Modular Power Suits question

[Lonewolf187]

Hello everyone:
I recently started getting into the Modular power suits. I am really enjoying the way the siuts are set up, however I recently got the jet-pack and rocket boots, and I dont think their performance matches other flight methods. All pieces of my armor have the HV capacitors for energy storage and forcefield generators for the armor, and I have the rocket boots and jetpack set to max as well as the jump assist and flight computer for the helmet, and I dont fly nearly as fast as my Electric jet-pack. Am I doing something wrong or do I have the wrong components installed? The Legs have the jump assist and walking assist maxed out.

You are overweight.... Remove all but 2 of your batteries. Weight penalties start at 25 and get noticeable about 30.

make sure all parts are turned on ( press K for setting it up)

Like Peppe said, check your weight. Flight performance should be very good compared to Jet Packs (I feel flight control to be a little wonky. but that could just be me). Also try adding sprint assist, it seems to increase flight speed.

Agreed, and because weight effects flight, I suggest simply sticking with run/walk assist, jump assist, and use the portal long fall boots (if you're using a modpack).

I run elite battery in boots and legs (10kg each) and kinetic generator in legs (4kg), add solar generator to helm (0kg) to have a total power capacity of 10Mj. My suit is fully loaded (apart from jet boots and plasma cannon (too slow) and barely loses power due to the 2 power regen modules.

You're doing something wrong. Check out my post here : http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/thr...st-using-modular-powersuit.16948/#post-200766
