Hovercrafts
I have to admit that I didn't know what a hovercraft was when a friend gave this book/toy as a gift to my daughter. She loves it! She's an aspiring pilot and plowed through the book part in no time flat--especially the little action-adventure stories involving different kinds of hovercraft missions. The toy works great, no real problems. It really does glide over the ground "on a cushion of air," as long as the floor is very flat.

Don't Waste your Money on This Pamplet
Don't waste your money on this pamplet, which I basically flipped through in less then 30 seconds after receiving and read the whole thing. What a waste. Even if you are seriously into hovercrafts or just interested in starting out into the hobby of R/C, I have NO doubts that you could find better books/material that would help you more then this would. Read the other reviews and Take heed. I didn't want to give it any stars, but had to rate it 1 for review to go through. I am saying nothing else.
