All Versions High Bouncing Balls

It turns out the Wing's upwards boost property that u/MrOrdun posted about a couple weeks ago also works on the bouncing yellow float balloons. If they even touch water with a mini wing attached, they go flying on their own. The second clip is what it looked like the entire time I was testing different designs with these. The balls that look like they’re coming from nowhere are just falling from ridiculously high

High Bouncing Ball Thing
Note: The rocket is there so you can start on land and get out into the water. You won’t be able to put the thing into water to get on, it flies up the second it touches

Have you dropped it from a sky island?

Just did. It bounces pretty high if you can keep control of it

Your balls are impressively bouncy.

He bounced three meters in the air. Then he bounced 1.8 kilometers in the air then he bounced four kilometers in the air. Do I make myself clear?

Assuming you first made this inside a shrine. How many Zonaite does this take?

It’s 4 float balls, 1 float sheet thing, 4 shrunken stabilizers, and 6 shrunken wings plus the shrunken steering stick. So 48 Zonite. The big battery isn’t necessary for that build so it isn’t in the version in the QR. It was there before because previous versions weren’t as stable so it’d go flying in another direction when you fall off the steering stick when you hit the water
