The Typhoon Hovercraft is a Radio Controlled (RC) hovercraft…
Wait, what? RC HOVERCRAFTS ARE REAL! Who knew? Tyco does! See more…
Let’s begin with a history lesson. Today, I fly drones of all shapes and sizes and have my FAA Part_107 license, so I can operate anything under 49 lbs… safely. There were two RC toys or models that I wanted growing up, the Tyco Typhoon and a classic RC helicopter.
I’m not sure why, but my love for RC vehicles led me to fly drones today.Let’s talk about the Tyco Typhoon. It was an incredible machine. Take a look at the video. What stands out to you the most? RC hovercrafts(that’s the correct answer). This was one of my first and only “teenage/adult”-ish toys growing up. It had real NiMH and NiCd Batteries not just 15 D batteries, a reliable, true remote transmitter and everything you needed to have for a 10 minute run over cement, dirt, water, ice, or hardened snow (like an igloo).
It was about the durability, the consistency of the drive, the controllability, agility. The more kid-friendly versions had limited controls, maybe just forward and backward, with a turn function built into the reverse setting. Or, in some cases, just a “go” button. The more advanced RC vehicles had a trigger and steering wheel, some of which are still in use today (FrSky, DumboRC, Radiolink, etc.) For more information, you can check horizonhobby.com.

I don’t typically share videos like these, can be spammy or kitschy… I’m truly sorry if you feel this way…. However, there are some cool gadgets and tech in the video. Let’s have a look.
I thought you might be interested in seeing such as cool Newtonian fluid gadgets, the lights, the spider drone (which is very cool tech) and wave-board (hydrofoil) concepts. I’m in it for the drones, the quadcopters (RC aircraft, helos, quad-motor craft), RC cars, trucks and the spider-like drone. What a cool concept.
Lego, pushing the big stone… interesting, right? I don’t know, I thought it was worth the couple 2 or 3 minutes to take a peak at what gadgets are out there. That at the time, we not mainstream. Today, we have most of the items in the video. The technology step or turn, continues to turn ever so much faster.
