Vehicle Model Not Rendering

Hi there,

Ive come to adding a model to stock tge 1.4, and have run into some issues at a basic level. I have basically copied car.cs, and modified the vehicle into a hover vehicle using an example datablock. When I go into game the player behaves exactly as a hoverVehicle should, but no model or collision mesh renders. When I drop the shape as a static it it render pefectly with collision mesh etc. I'm at a loss at determining exactly what is wrong, the scripts or the model, and why the model will work as a static but not as an actual vehicle.

I have included all the info I have, and I would appreciate any help people can offer.

Schematics of the model
