This is an example of how simply you can make an efficient aircraft if you possess both an Infinity Wing & Infinity Balloon.

These can be weaponised but at the cost of battery durability.

I've done faster perimeter flights but the faster you go the more screen freezing there is so this is more pleasant viewing I suppose.
Hero's Path is provided in as real-time as I can manage with Filmora 13.
The Ultrabroken glitch is used on the Wing which allows it to fly at around 200 mph and also stops it from expiring. It doesn't require a Wing or Steering Stick to get these results, you can pretty much use what you like. I used a Wing to confirm it wouldn't despawn.

As usual the extra weight improves descension at the cost of ascension so I didn't really bother going into that. This answers other questions such as: - Does it stick-proof the hoverbike? - How is landing/taking off affected? - Can it take off from water? - Does the Mk 1 hoverbike stand better?
seesawSimple Unpowered Raft Featuring the LOG ROLL DRIVE in Tears of the KingdomKing-X2024-05-23 | This features a powerless raft using a spinning sail mast to spin a pair of logs like paint rollers which surprisingly grip water really well and let you achieve speeds to rival a propeller without actually needing a propeller!
One downside with this is making the build even wider which makes it ideal for open waters only. it also steers "when it wants to" but you can bypass that by releasing the steering stick for a moment to reboot.
I tried getting this to work on land but it's poor for that. It doesn't seem too fussy about which logs you use. There is a large diversity of logs in the game and I tried a couple with similar results. Ideally you would perhaps want short thick logs to reduce the width as much as you can. Then again too much weight slows down the spin and there are some pretty heavy logs so that's something to consider. The logs used here are right near where I got the sail on the coast a little south of Lurelin Village so that's a convenient place to build this. The main materials are the sail, logs and steering stick. You can try alternative "hull" materials if you wish such as the float from Jonsau shrine.
This sail car is very delicate to carry with Ultrahand, the sails can easily separate. I don't yet see this as a great breakthrough as use is still restrictive but we're potentially on the verge of it.

This prototype model works only in shallow water but land possibilities are being looked into. This can travel fast enough to achieve star trail speeds. Left and right are inverted but aside from that, the handling is quite nice. Acceleration is quite slow so it takes time to pick up good speed.
Unlike with typical "powerless" builds you don't need the steering stick sideways and steering is quite normal aside from left and right being inverted.

A number of videos have already shown this battle but I didn't see one which shows the build or guides through what's going on so I decided to do one which covers that.
You can optimise this further, I didn't really bother changing the accessories but she's tough so you should probably look at those if your party is weaker.
On Normal you must deal 1573 damage. On Hard you must deal 1699 damage. Hakugin was just in the party based on other videos but I may as well have kept Mellore from my main party as she could have done extra dark damage. I could have switched out the weakest links with my healers as they can equip dark runes. The battle would have been a joke!
Another option is to put her to sleep in the 1st turn then she won't defend in the 2nd turn.

I didn't think a small wheel could spin with a railing attached to it (or I may have some up with something like this myself).
The railing is subject to catching on things but that's the main issue. It climbs well, can chasm-dive (though you need to hold back for that) and has very little weight aside from that of the wheel itself so this is about as good a performance as you can get from a small wheel without using a see-saw.

As it turns out, this one is even better! In this build I add a cannon to aid climbing and provide speed bursts. It's an optional addition as it does effectively disable reversing and complicates some other tasks but this particular minecart is ideal for granting protection from the blast with its high rear end. (It also has a high front end.)

A battery is attached to the launcher for 2 main reasons; 1) to increase the active distance before the launcher shuts off in the event of a failed launch, and 2) to not have battery icons on-screen.
I did see this done on Hyrule Engineering a while ago but have little memory of the build aside from it having a see-saw in it. I've noticed the best way to turn it off is to use Recall first otherwise the force of the see-saw plays some havoc.

Whether it actually does depends on which part of the see-saw hits them, the tip being preferable. Also slowing down the spin impedes the damage multiplier. Mostly though you're getting 1-shot results.
My mistake here was ploughing straight into them centrally. I should have been a bit more to the side so the tip gets them.
Build is not a serious recommendation, just a bit of fun. I've shown more simple and reliable bump damage builds before. This is just my own little go at it.

