Fan Hovercraft

How to calculate the thrust force of a fan?

For example, I have a fan that is capable of pushing to 252 cubic feet of air per minute and has a diameter of 11.2 cm. What other measures have to find the driving force behind a fan? Or how do I measure if thats a better way? I was thinking of a scale that binds to a large flat cardboard and with the scale measuring the strength of the fan on the board, but may not be very accurate. I'm trying to build an R / C hovercraft and I need to find some fans that can push a good amount of air. With sufficient thrust that must be capable of supporting the fan / batteries, housing, RC and chassis, but I'm trying to put numbers on the prospect of seeing my weight limit.

You need to reach the mass and velocity of air to calculate the thrust. measurement would be easier to do. Organize the fan support (perhaps with strings) so you can blow air downward and despite a spring scale. Then turn on the fan and reweigh. If the fan does not lift it, your hovercraft is doomed to failure. If you are going to rise, turn upward apparatus down and see how much force the fan can pull up with. That will tell you how much weight to bear, besides himself.
