These repulsorpacks are way better than a standard jetpack, but are so much more expensive. It's worth every credit.

The A-11 Coruscant Police Repulsor Pack was a personal transportation device used by Coruscant Police Forces during the Clone Wars and into the Galactic Civil War. It offered a great degree of mobility in the air, for the Police, though often at the personal risk of the user.
Characteristics[]
Repulsorpacks were often worn on the back, much like its predecessor the Jetpack. They lasted longer than the Jetpack, and have the ability to hover in place using unique repulsor technology. A-11 Coruscant Police Repulsor Packs were controlled by a wrist-mounted device, but Ontuse Karaane fitted his to work through verbal commands issued into his visor in his helmet. To launch, a repulsorpack funneled both air and fuel through miniaturized turbines. In the device's intake system, the air-fuel mix was ignited, providing the thrust needed to propel the wearer through the air. The launch of most repulsorpacks wasn't accompanied by a cloud of exhaust, like the jetpacks are known for. This is useful when trying to make a quick escape without being noticed.
In flight, directional exhaust nozzles controlled the user's flight path, while a gyrostabilizer counterbalanced the repulsorpack's velocity for descent. Repulsorpacks were considered impractical for public use, but are better suited than jetpacks. Downsides to the repulsorpack's agility included the device's thirty-kilo weight, and the fact that most models could carry enough fuel for around twenty bursts of thrust.
