Looks good so far, except you will make the hovercraft out of something other than wood? Wood seems a bit...unreliable for this situation...
The battery is only for starting the engine, nothing else. There are no pneumatics. Also, the final craft will be made entirely of wood. What do you mean by it being unreliable?
