typhoon T-3 hover craft.

I have just used it for the first time in about 2 years since it went into the loft. Since then we have had Tiles put down in the hallway and it is so fun and FAST. if i had enough room i could probally get 30 MPH!!! out of it.

I will try and get some pictures tomorrow and a vid maybe.

That taiyo one is cool but the skirt always seems to fold under it when it comes near a sidewalk crack.

Mine doesn't seem to do that. When i drive it on tiles there are gap's and when i drift it sideways it doesn't fold over BUT it sure is fast.

Built my own, never did finish it though. It would hover, I just never put a drive prop in it. Then I stuck my finger in the lift prop, I put it away after that.

had a tyco one way back when. Used in a gym a couple times. Got about 1/2 way across, put it in reverse, still would slam into the wall, cracked it a couple times. Defiinitly went really quick. Got rid of it after breaking both fans off and the bag dried out, had it at least 6 years though.

yeah reverse isn't the tyco's strong suit. mine wouldn't even reverse unless it was on water

Mine seem to go back as good as it goes forward but when i go backwards my batterys dies quicker. It drift's pretty good though.
