]]> Registration problem with discoverhover.org website Schlauncha http://forum.discoverhover.org/post/100#100 2009-12-14T11:58:26-04:00 2009-12-14T11:58:26-04:00 I'm glad I at least got this forum account to work, being a separate entity. When I filled out all my info on the DiscoverHover.org website to register with them, it sent a confirmation email to me. When I click on the link to confirm, it goes to a DiscoverHover.org page saying "Your email address has been confirmed! Welcome to DiscoverHover!" but then when I go to log in, it gives an error, saying "You have not completed the registration process. You may not log in until you have completed this process by following the instructions which were emailed to you. To resend this message, click here."

I have had it re-send the confirmation email four times, opened that confirmation link a dozen times, and still it will not let me log in with that account because it says the registration process is not complete. I'm trying to get info so I can start on a hovercraft project tying in with my shop work here in college, so it's important that I can access this site, since it sounds like, through all my googling, this is probably my most reliable source for getting info on how to build one that actually works. I already have the engine, and ALL the tools of the college at my disposal, so all I need is these plans and I'd be set!

Hello there,

I am designing a hovercraft for my third year project at uni. Need some help with a few points as this is the first thing time i've got involved with hovercraft so i know practically nothing. I am using a design book by G.H. Williams to design my craft. It tells me that the total weight is four times the payload. This gives me a total weight of 3327.307409lbs. I want this craft to be a small as possible. What dimensions would be practical. Also my cushion pressure is around 35lb/sq ft. i know this is high but is it acceptable. All help is welcome.

Many thanks

Arry

Isn't it impossible to stand still with the hovercraft once you have started the engine, if you only have one engine and propeller? I mean as soon as you start filling the cusion the air is starting to push the hovercraft forward.

Somebody got any experience of this matter?

Can anyone help?

I have just downloaded the free plans off the discoverhover website, and have found that all of the files are of a ".dwg" extension.

Does anyone know what program you need to open the files? And if so, Do i need to buy an expensive program?

Hello, I seem to have been excluded from the list of people able to get free hovercraft plans. I am a 30yr old uni student in England. I am studying marine environmental science and a collegue and myself want to build a hovercraft and a personal shallow water submersible for our final year project. Any ideas?

Hey,

I am 13 and I go to a jr. high in Utah, and I would like to recieve these plans. I can build this, I do this sort of stuff all the time. But I don't want to send all my info to the site, no matter how many times they swear they won't spam me. If anyone can give me the link to download these plans, I would appreciate it.
