I want to possess a hoverboard in 3rd person view

Hello all,
I would like to possess a hoverboard from a 3rd person perspective and control the player and hover board, eventually animating the character to pose according to movement.

I created a simple staticmesh and attached one bone to it and imported it as a vehicle. i looked for a flying class but did not see one in the blueprint creation search.

Does anyone have a pipeline in place from 3ds Max or Maya utilizing a similar gameplay type?

Thanks.
