Here's how to build your own hovercraft

Drones are defined as a non-piloted aircraft, controlled remotely by the user. Viewed as an innocent pastime by some, and an annoying invasive toy to others, drones have become increasingly popular in recent years with models hitting the market for as little as $40 (£25).

FAA ?? Have they something to say about your build and eventually test flight ?

I'm pretty sure these would fall under ultralight aircraft, which as long as you operate them within certain limits don't require any special licensing.

I'd rather have a drummer for a neighbor. That is the most annoying contraption I can think of.

Someone learning how to play the pipes, without the use of a practice chanter.

I'd also be loathe to call it a hovercraft, surely it's a form of VTOL aircraft? Reminds me a bit of the Flying Bedstead.
