I also added a dragon spike to the bottom of the control stick. Took some work to get it on there just right, and you need to add it last. Dragon parts and anything they are attached to despawn at much greater distances than anything else. We're talking being able to travel a loooong way before they break or vanish. Plus, they glow, so they make your bike much easier to see from a distance. Lastly you can photo them and use the sensor to find them. So you can park your bike, explore to your heart's content, and then always find it. It won't survive dying or fast traveling, but otherwise it's a great way to make your glider last as long as possible.

And a great how-to on building one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oq4LmYEFlHM

It do be pretty op, makes traversal almost too easy. Putting the fans on the sides instead (what I like calling the green bokoblin glider) covers distance faster but is harder to maneuver. I disassemble and reassemble often to switch between the bike and glider configuration depending on my needs at any given time

What stick do I have to use for that?

If you attach a dragon scale then it won't get despawn even when far away. (A tip from a video) If you want to go in shrine just take the scale off before enter.

Good ol "hover bike", as most call it. It's ludicrously useful, in large part frankly because the game nerfed most forms of flying, with balloons, wings, and those floating blocks around sky islands always disappearing after a minute or two (which bizarrely sometimes doesn't seem long enough to reach some of the furthest away sky islands -- particularly where King Gleeoks are).

Only downsides are that the hover bike will constantly rise with no means to descend and I was never able to make one that didn't drift in one direction (requiring constant correction). I assume my fans were just ever so slightly off center or not placed on a flat enough surface or something, but I never could get it to work better).

It’s hard not to play the entire game using it. I try to stick to only using it for the korock transport missions and going between sky islands, so I can still get plenty of exploration done.

It is great, but I had a bit of a tough time getting the balance right. Followed one of the videos and took me many tries.

How do you ensure the “alignment” is perfect with the hover bike?

Whenever I make this one I’m the bike drifts to one side, even if I think I put the fans on straight.
