Re: pic: Twin Fan Powered Vex Prototype#2
As for steering you can do it the same way new cruise liners do it, rather than put a rudder behind the fan turn/angle the entire fan. This if done right would take -/= power to do that moving rudders or turning the front wheel. This technique has made cruise liners much more fuel efficient and is now standard, granted this is air, not water and fuel isn't your concern. It is still a way to solve the problem at hand.
