The Electric Jetpack is a simpler, more easily recharged, and otherwise mostly superior version of the conventional Jetpack. Flying is performed by holding down the jump key.
The Electric Jetpack is limited to a maximum flying height of ~185 meters (blocks) above the bedrock layer. For comparison, the normal Jetpack is limited to ~245 meters above bedrock.
When the next version of Gravitation Suite gets added to the modpacks we will have:
So I know there are a lot of people who want this and also quite a few that are fine with the Electric Jetpack. I like the idea but at the same time I'm one of those people avoiding the Gravichest because of everything it offers. I probably did my math wrong but it looks like 2 hours of usage in hover mode.
I'm just curious about how some people feel about this addition and whether or not they intend to use it.

ChangeLog of Gravitation Suite 1.7:
+ Added new cool item "Advanced Jetpack"
-> energy storage 1 000 000 eu.
-> can charge at MFE, MFSU
-> overlocked engine - max height now limit to 256 ! (energy consumption 50% more than standard Electric Jetpack)
-> supplies with energy your electrotool (as drill, saw, laser and etc..)
-> can enable and disable jetpack engine for your convenience ("Fly" key)
-> boost mode (energy consumption x5 more)
-> advanced visual indication of charge state and work mode (you can change work mode by shift "Space bar" and press "Mode key" )
