This is the ONLY Vehicle you will ever need in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom 

As it turns out, only some Zonai devices disappear while using it. These 2 items DO NOT ever disappear, making this bike more powerful than the video represented.

Been using this everywhere now. Throw a large bloom seed in the front and it works wonders in the depths. People are very creative.

As a tip, if you wanna use this to transport a Korok, just save a build with 2 fans side by side in the back instead of one. You’ll need the extra lift for the little guy

I've already got that one saved to my favorites. Incredibly effective. Used it last night to reach with ease a sky island that the game expects you to navigate towards through a convoluted path of floating platforms and launch devices. There's also a trick to restore its battery while midair. Keep using Recall on it again and again. Use Recall to freeze it in the air for a sec and cancel it as soon as it starts to move backwards. Then use Recall on it again to repeat. The battery recharges the whole time so when it's full again, you just grab the control stick again and keep going.

even better, flip it on its side then throw a big brightbloom seed on the base of the steering stick for the depths. Mapped the whole depths on just 2 of these.

If you put another fan directly under front one it will sit upright and go slightly faster with better downward control

I've been using this hover bike since release. I usually refer to it as "my ride." As in, "Oh no! My ride fell off the giant mushroom again!" Or, "Damn it, the Frok ate my ride!" A couple of notes for new users: 1. These two Zonai parts never decay due to time/use. They will disappear at a certain range from Link, but as long as you keep it in range, the parts will last forever. The only parts that have short life span, that I know of, are the glider and rocket. Afaik, Zonia batteries will persist once empty, and continue to weigh on your device. 2. This bike allows very quick descent, but you have to become familiar with the drop distance. If you quickly release the steering stick by pressing B, then immediately press A to "control" it again, you'll drop 40 or so meters before the fan kicks back on with enough force to arrest your fall. You'll retain control of the device. I'm often high enough to do 3-4 of these "stall" drops before I'm near the ground and it saves a ton of time circling in a downward spiral when you're trying to reach a target directly below you. 1b. Any short fall that doesn't separate you from the steering stick pad will not cause Link damage when the ride hits the ground. So a quick B then A will often land you fast without risk of damage. I use this stall drop mostly to control where my ride lands so that, as mentioned in point 1, it stays within range of Link and does not disappear. 3. Recall is your friend. I'm sorry, there's nothing I can offer to recover your ride if a Frok eats it. However, if your ride falls off a mushroom, or any other ledge, and you can still get line of sight on it, you can recall it to any earlier position. Drop it wherever in your flight path you want it by pressing L with Recall as your selected ability! If you're the experienced player thinking "Well, duh, that's what recall does..." I mention it in case new users haven't thought of it yet. Just remember to step out of the way. Anything you recall, including your Zonia hover bike, will do damage if you're standing in its path. **Frok Spoiler** It occurs to me just now that this has revealed a tactic for fighting Froks! When Froks try to vaccuum you in, they'll stop and chew the first thing they suck in. So perhaps since we have unlimited Zonai devices, drop one near you so that it'll get eaten and triggers the Frok's chewing. Then an eye-shot is much easier. Scourge of the Depths hoovers like crazy, so this will be particularly helpful. The trouble with parking a ride near a Frok is that it almost inevitably is too close and will get sucked in. Park it farther away and it'll despawn due to range. This would be super annoying if not for the Zonia device duping.

I spent like two hours trying to get the fans lined up perfectly. I’m not ever exaggerating, I started at around 3:00pm and ended sometime after 4:45

You know, I was so sad that by the time I got the Master Cycle Zero in BOTW, I was essentially done with the game. In TOTK, you get it in the beginning, it can fly, fuels itself with time, and also you can increase the tank. Excellent.

ive seen this many times and i actually used this to get the zonaite armor and also just explore the sky islands, using the large zonai charges and duplicating them gives you infinite battery no matter the size so you never need to use a horse again.

Been using this the last couple of days and it's so good! I actually used it to complete the Eldin dungeon. I would just fly around everywhere instead of using the minecarts and if you use one of the big light seeds, it provides a lot of light making exploration in the depths super easy. Just be careful that it doesn't fly away since throwing a seed at what I call "Hagrid's motorcycle" makes it fly away so you'll need to quickly strike it with a weapon before it flies off by itself.

Definitely good for light transport, but sticking weapons on it makes it too heavy. I made a version with two fans in the back and one in the front, and it stays pretty fast even with two construct heads and beam emitters on it. Great vehicle for strafing runs

As a tip for the Sinai duplication glitch: If you choose your items and you just do the duplication glitch standing any where, your device will appear but nothing will be taken from inventory!

blaines: "i don't get why this games has so much battery, we can't use them all" my 20 parts ultra-mech with 8 laser & cannon arm: 🗿

I use this design with 2 fans in the back instead. The extra back fan gives more stability for very little extra power draw. I crash far less often, and landing is easier, in my experience.

