That might work. Hovering with ground effect is a lot easier than flying. I took the weight data from one of the earlier links that I posted above and applied an area rule scaling (similar wing loading) for the thrust the saucer airfoil would have to generate for vertical lift flight. The Airport Base Station plastic shell (200 grams total weight) is about 10X heavier than I would like; it would have to be used as a form for a lightweight composite hull and would never fly itself.

Some other ideas: put wheels on it as a robot vacuum cleaner; stationary use on the workbench or at the end of an adjustable arm with a fan inside and some vents to keep flux fumes away from me during soldering; Halloween UFO porch light decoration.
