A Flying Hoverboard that I want to replicate
So, some days ago I was rethinking my childhood and remember that I was obsessed with ben 10, particularly with the hoverboard in the film (https://ben10.fandom.com/wiki/Hoverboards). Right now, I really want to construct a replication of it, but I am stuck with some problems. First, what type...- kpuding

Electromagnetic Levitation for a stationary hoverboard - How can I do it?
I am University Student currently working on a project to make a stationary hover board. This is just a prototype and does not need to support a human and only needs to support about 1kg but with as much "lift" or distance between the magnets as possible - (100mm?) Ideally we want to be able to...- Ben Pickard

Could Electromagnetic Levitation Create a Feasible Hoverboard Solution?
Hi, My name is Kendall. After seeing the Back to the Future again, I have been once again fascinated by the hoverboards, as I'm sure many others are also guilty of. A couple hours of research into magnetism later, and I'm still stuck. I have little to no experience with magnetism, but I figure...- KendaufTheOld

Is it possible for "me" to make a hoverbike?
Hi, I saw a video of a guy who made a hover and figured; hey, I should try making one too. I've a general design in my mind. His design had two propellers, one on the front and one on the rear. I wanted to make a bike with more than 2 propellers( assuming more the propellers, greater the...- Aman Trivedi

Hendo Hoverboard 2.0: From Science Fiction to Fact
A few years ago I came on this board after Mattel released a prop replica. I suggested maybe a real Hoverboard will be invented. I was told in no uncertain terms, that I was talking science fiction and this was a Physics forum. With Hendo announcing today a 2.0 version of their hoverboard. How...- gopolks

I want some advice on making a hoverboard
The hoverboard would be a long, sleek, light, metal board with two strong but small fans underneath for power and another one on the end for propulsion. I would be about 3 feet in length, 5 in. in width, and about 4 cm. in height. The metal board would be in the shape of a skateboard but a...- Hoverboardfan

How does this hoverboard work?
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/142464853/hendo-hoverboards-worlds-first-real-hoverboard I see that it says it's based on Lenz's law, which says that the induced currents will generate a field that opposes the change in the field. So, I figure they have some kind of oscillating magnetic... -
