Yep! I have one of those propane heaters...I think they refer to them as "salamanders". It's about 10 years old but still works like new. Right now, the garage is probably 35 degrees. Fire up that heater and within 10 minutes, my single car garage is in the 70's. Awesome!!!
we call them torpedoes derek n i plan on getting one that runs on either kerosene or diesel even jet fuel....

i will have my controls set up like this skirt inflation will be set up on throttle so i have precise control of inflation forward propulsion is on elevator only forward propulsion unless anyone knows of a 30amp esc with reverse that way i can have reverse also.. and rudder controls will be on ailerons....

Actually, this is the type of ESC that would be required. Would definitely need a car/truck/boat ESC in order to get the reverse function.

i would say the boat esc with reverse if there is one mainly cuz a hovercraft will most likely be on water every once and awhile
