Jetpacks are the main feature of the mod, of course! All information about jetpacks is listed here.

Features

Other than the obvious feature (flying), jetpacks can have a few other abilities.

Hover Mode

Jetpacks can be set to be in hover mode. By default, jetpacks let users fly upwards fast and allow them to freefall. In hover mode, users can't freefall, but instead slowly descend. Flying upwards is also slower in hover mode.
Higher tier jetpacks descend more slowly. By sneaking, useres can avoid this to descend faster.

Armor

Jetpacks may be armored using armor plating, to provide protection like a proper chestplate. Higher tier jetpacks have better protection values, but also require armor plating that is made from more expensive materials.

Particles

It is possible to change what particle type a jetpack emits, using particle customizers. Currently there are four possible particle types: default (flames and smoke), no particles, smoke only and rainbow smoke.

Safety

Higher tier jetpacks will save their users from falling to death. By default, the Reinforced Jetpack and anything better than that can do this. These jetpacks will also save their users from falling into the void. Note that lower tier jetpacks will NOT do this, unless configured otherwise!

Types

Currently, there are seven different jetpacks in the mod.

Tier 1 Jetpack (Leadstone / Conductive Iron)

A low-tier, cheap jetpack that is available early-game. It is not very fast, and doesn't last very long. Still, it's better than no flight at all.

Tier 2 Jetpack (Hardened / Electrical Steel)

An upgrade to the Tier 1 Jetpack. It is slightly faster and lasts a bit longer than the previous tier. It's available soon after the Leadstone Jetpack.

Tier 3 Jetpack (Reinforced / Energetic)

A significant improvement over the last two tiers. It flies a lot faster and lasts quite a bit longer. The flight is also a lot easier to control.

Tier 4 Jetpack (Resonant / Vibrant)

The best regular jetpack available in survival mode. It is even faster than the Tier 3 Jetpack, lasts for a very long time before needing a recharge and is very easy to control, to a point that it could be considered close to creative flight.

JetPlate (Flux-Infused / Dark Soularium)

Not a regular jetpack, but a combination of an armored Tier 4 Jetpack and an armored Tier 4 Flux Pack and a Flux-Infused Chestplate with added armor. Because of this, it offers flight, charging and a very good armor value. The flight is also even more stable than the Tier 4 Jetpack. Idle descent is completely nonexistent with this item, making flying with it almost exactly the same as creative flight, if not arguably better.

Creative Jetpack

As it name suggests, only available in creative mode. It is very similar to the Flux-Infused JetPlate, but it will never run out of power.

Tuberous Jetpack

A makeshift potato-powered jetpack. It's cheaper than the Leadstone Jetpack, but it has a little disadvantage...
