Hey does anyone know how to move faster in the air with meckanisms jetpack? Its just really slow. Or a good beginning/mid game flying item to replace it?
Its taking a long ass time to charge, is there any way to speed it up?

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!
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!
The iron jetpacks mod has some great jetpacks that aren’t that expensive, if you hover over them in JEI and hold shift, it shows all the stats on them.
This tripped me up too, but genuinely any mid tier jet pack from iron jetpacks will outpace gliders any day. They’re stupid fast.
I got the player transmitter and the binding card (dimensional)3 wind and one advance solar panel but it’s still pretty slow to charge up my jetpack, could I have some help of what generators I should use and what setups I need, to make it go faster please.
When I am flying with the jetpack, and try to land, i die instantly, even with a "soft" landing. Anybody else have this issue?
edit: I should mention this is ATM 1.10
