Large 3D Printed RC Hovercraft - Hovernaught 2.5

Testing out the new Master Airscrew props. These are factory balanced race props that I found online. I am not sponsored by them, I purchased them for testing. They are VERY aggressive @ 11x10!
With the new prop motor combo and losing all that weight from changing the design around I am thoroughly impressed with how fast this thing is now!
The low end grunt from the aggressive prop allows nice maneuverability and keeps overall amperage down it seems since the motors don't need to spin as fast.
I'm also happy to report the nylon spacers / standoffs for the motor mounts have completely cured the plastic warping issues.
This run is still on the first skirt I made with the new clamping system. Over 2 hours of time on asphalt so far! :-O
This skirt is technically too small, and needs one about 6 inches larger overall. I will put a new one on when this one is finally destroyed enough but for now it works good enough to enjoy.

Coming soon: New controller, and perhaps a gyro for heading correction? thinking about it.. What do you think?
Thanks everyone for your support on this project over the years I have thoroughly enjoyed designing and building this thing from scratch!

Hi, I was wondering if I could ask for tour help, I bought a SGI Fuel a few years ago from you on eBay... Also I bought a HD with Irix 6.5.30 for my Tezro I need help with that hard drive I am selling my Tezro and I have come up on some issues

[@DoogieLabs]

Howdy Edward I remember selling you a fuel! you can shoot me an email [e-mail] Also, if you have discord (they also have a web chat interface) you can join the silicon graphics user group channel where there are many people that are really good about answering questions. Things have changed over the years in regards to tools available to reload operating systems, etc. So I think we'll be able to get you sorted out. Thanks
