I put 4 fans on the underside of a wing and was able to fly it for over 10 minutes!

When my battery was depleted and I was gliding to recharge the normal wing timer started but when the fans were powered again the timer stopped and I could fly indefinitely!

What!?! I'm going to have to give this a try. Thanks!

I hadn't noticed until I realized I'd used a full battery and a couple of large zonite charges.

After gliding to recharge a couple of times the wing started to flash, but when the fans turned back on the flashing stopped until the fans were turned off!

That sounds great! My big gripe about the wings is them not lasting long enough. A cycling fan-and-glide rotation could help fly around Hyrule and explore easier.

I think I got to almost 20 minutes, but used all my zonite in the process too!

Interesting… how did you keep from running out of power?

[–] ilovecheese 2 points 1 year ago

Either use a large zonite charge to refill your battery, or just let go of the stick and glide to recharge. Glidng will deplete the wing timer again though.

This is great. I enjoy flying with the wings and hate when they start flashing.

Omigosh if this works its going to half solve my biplane problems.

At that point, couldn't you just use a wooden board as the base of the vehicle? Some of the sky islands have vehicles made from fans positioned like you're saying plus a metal grate, and the handle pretty well. It seems the game realizes this and treats the wing the same.

I suppose you could, but the board wouldn't let you glide a few times to recharge your battery like the wing.
