Yes,I recieved mine Last Tuesday.I suggest that you put a Gyro on the Rudder,otherwise it is hard to control.After putting the Gyro on it is fast and fun
I recieved mine last Tuesday.It is a nice Hovercraft,after putting a Gyro on the Rudder it is fast and fun. the bottom skirt has a tendency to pull away from the center section, but a little CA and it is fin again.

i got my hoverjet a few days ago, and think it's pretty cool. i added lights to it (cuz i often drive at night) and with the 9volt battery for the 10 lights,& 3S 2200ma lipo battery it seems a little heavy. I kinda want a bigger lift motor to accommodate the extra weight, but am unsure of which motor would work best. any suggestions?? otherwise,, it's pretty fast once it gets going, but there's lots of cracks and uneven spots in street, so i think it would hover better on a flatter surface. it's a nice change from the usual cars and trucks i drive!

this hovercraft is great. it drives like a drift car on an ice rink, as in: EPIC. you can go round corners completely sideways, just have to steer with both rudder throttle combined. to go round a corner: approach the corner at 3/4 throttle, turn it about 45 degrees and cut throttle to 1/2 about four feet away from the corner. once you get to the corner, turn the rest of the way round and increase throttle, feathering the throttle a bit if you have to. you should be sliding sideways, like a drift car. counter steer, so as not to spin, and begin to straighten on the way out of the corner. slowly straighten out, do not jerk back to straight. returning to straight too violently will make the rotary inertia spin it too far, leading to a violent swinging from side to side as one overcorrection leads to another. now onto the review: this is a great hovercraft, but the lower foam piece tends to tear off if running on asphalt. other than that, this is a really fun hovercraft at a good price. DEFINITELY ORDER FROM THE U.S. warehouse.
