Thats awesome! Is the engine powered by fuel or stored energy?

I've must have mistaken a part of the craft a a pneumatic component, I thought I have seen an air pump near the front fan, but It must have been another part of the engine.

From my past experiences with wood, I've always have had trouble with reliability ,with pieces constantly breaking off, weathering, mites, and heavy friction which may result a fire hazard. But those were just my experiences. I deeply apologize for my misunderstanding.
Since the aircraft is entirely made of wood, would be some water proof enamel-type finish?

Once again, I apologize for my ignorance, and applaud your progress on making a piloted hovercraft. So far, your project looks amazing!