This is the exact flying device I've been using (with a giant glow bulb in the depths) and it really is one of the best ways to get around this game.

I spend an HOUR to adjust it to fly pretty much straight without steering my controller stick. Worth it.

If you’re more of an on the ground guy try using a flat cart and two small wheels with a steering stick. It moves super fast is easy to turn and barely uses up any battery. Definitely my ideal ground vehicle.

Literally the only zonai build i use when ever i need to travel its so useful

You can most definetly burn through your entire battery several times over before it breaks. Only the wing breaks that fast thankfully. Been using this ship for a few days, is so good!

i think its only the glider that despawns, i used one of these bikes to traverse from one end of the depths to the other (west end to east end) without anything disappearing, a glider however disappears after like 30 feet, maybe the devs encountered an issue with them if they last too long

If you have max batteries, you can slap on two more fans in the back for more lift and forward speed

that vehicle do not disappear ever

I usually dont click on TotK videos cause i'm currently so invested in my own playthrough. But i'm glad i did this time cause this is cool af.

you can't reverse, if you ride into a wall you're stuck. if you hit a wall, press B, recall 1-2 seconds . if you run out of battery, press B to turn off, tap L, recall, then quickly release recall, you can spam recall and cancel recall to keep it from ever moving while letting your battery charge back up to max. this bike was literally my first build almost 2 weeks ago so I had a lot of time to trial and error stuff and this is the way that works best for me

Here’s a fun device I made: get a square plank. Attach 5 frozen regular meat to one side. Flip it over. In one corner, place a fan with the back of it facing the other corner. Put a control stick in the middle. Now you have a hovercraft. It motors through the water perfectly because the front corner angles a bit upward due to fan weight in the back. It turns super fast. And it maneuvers even faster on the ground than the water because the frozen meat is so slippery.

If you have multiple big batteries stick, the steering stick on top of the big battery works like a charm

This makes a real good explorer in the underground by just throwing a large lightbloom onto the front and staying a bit close to the ground. Just remember the bloom will trigger the fans so jump on quick

Brilliant!! Thanks so much for the blueprint for this bc the constant break down of devices were annoying. I modified it a bit and instead of one in the front in back, if you put a steering stick on a fan with two fans infront and 2 in the back it flies wonderfully! Never woukd have thought of that without you! Thank you!!

what i like about it even more, it leaves room to add stuff, like lets say you need to add a korok just put another fan on the opisite side you put the korok, same gose for shrine stones, and if you have a huge battery, can add stuff like wep's. so much you can do with it.

Video starts at 2:05, 2 fans & 1 steering stick!

Can't you rewind your vehicle for short durations of time? Can't you recharge your battery IN FLIGHT? I haven't played the game, but from what I've seen, that should be possible. And you won't need MORE battery.

Is there a good way to make sure everything is "lined up"? I keep building it to where I think it looks straight, but the second I get on it, it starts wanting to flip over, etc.

The only zonai vehicles that despawn are the one thats fly on there own. Such as the floating stone or wing any other peiece will remain so long as you stay near it

honestly, most ppl know the design but trying to get the control stick and fan perfectly straight is the difficult part

I did make this the other day. It does disappear but it takes FOREVER. I think roughly around an hour of use.

Any tips for centering the connected parts? I've tried building this air bike 30 times now and it keeps being just a bit off-center causing the thing to veer to one side. There doesn't seem to be a way to click-to-center like the blocks and slabs which grid lock. Also where is the best mounting point for a korok or green shrine stone? I seem to have trouble changing the height if I attach to the front or back, and too close to the center causes the control stick to be inaccessible. Is there a version with more fans that works better or more reliably for cargo purposes?

it's easy to recharge battery mid-air too. just recall for a bit

Until now I've explored everything on foot/horseback. But I am finished with depths and surface. Well, and for the sky this is must have! Also, for depths is great - plain cart, balloon, wood and flint. It helps a lot, usually it can take you waay up. Thanks!

I've tried this so many times and it just can't ever fly straight and also flips over so easily Link just keeps falling off....

The fans also work if being used on the side! (think green goblin hover-board vibes) if you can't get the straightness down :)

This vehicle lasts a long time. I used it to fly to about 20 different light roots in the depths before it disappeared. And it might have only disappeared because it was made from all zonaite instead of the actual parts. I'm not sure if that makes a difference or not but either way it lasts way longer than some of the other things.

