      Rescue Hovercraft
      Assemble me. Ride to the rescue with me!

      Ugears salutes rescue teams everywhere with the Rescue Hovercraft model. What fire or police department, or search and rescue team, wouldn't love to have this Rescue Hovercraft ready to go after a disaster? When a large storm strikes, there can be a neighborhood by neighborhood, or even street-by-street mix of flood zones and dry land, making it impossible for ordinary rescue vehicles, whether boats or trucks, to reach survivors. Able to skim any surface–land, water, mud, or ice—on a cushion of air, hovercraft can bring emergency personnel where they're needed most, plucking people from floodwaters and rooftops or delivering supplies to otherwise inaccessible areas.

      The Ugears Rescue Hovercraft is a 1:24 scale wooden model of a sleek, twin-propeller all-terrain hovercraft. This DIY wooden model is driven by a spring motor, with a windup ratchet key located on the craft's undercarriage. A Start/Stop switch allows you to wind the engine by giving ten clockwise turns, then engage the motor as the twin thrust propellers spin and the boat executes graceful, preprogrammed left and right turns over a distance of 3 meters, imitating the gentle swaying motion of a real hovercraft. Outstanding realism, clever design, and attention to detail are the hallmarks of Ugears models.

      Vendor Info

      UGEARS, a Ukraine-based company developed the concept of self-assembly wooden models in 2015. UGEARS assembly kits offer a way to experience a world of real-life tiny mechanics. The building sets are two-in-one: a puzzle and a toy. On the one hand, they are exciting to put together, while on the other, after the assembly is complete, the models evolve into the most sophisticated toys that are amusing to kids, “ Look, the train looks like a real one!”, yet engaging for adults, “Wow, check the way the mechanical drive is connected; what is its overall gear ratio?”
