If that thing descends stabily, you can make your landings less "crash" by snapping it with recall before you hit the ground

That’s a good idea. Most of my landings have been like that Hyrule Castle one but that could help a lot with keeping the flying machine from breaking or getting lost.

Me: Tries to put another on the other side

[@pinkfloydguy7781]

Will that work though?? The controlling is so hard for me to get a hang on haha, hmm… Edit: it works…. Kinda. It makes the autobuild cost go WAY up to 27, but if you attach another pitchfork, block, wheel and fan, it stabilizes your movement. The catch is, you are stuck moving diagonally up and to your right. I might try messing with the fan positions more and see what happens, but to stabilize the motion I had to place the fan facing the same exact direction as the original fan. I thought facing them opposite would balance it out and let you like, steer forward maybe? But nah. For some reason, if you make the other fan face the opposite way, so that the fans both lean toward Link, then the second new fan on his right will blow air up instead of down, and you end up flipping the whole thing over

[@johnathangoldsmith563]

[@bipmobopmo9286]

This is sick! I spent a while trying to crack the zero battery vehicle problem last year, but I was never able to make anything even close to as cheap or as maneuverable as this. Wanted to ask, what’s the special property of the flux construct box that you used?

[@new2you410]

Thank you! I’ve heard people refer to it as zero point energy before. Originally it was discovered that if the base of your vehicle was a special material like one of those low gravity rails or something you could get a wagon wheel to spin with a control stick even with no battery when the vehicle was partially submerged in water. I don’t completely understand why but it has something to do with resistances I’m told. A few months after that people discovered that there were even better materials out there that could achieve the same effect without the water. The two I know about are a raft with pointy sticks at the end that you can get from a Yiga base in the depths and the flux construct block but I’m sure there’s others out there. I was just experimenting with the flux construct block until I came up with this design. Sorry, I know it’s not much of an explanation but I don’t fully understand it either.

best thing about this stick is the crazy fast drop from the sky

[@AlaiaSkyhawk]

Have you considered adding one of the railings from the Construct Factory to this? (maybe crosswise flat on the top of the pitcfork in front of the cube. You might need to move the steering stick a touch further back if you want the same climb-rate, or keep it same spot and the build should fly flatter) They are super light, and naturally dampen sharp movements on flying machines. Perhaps one of them will help stabilise the build during take-offs and it should also help a bit with the natural right-wards drift.

So is the wheel being powered by the block, and then the wheel is rotating the fan? So the fan isn't powered, just rotating? Thanks!

[@new2you410]

Technically nothing is powered but yes, the special properties of the flux construct block are what allow you to spin the wagon wheel with the control stick. I don’t think this was intended by the developers at all. There’s a specific raft with pointy sticks that has the same properties as the flux construct block. Which means there’s probably other materials out there that would work as well.

Yeah the placement of everything is pretty particular. The best thing to do is probably take everything apart and rebuild it from scratch.

After that just experiment with different placements of the control stick until it stops with the spinning and the wobbling.

I like the idea the only issue is the construct blocks are incredibly heavy so it would need a lot more propellers to fly 😅

[@_Just_Another_Guy]

I.... I didn't even know you can fuse the individual blocks from the Flux Constructs... And I've been playing this game since release day. I wanna do an experiment and fuse most of the blocks to a lot of shields and see if that makes the Flux Construct smaller or incomplete when it rebuilds itself.

You can do that. The only problem is that with two propellers, whenever you try to turn to the left they lock up and you fall out of the sky. So you can’t steer it very well.

When you put a stick on a car/cart with wheels, Link is NOT facing the back or front of the wheels, but is PARALLEL to them. Thus the stick here need to be parallel to the wheel to control it spinning forward (left/up)) or back (right/down).
