Love these builds, btw I added a piece of wood above the flamethrower on the balloon build and it's the best of both worlds/lights itself and stays airborne while the flamethrower/fans recharge. Once airborne, you can even remove the flamethrower if you'd rather save the power for the fan.

For the motorcycle, attach the stabiliser to a wood wheel. It allows the cycle to tilt forward and back, and will thus allow it to deal with changes in elevation.

[@MSCDonkeyKong]

6:45 i got an autobuild from a yiga template from the depths that was essentially the best of both worlds. its called the "dirigible", and its essentially a stone slab with two balloons and flame emitters underneath them, BUT, they had torches placed diagonally inside the balloon, directly above the flame emitter. so when the batteries run out, you'll still be floating due to the torch. might be good to make the dirigible but with just the one balloon.

[@LiamWhittle-tm7yo]

This vid got me subbed! I've been struggling to make the most out of the building mechanics and this has really opened my eyes to how useful it is! One more point to remember to save on zonaite is if you aren't in a hurry you can drop materials from your inventory and the autobuild will use them and reduce the zonaite cost if you have lots of parts but not a lot of spare zonaite

I was stuck on the coast and needed a way to get around a mountain. So I took a wooden half panel, placed a fan on one end and a control stick in the middle. After placing it in the water it was effectively a jet ski. I'm just starting out so I don't have much energy and was able to travel half way up the coast very easily. It would also be great for rivers but I haven't tried that yet. It's cheap, easy and doesn't use much energy.

I really wish they would add the feature of being able to take the autobuild components directly from your inverntory if you bought them with zonai charges and only then use zonaite to create the missing pieces, it would save a little time getting everything ready and prevent accidentally using some parts extraneously

[@TransDrummer1312]

My favorite was a 3 wheeler I built for buzzing around Akkala during the home building side quest. I spawned it while going up death mountain, and stuck rockets on it’s side to portage it and found myself able to just scoot up the mountain if I angled the rockets slightly forward, one on each side. It had two big wheels in the back, one small in the front, a control stick, and a long plank of wood in the middle. The Akkala dragster variant was all small wheels with axles between them. That thing could fly.

For a huge boost in both speed and maneuverability for that 2 fan 1 steering stick device, I slap 2 more fans adjacent to the left and right of the back fan, so you make sort of a T tetris shape of fans. Plus, the 2 fan variant is strong enough to hold a Korok that "really needs to get to his friend!", but *not* strong enough to hold a shrine crystal, but the 4 fan variant *is*. And, there's a zonai device dispenser on dragonhead island that dispenses both fans and steering sticks, making this an extremely easy one to restock

[@Chino11ification]

These are absolutely genius! Thanks

[@decepi]

Three fans, flat triangle, and a bouy on the center bottom to keep it level. Use ultra hand and time stop to make starting it easier, and as long as you have battery you can keep going vertically. If you have enough saved charges it’s basically an infinite vertical lift. I have it saved, and have cheeses a LOT of the super hard to get to sky islands and stuff with it.

This is probably my fault more than the game's but I avoided the Depths because it was 1. Scary 2. Required the Ubisoft Towers to light up the areas so I thought I'd prioritize Hyrule first 3. Seemed uninteresting at first, thinking it was just another Minecraft collectathon with a currency system only used in that area. I highly regret not taking my time to explore the depths even more and would strongly suggest new starters to get the Autobuild as soon as you can, since it makes the game more enjoyable (removes the repetitive stuff). I've explored Hyrule because that's what I was used to in BotW but really you should be checking out the depths like the game guides you (Josha's quest line).

if you're going to attach something to the spring, just add a second spring on top, same cost, more height

[@dragonknight7704]

I know I am late to this and you might already know this now, but using a torch on the balloon part to have the flame part in between the flame emitter and the balloon will allow for you to stay in the air while your battery recharges as while battery is recharging the flame from the torch is keeping the balloon filled enough to hopefully levitate still or fall slow enough for charging to happen

[@a.jackson9613]

Bro…. Having those “enemy traps” on auto build is a game changer and life saver!!

[@johnrickard8512]

Instead of saving multiple types of vehicles, I instead have only one type saved, but with multiple hardpoints for things like weapons. A personal favorite of mine is the one I call the "Bradley" ATV - it is a 6 wheeled battle tank with two construct heads for weaponry. It can climb terrain very well and has enough oomph to defeat most regular enemies - great for farming the depths. Now all I need to do is get my "Blackhawk" flying machine working.
