Build a working hovercraft with the MINDSETS kit. Discover the hovercraft principle using A3 card and a self-seal bag. Assembly & 2x AA req.
Discover the fascinating 'hovercraft principle' pioneered by British radio engineer Christopher Cockerell in the 1950s with the MINDSETS Motorised Hovercraft Kit. Cockerell's original experiments utilised an electric blower and two tin cans to demonstrate his revolutionary jet system, and this clever motorised kit allows you to explore the very same scientific concepts right at home.
By combining a simple sheet of A3 card and a self-seal bag with the motorised components, you can build your very own working hovercraft. This hands-on project provides an engaging and practical way to understand air pressure and lift, transforming everyday materials into a functioning vehicle that glides effortlessly over flat surfaces.
Ideal for educational purposes and hobbyists alike, this kit makes learning interactive and enjoyable. It perfectly bridges the gap between theoretical science and practical experimentation. Please note that assembly is required, and you will need to supply 2x AA batteries to power the motor. The compact design ensures it is easy to store and operate, making it a fantastic addition to any classroom or home workshop.
