This hovercar was part of a project assigned with the title "make something cool." It is not designed to float on a cushion of air like real hovercars, but it instead floats on a plastic wrap bubble powered with balloons.
Educationally, this hovercar can provide lessons in math and physics, in the context of calculating thrust. Having taken multiple boring physics classes where teachers try and explain thrust with whiteboard drawings, I found this model useful for understanding thrust to weigh
