Erik launched his Hovercraft made out of trash on Kickstarter!
Why he did it?
Strawbees inventor Erik Thorstensson has always been a fan of engineering and technology projects, particularly R/C planes and cars.
One weekend he crashed his drone and wondered what he could do with the undamaged parts. He created the first prototype of the Hovercraft, using cardboard, and brought it to the Strawbees office. Since then, the team has used the Hovercraft every day.
Because Erik loves to design and prototype, he created a Hovercraft kit that encourages every kid (and parent) to experience the design process and create their own spectacular designs! And if it crashes and breaks, it can easily be restored with materials found in the waste bin.
