Hovermarine HM218 built by James Ramsey
This is a model of a sidewall hovercraft fire and rescue boat (Hovermarine HM218) built by James Ramsey.

This started its life as a broken hand vacuum cleaner. Opened up there are two squirrel cage fans. He obtained pictures, sale data, amd small GA drawings from a Hovercraft Museum and was able to scratch build.

It has twin motors operated through mixer and two ESCs, steerable fire monitors plus nav lights, deck lights, flasher, fire pump, siren, rear mast lights and serch lights operated from the transmitter via a Digiserv unit.

Dusseldorf built by Dave Gibson
Dusseldorf that's recently been finished by Dave Gibson. He has still got a few bugs to Iron out on the electrics such as rudder and motor twitches.

He also thinks it seems to be a little under powered and noisy (however his last build was a motor torpedo boat) so it may just be a little getting used to.
