Abstract: Hovercraft prototype is designed and developed with complete hovercraft basic functions. The design process is very close to the boat and aircraft design process. In-depth research is conducted to evaluate basic functions of a hovercraft system, components, and its operating theory. Detailed design analysis is carried out to determine the size of the component parts and relevant standard requirements as applicable in the model of air cushion. An innovative method and design philosophy based on a flexible modular design that allows the construction of affordable hovercraft prefabricated modules are combined efficiently and sophisticatedly, enabling a dramatic reduction in manufacturing costs, providing one-size-fits all platforms that can accommodate a wide range of missions and applications. Hovercrafts have advanced vessel and their history more than half a century, as a popular marine vehicle. By introducing dynamic estimators for the disturbance and friction coefficients, the controller is made robust to constant external disturbances and uncertain model parameters. A projection operator is used to ensure that estimates remain within prescribed limits and are smooth enough to back step