This is the version I was trying to make in the first place, I just didn't get it right the first session but that wound up with me making 2 railing versions so it worked out.
This is able to climb very steep terrain including VERTICAL WALLS though you have to set it in position for the latter so the wheel can connect.
Recommended if you want minimum parts or find the blind spot of the SLIM version distracting. Also recommended if you want the narrowest version. This performs worse on vertical walls than the SLIM but it can still do it including in reverse.

Brightbloom seeds which are ACTIVATED are the second-best thing to use after dragon parts. Dragon parts all despawn at the same distance but horns provide the best light so you may as well use a dragon horn, or a giant brightbloom seed if you don't have dragon parts yet.
These are things which have been said for months but I finally got around to testing it myself to confirm and showing you actual footage.
It's common knowledge that dragon parts are best and they're reputed to not spawn within 2000 meters. How accurate is that distance? Are all dragon parts the same? Those questions are answered here! Other items are tested primarily for people early-game who are in less position to amass dragon parts yet.
The final test does not actually compare dragon parts as they're all attached to 1 build.
Brightbloom seeds actually have a much better radius when activated, probably around the 700-900m range, it's hard to test because they disappear from view BEFORE despawning. (That might need a dedicated video.)

It's said that Star fragments prevent your build from despawning. Is it true?

2 caveats: My original version does NOT do this; only this SLIM version. Also this will only do it if you set the wheel against the wall otherwise the wheel can't connect with the wall.
This climbs excellently, turns well, can glide downhill, can move through water and only uses 5 parts. It can be made with 4 but the railing helps with better stabilizing which reduces the number of issues - though the railing makes it less compact so there's that trade-off.
Eutropius requires pulling back gliding downhill and also sensible control in water or you will wipe out so it's a bit advanced on that front but those are things quite easy to observe and it performs well as long as you're on top of that. I could make it better in that regard but it'd probably need more parts which is what I want to avoid.
The video also features an air/land/water cart which can fly virtually level in neutral.

I think I like this method best. I'm not really keen on the shield methods: A wing shield only lets you jump high enough for 1 bullet time shot and you would require more than 1 rocket shield. I have tried them before, they do work but using the landscape is more fun for me here.

(REVISED version as the original used a non-early-game chasm. This uses a different chasm, thanks to my informant!)
For this route you need a means to fly but only near the end and the trip is short so you can use less broken means to get there if you wish.
I make this journey on a rail hoverbike but take a route you should have little issue following.
You should be able to use this route as soon as you have Autobuild (see link below for getting that) and have the means to fly fairly short distances. Actually you should be able to paraglide directly to the Right Leg Depot as you reach the lightroot from high ground. The guide assumes you haven't already activated that light root and need lighting. Early-game you would likely need stamina food for the glide.
See pinned comment for an alternative solution to reaching the Right-Leg Depot without a regular aircraft. There are hover stones and rockets on-site!

This build can glide but not fly. The creator argues that with 2 extra fans it could fly but would just be a hoverbike with more parts. It handles mild/moderate climbing and is very stable on the water.
This is suitable for flats and very minor slopes and is a bit like driving a "slightly less fast" base electric car. I'm sharing it more as an interesting engineering concept or if you want something that looks cool.
The original model has the extra attachment of the left small wheel to the left wagon wheel so it's possible my performance suffers a bit for the lack of that better holding the wheel against the flux core but a clever trick is required to pull that off which most won't bother with.
With this you have an energy-efficient, part-efficient simple car with no need for advanced techniques, glitchy parts or much skill to make!
The main thing to watch out for is levelness when building. It's very easy to attach the front wheel in a non-level position to the rear ones. I tried that and performance seemed to take a dip so I suggest making sure they're level.
The wheel is on the front for better weight balance. I tried the configuration in reverse and didn't like the result much. I did also try with wheels tipped in various ways and got worse results with those as well in terms of the tests in this video.

This is simply 4 small wheels with a steering stick! Nintendo's own in-game description states that small wheels aren't good with hills or bumps.
What small wheels don't like is lots of weight so they aren't suited for tank builds but they can be fine for traversal.
I used 4 wheels for stability. I've shown it before with 1 climbing a harder slope than this.