The entire reason I have every light root it bc of this all you have to do is add a large brightbloom seed on the front and it means light without extra battery usage or weight it works wonders

This thing is bloody genius!! Hubby had been getting really annoyed with the building system, nothing lived up to it's potential. This has been a game changer, literally! He's adapted a 4 fan unit with fans to either side for stability and carrying things and uses it all the time. Bright blooms for light, big dude for a weapon. Thank you so much for posting this build!!

I use an air trike. There is no need to do anything. Just activate it, and it just takes off. Ascent is great, descent is great. And it is easy to handle. The air bike is a bit wonky.

It's the only vehicle you will need to get Link around yes. But the 2-fan air bike cannot carry items. It can barely carry a korok but it's difficult to control. It can't even get off the ground with a shrine crystal. You need 3 fans to carry things. However, it's very difficult to get 3 fans perfectly balanced (it took me over an hour of continuous rebuilding to get my 2 fan bike balanced). It's MUCH easier to balance with 4 fans, and since you will only be using the 4 fan version to carry things and not as general transportation for Link, it doesn't matter that it takes more battery. Plus if you have 16 batteries + the full zonaite set it doesn't matter anyway. However, it is very difficult to add additional fans to this design while keeping it balanced. My air vehicles all have to follow the 1 minute rule. I take off and face a cardinal direction, then let go of the stick. If, after a minute, it is not still flying the exact same direction, I have to tear it apart and start again. I did finally get the 2 fan version perfect...still working on the 4 fan version for carrying things. The fact that these vehicles are so difficult to get balanced so they fly straight indicate that Nintendo did not intend for people to build flying machines out of only steering sticks and fans with no other support. But they made the physics engine TOO good, so it works, but it requires pixel perfect alignment. Also, fans DO disappear. But only after 30 minutes of continuous use. They last long enough that it's not ever an issue. Steering sticks never disappear.

This build actually does break. It just takes a very long time or maybe for some reason heat causes it to. I rode this design in the depths hunting for pristine weapons from the gerudo highlands, to underneath hebra mountains and to death mountain. Once I was under death mountain the wheels started glowing green and broke. I kinda doubt it's heat related just because I haven't seen that in any other instance. So I guess the fans just last a very very long time. I exhausted my full 16 batteries many many times over

My go to is two small wheels stuck side by side, stabilizer in the back and a stirring stick in the front. It's fast and doesn't drain batteries a lot, though it's not good for up hill travel.

This is the infamous "hover bike". It can even be used effectively in the underground by attaching a Large Brightbloom flower to the front of the bike (fuze an arrow with a Large Brightbloom bud, shoot it at the front of the bike, then quickly hit the bike with whatever weapon to prevent it from taking off without you). You'll then be able to fly around freely in the dark underground, and see where you are going. This helps with activating all of the Lightroots, avoiding monsters/mini-bosses/etc, locating poes, locating ore deposits, etc.

I spent two hours trying to build this stupid hover bike yesterday and it just simply will not work! Every single time it either drifts to one side or launches me backwards. What am I doing wrong? 😭

Whoever thought we'd have a flying mount that lasts in Zelda? So awesome.

This “air bike” will be huge for speed running, especially with rockets.

For anyone not having much battery just dupe the large zonai charges... Don't even need that many, duping the hylian shield and fusing it to another helps you duplicate items anywhere without worrying about breaking the shield (it already lasts alot)

I exclusively only use this bike. It's literally god vehicle.

I was really, excited, hearing about the device drop glitch I went right on to try it. I eventually found the same spot used in the vid to try this. Sadly, I did not get it to work, so perhaps a software update patched this glitch 😢.

“You don’t need that much battery ever” ..yeah when you have the full zonaite armor set lol. Most don’t

I've had that saved for days, but I have been using another version of this but uses 2 more fans attached to the sides and a big battery on the bottom of the steering stick. It's more expensive but with duping it's free 😂. It goes 2x as fast as well as having the big battery it has enough power to go from one side of the map to the other.

In early game before you have a lot of energy cells, you can attach a big battery to the back fan and it will get you extremely far. Just swap it out when it runs out!

i spend about 40 minutes nonstop to try and make a double fanned flying vehicle that have only 2 fans infront and behind. absolutely 0 chance i can make it fly straight. the only way for me is to have 1 fan infront and 2 at the back, only then it goes straight, i fkn glued my eyes to monitor trying to put fans exactly opposite to each other, no luck, and it is swaying to the side so annoyingly when i fly...

It's a perfect one person vehicle But for transporting a korok or a green stone is better to use use 4 fans and a wood board

"It's going to disappear"? What are you talking about, eyebrows? This vehicle that everyone has already covered never despawns.

