Arduino Nano Bluetooth Air Cushion Vehicle Kit - Build a Phone-Controlled Hovercraft That Glides and Steers

Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.

Imagine a craft that floats on a cushion of air, surging forward with the tap of your phone, turning crisply on command - all built by your own hands. This kit takes you through the physics of lift and thrust, while teaching real-world embedded systems and Bluetooth communication. Whether for a science exhibition, a college mini-project, or a weekend robotics challenge, the finished hovercraft becomes a vivid demonstration of engineering principles.

What You'll Build

A lightweight platform hovers on air from a downward-facing 5V fan. A second rear fan provides forward thrust. A servo-controlled rudder steers the craft left and right. All commands are sent from a smartphone via Bluetooth using an HC-05 module, processed by an Arduino Nano, and executed through an L298N motor driver. The result is a fully functional remote-controlled hovercraft that glides over smooth floors.

What You'll Learn

• Arduino programming for serial Bluetooth communication and motor control logic
• Driving DC motors with an L298N H-bridge and managing direction and speed
• Calibrating and controlling a servo motor for precise rudder angles
• Assembling a circuit with diodes and capacitors to suppress motor noise and ensure stable operation
