Ugears pays tribute to rescue teams around the world with the Rescue Hovercraft model. What fire department, police department or search and rescue team wouldn’t want to have this rescue hovercraft ready to go after a natural disaster? When a major storm hits, it’s possible to no longer distinguish between flooded areas and dry land, making it impossible for regular rescue vehicles, boats or trucks, to reach survivors. This is where the hovercraft shines. Able to skim any surface – earth, water, mud or ice – thanks to a cushion of air, hovercraft can take emergency personnel where they are needed most, plucking people from floodwaters and rescuing them from rooftops or delivering supplies to otherwise inaccessible areas.

The Rescue Hovercraft by Ugears is a stylish 1:24 scale wooden model of an all-terrain twin-propeller hovercraft. This DIY model is powered by a spring motor, with a ratchet wrench for winding located on the undercarriage of the boat. A Start/Stop switch allows you to wind the motor by making ten clockwise turns of the wrench, then start the engine while the dual-thrust propellers spin and the boat performs graceful pre-set turns to the right and left over a distance of 3 meters, imitating the gentle rolling motion of real hovercrafts.

Exceptional realism, ingenious design and attention to detail are the hallmarks of Ugears models. The Rescue Hovercraft features a large air cushion like a skirt, a hand-operated movable lift fan at the bow, laser-etched lift fans at the stern, two large engine-driven thrust fans, a rudder and a cockpit with seats for four, two mounted life rings, built-in headlights at the bow and search lights mounted at the stern of the cockpit for nighttime rescue.

Like all Ugears models, the Rescue Hovercraft is made of artist-quality composite wood. You can leave the model in its attractive natural wood state or paint it in the colors of your local police or fire department. To assemble it, simply detach the pre-cut laser-cut pieces from the boards and snap them together. Each kit comes with a piece of sandpaper and wax, which you can use to smooth and lubricate the moving parts during assembly. Follow the detailed, step-by-step, color-illustrated instructions in 11 languages ​​(Ukrainian, English, German, French, Polish, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Japanese, Chinese and Korean) to build it to perfection. With 383 pieces and a medium difficulty level, the Rescue Hovercraft model promises 6 hours or more of fun to assemble, while you dream of all the rescue operations your vessel will perform.