Trying to fly these with only one battery is so annoying. I just keep landing in gloom it goes flying down a hill and using the reverse time hand is tricky

this was the easiest guide i have seen for this device!!! tysm 🥰 the others were somehow too complex for me to actually make LOL

I've seen this vehicle in a few videos so I decided to give it a try. It works great. Especially if I need to get somewhere far but don't want to walk all the way or fast travel. My battery's still pretty low, so I just used the duplication glitch to get a bunch of large zonai charges.

I built one like this but it could only go up this helps so much.

I added two lights to the sides of the steering stick so I can see in the dark. It doesn't sacrifice movement and you can see where your going.

the other version you can do is the "Green Goblin" one where you attach the fans on the side instead. This gives a bit more stability by sacrificing turning ratio. You can also attach things under the steering stick to carry them.

Personally, I find the side by side one better. It’s harder to get right, but it goes straight up with the stick full back, and fully horizontal with the stick at neutral. Still Carries a korok, or batteries, etc. I find it turns tighter and is easier to mount/dismount for quick descents without crashing.

I really like this design. There were a lot of hastily pushed out videos promoting the horizontal "green goblin" and I wasn't a fan. This seems much better.

When I get around to grabbing auto build. I'll put one of these together. Already been messing about with the small wheels. That's a fun land build.

BOMB DUPLICATION!!!! for anyone who doesn't know, you can use the parachute method to duplicate the bombs using water, so long as you're not too high above the water.

if you have too much energy just go adding more things like a light a turret or something like that

I've seen this a week ago. It's incredibly useful in the depths

Not sure for anyone else but I feel like they patched the glitch where you put the materials on your bow and duplicate it with another bow, it hasn't been working for me

Ive never had those parts disappear, only ever the wing thing. Also that much battery because there are bigger machines you can make that will burn that out like its nothing.

I have such a hard time steering this thing 😂

This thing helped me get half the lightroots on the map in just a few hours. It was especially easy to navigate the depths once I slapped a giant brightbloom to its hood. I figure it's going to help me reach everything else including sky shrines.

Does not work. Don't try it. U'll end up wasting ur resources

Holy heavens your maxed out almost completely on every item, that's insane. Props

the fans and stick do not disappear making this even better then anything else

Where is the location of the place where you duplicate the items? And does it still work today?

Just tried to duplicate the Zonai devices like you said and they must have patched it because it didn't work.

biggest tip of this video? aparently you can stack better charges! I'm only on 8 normal ones! back to the mines

Getting these things perfectly aligned has always been a struggle for me. Luckily, it really doesn't need to be "perfect" to still be extremely useful.

Thanks for video, can you make the 1000+ damage weapon Glitch in the previous video. I did not understand the comment about the display weapon

I tried to double my devices I went to the same place you did and it didn't work I followed ever step

I love how creative this game allows us to be!!!

Props to the cat for walking in front of the cam. Mine does that all the time.

4:57 lol talk about the vehicle you'll ever need haha

I have recently been using a small wheel with a cart in the back with the steering stick on it,but it's kinda not needed

when you get 5-6 batteries, add a fan directly under the other fans itll be more stable and itll lift off faster.

I ❤️ YIGA clans design blue prints Are they worth their weight in gold to hit the YIGA clans hideouts in the depths It is true it takes more batteries What is your thoughts about that ❓

The duplicate trick doesn't work. I've tried it exactly as described.

This is a cool device. Thanks to the creator. I attached two glowing seeds to the fans and it's great to use in caves. (only took a long time to collect)Thanks for the video

Great explanation! So many of these tutorials assume that I know a bunch of things. This was super clear!

Thanks! This helped me get around a problem to get somewhere in the main story without having a skill I hadn't unlocked yet lol

I put two more fans on either side of the bike so it turns faster also has extra lift for carrying things.

Its so stupid that the Glider for example destroys itself after 1min15seconds of glide time. I hope they patch that out someday or through a dlc to make it last longer / unlimited / add more stuff and such they need to do even more with the building parts! :D

when you take out your zonai devices, press y and b simultaneously and it won’t take the devices from your inventory so there is no need to dupe

If anyone wants to use the wing without it despawing after one stupid minute, I have the solution! I would really only recommend this to either post game players or people who do all the side stuff before progressing the story. Attach 6 fans to a wing. 1 on each wing tip, 1 on either side of the tail end, and 1 on either side of the front beak. Make sure all 6 fans are at the up and forward angle. (Dont forget a steering stick :3 ) With 6 fans and being in those particular spots, the fans generate enough lift that the wing does not use the glide mechanic. It works and if you have enough Zonai charges it can fly indefinitely.