Climb Stupidly Steep Terrain With a See-Saw Unicycle in TotKKing-X2024-04-10 | The 1 wheeler Speedsaw has been optimised with a lighter see-saw and places the steering stick further back. The result is not only the insane climbing capacity powered by JUST 1 small wheel but I find turning more stable and you still get that extreme energy/part efficiency. This only requires 3 parts and 1 battery cell takes 3:20 to drain without the Zonai Set.
This is the greatest wheel build I've replicated or made to date which climbs better than anything I've ever seen (so far) that DOESN'T have air gust assistance (eg; fans/propellers).
Pros: - Great at uphill AND downhill! - Extremely energy-efficient. - Only 3 parts. - Turning is improved. - Very compact. - Pendulum sway effect is much improved. - Self-corrects standing position.
Cons: - Requires quantum-linked see-saw. - Minimum 3 zonaite. - Not for water. - Not ideal tank material. - A bit weird to build. Mine falls apart unless I use a zonaite wheel for some reason.
The Green Cart is powered by only 1 small wheel and without the Zonai Set you can drive for 3:20 on a single battery cell (or over 6 minutes with it) before needing to recharge.
This build is so simple I wouldn't be surprised if many people have "invented" various versions of it before months ago but I've never seen it and had to come up with it myself. (Then again maybe they're too busy making more sophisticated stuff...)
Whereas it's true that you can make hover bikes and such which let you go pretty much anywhere, dual fans are an energy hog on the single battery cell you have that early in the game.
This is very quick and easy to make; so easy you hardly even need to "favourite" it unless you plan on going around without the parts.
Most vehicles with 1 small wheel require a stabilizer which consumes more power than a 2nd small wheel and hinders movement. This needs no stabilizer nor 2nd wheel!
After making this I did find a video with a similar build but it had the wheel tilted up and the control stick at the back. During my testing for this particular build the wheel climbed better this way.

This provides better water functionality, it now has multiple modes in the water and is very stable. I was unable to capsize Link during water exploration in my tests even with Link fully submerged. Additionally it handles certain cliff diving better.
Climbing may take a hit with 1 less fan although that's also less overall weight. Consider this a more minimalistic version of the Turbo Trike; I still recommend the original model as far as land travel is concerned. This version only uses 5 parts (0-15 zonaite).

How to get see-saws & other ghost shrine items: youtube.com/watch?v=rhJJdRcP9rU Playlist: youtube.com/watch?v=EAK3wdqJUM4&list=PLoBdFj1THOCzc_uuk9BMfzEwAeOBtbO02&pp=gAQBiAQBVanilla Amphibious TURBO TRIKE Climber Using ONLY Zonai Devices in Tears of the KingdomKing-X2024-04-06 | This Turbo Trike uses 6 Zonai Device parts. It doesn't require any ghost shrine items nor even smuggled items such as other shrine/depths parts. Thus you can make this with 0 zonaite if you have the Zonai parts onhand! Without the parts it'll cost a maximum of 18 zonaite though if you add the Light the creator uses then you're looking at 21.
This motorcycle lets you ride on water though you need to switch to reverse steering in the deep. It somewhat glides down from cliff jumps but as it uses 3 heavy small wheels it's still possible to be ejected on more challenging jumps. Climbing is excellent by vanilla standards though it's at a bit of a disadvantage to certain see-saw builds and such. Though climbing would probably fare better switching out the fans for a propeller solution you'd lose considerable speed that way.

It's stable in land, air and water environments and tends to stabilize itself even if you capsize it or drop it out of the air. The downsides are the higher zonaite cost, extra part/s and being less compact to fit through smaller spaces, as well as needing railing which isn't an early-game item. If you're after high performance though, this is an excellent candidate!
In addition to quantum-linking the see-saw to the fan I also slightly stake-nudged the steering stick to a wider angle to better fit the fan. I didn't quite complete that job according to the original showing but it's close enough for an impressive result.
LIMITATIONS: Will not climb ABSOLUTELY vertical things (at least my one doesn't) nor does it climb in-facing cliff curves (which is to be expected, you'd probably need a gimbal which would add parts). Case in point; regarding the climb at the start near my house, it climbs at some parts and not others. Still, that is really steep and it laughs at anything less! It DOES climb "almost vertical" cliffs.
As to whether it's greater than the Master Cycle Zero (which no such claim was made about), do let me know! Personally I'm considering keeping it.

Playlist: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLoBdFj1THOCzc_uuk9BMfzEwAeOBtbO02Final Fantasy VII Rebirth - How to Wrangle Selena the Ocean Chocobo in NibelKing-X2024-03-30 | Selena is a blue chocobo with the ability to swim and launch/glide in the air with "chocojet". In a nutshell, in addition to swimming Selena can fly ad lib with "chocojet" as long as it's over water and there's a nerfed land version of the ability which allows shorter launches where there's no water.
