It also has a Hover Mode, which can be toggled by pressing the M key while in use (i.e. holding down the jump key). In Hover Mode, holding the jump key will make the player ascend slowly, and the jetpack will automatically slow the player's fall to a similar speed.

May 5, 2014 - Call it bump, call it giving an answer, whatever... The Simply Jetpacks mod actually addresses the issue of "creative flight" type hover. The highest tier jetpack gives you such a slow hover decay, it almost feels like you are hovering in place.

Minecraft Mekanism How to Turn Off Hover Mode Jetpack - SynthronAI
1 month ago - Hover Mode locks your player in an elevated position while flying. On one hand, it keeps you from plummeting to the ground, which is great. But on the other hand, it can be a real hassle when you want to land or maneuver through tight spaces. I’m a fan of Mekanism because it introduces so much without overwhelming beginners. The Jetpacks give you an edge for exploration, and it pairs well with automation and energy systems I regularly set up in my worlds.

r/allthemods on Reddit: [ATM6] Good ways for fast flight? Mid-tier
January 18, 2021 -

I'm looking for good ways to fly around. I have the Mekanism jetpack but I want something like the Open Gliders gives you (really miss it and may just add it to my server with ATM6).

I think the Mekanism armor lets you run fast and there are items in Blood Magic and Botania that let you run fast but anything that lets you fly fast like the glider would?

EDIT: Iron jetpacks is the way to go. After making the Mekanism jetpack I assumed the other jetpacks would function the same. With a tier 4 jetpack from Iron Jetpacks I am zipping around everywhere. Perfect. Thank you all!

r/Yogscast on Reddit: A note about the Mekanism Jetpacks they are using
August 15, 2014 -

It seems that they are all opting for the Mekanism jetpacks in their series' instead of the simply jetpacks option. The issue with this is that The armored version of the mekanism jetpacks are currently broken and don't provide any armor at all even though it puts the indicator on the armor bar. This leaves them very vulnerable and is a big issue as far as taking dungeons goes. You end up taking a lot of damage (espesially from the archers I've found) that should be mitigated. This is seen a lot in the Flux Buddies series with u/Yogscastlalna and u/YogscastKim

What they should be using are Armored Resonant Jetpacks. These are slightly more expensive to build, but they use RF as fuel and their armor is a diamond chestplate's worth of armor an is not broken! I've found this makes you feel much more invincible as you would expect from such an expensive armor item.

Cheers!
