After completing the hike through the power plant, you will arrive at the TV monitor. You may have come back from your star ship through the teleport. The repair-bot is waiting to escort Ratchet through the power plant to the damaged switch. Note that he hits himself in the head every once in awhile. Too funny! Stand on the arrow platform, hit [X] and start the momentum glider. The repair-bot will fly ahead, showing the route.
|
 |
This is a tight course so have your wits about you and concentrate. TRY NOT TO OVERSTEER! The glider does not react to turns as quickly as you may think, so anticipate the climb or dive or turn, ahead of time. You can climb or dive between the X braces. In the narrow hallways, avoid the pipes and smoothly glide past the entrance where Ratchet first came in. Should you happen to hit an obstacle, you'll return to the start area by the teleport.
|
 |
The toughest section is through the circular tunnels. Again, don't oversteer and start a gentle turn or dive before it comes up. You may have to do this 2-3 times to know the bends and turns in the course. Once through the tunnels, Ratchet flies through the last room with the X braces. Fly up through the openings in the braces, then land on the far platform. The repair-bot will go inside the back room and vanish.
|
 |
There is nothing in the back room. Against the far wall is a broken switch. Use the Electrolyzer and repair the circuit. The blue sparks are quite fast and I found this puzzle tough for some reason. There are a couple of times where you need to keep the connectors flipped in one direction while 2-3 sparks travel up the grid. Once complete, the power will be restored and a new teleport pad will appear, where you first landed with the glider. Teleport back to the TV.

Pay the 10,000 bolts and watch the transmission. This is a secret transmission seen for the first time. The scientist warns about the dangers of the protopet and that the experiment is now out of control and should be destroyed. They contact Fizzwidget and warm him about the danger. They decide to meet at the Disposal Facility on Hrugis Cloud. Fizzwidget has a hard time remembering the security password?
|
 |
On the way there, Ratchet tries the password. Of course it fails, and trips the security inside the disposal facility. There are a number of fighter combat missions inside the dome to blow up the security drones. The 4th challenge is to try and defeat Ace Bunyon through the ring course. Fly through all 65 rings without missing one, and there's a platinum bolt at the end. Continue on to Planet Joba after you're done.
|
After completing the momentum glider mission, restoring power to the TV monitor, come back inside the power plant. Time to get a platinum bolt. Glide down through the power plant, to the very last room with X braces. High up between one of the braces is a hovering bolt. Be carfeul when you fly up to get it. It's in a trickey spot.
