Product description Artec's Hovercraft Kit is an educational kit that teaches your kids and students about wind powered generation. The Hovercraft Kit uses the force generated by a propeller to hover and travel forward. The hovercraft floats and travels on a cushion of forced air. The wind derived from the propeller is divided to generate the power for the hovercraft to move forward and the power to float. Two AA batteries required (not included).

Great kit. I didn't build it as directed; we used the parts for my daughter's Science Olympiad team.

Doesnt hover
Do not buy this kit. This kit doesn't work. There is no way to make it work. The motor is seriously underpowered and the design does not channel enough airflow to the underside of the hovercraft to even lift the cardboard off the ground, much less the motor and batteries.The only redeeming thing about this kit is that the propeller assembly from this kit can be useful.I checked on line on Instructables for instructions for a hovercraft and found one using an old Styrofoam meat tray. Using a cleaned meat tray, a more powerful motor, a 9 volt battery, the propeller assembly from the kit, some wire, tape, cardboard, and a glue gun I was able to easily assemble a working hovercraft.

This kit is a horrible rip-off. It does not work
This kit is a horrible rip-off. It does not work.The box says for ages 8 and up. The assembly instructions require the use of a BOX CUTTER. Do you want an 8 year old using a BOX CUTTER?The two sided tape is nearly impossible to use. The instructions are poorly written.A 1 Star is too high a rating for this product

does not work do not buy
My boss gave my son this kit, but it does not levitate or move. My son says that at least he can use it as a fan.

Poor value
If you follow the directions it takes about 2 hours and 30 minutes to build and goes together easily. However it does not work because it is to heavy to get lift.
