A motor can seperately power a fan that blows either in a forward movement or reverse movement. The air can be projected towards a direction with blades/rudders. The combination of both a fan blowing towards the ground (creating lift), and an upright fan blowing to create movement can make a hovercraft "go"

How do you get to the spaceship on Astro Knights Island?

The crashed saucer Excalibur is in the mud past the Mill. Use the hovercraft to reach it. To get to the hovercraft in the attic of the mill, pull the rope to unlock the gears. Then go outside and turn the windmill arms by jumping on them. When they turn counterclockwise, the roof dome will open. Add manure to the hovercraft and it will go to the swamp. Get the hovercraft working and you can go out into the mud swamp. (see related question)


Is it possible to make a helium hovercraft?

While helium can provide buoyancy, it would not be practical for creating a hovercraft. Hovercraft rely on an air cushion from a fan or propeller to lift them off the ground, not just buoyancy like a balloon. Helium's properties wouldn't allow for the necessary control and maneuverability of a hovercraft.
