Although the buzzer takes away a lot of the step by step enjoyment of the environment in the game it is a time management game changer.
Knowing the locations of the buzzers, mainly the re spawning buzzers near fast travel locations, is a very important key to the game.
1-(South) Khilana Bazaar. This will be available at the end of act 1 after doing Incursion. It is the most known location by all players fairly early in the game. It is on the side of the road just on the edge of town close to the all important fast travel location.
2-(South) Ghale Homestead. After you gain access to Ghale Homestead you can purchase a re spawning buzzer for this location. After the north is open you can fly through the pass and to the north from this location.
3-(North) Utkarsh.( Could someone please confirm that this is a re spawning buzzer ) I recently started a new play through and cant confirm myself. After I opened the north on my first play through I did most of the outposts and all of the towers before doing any of the main quest line that took you to Utkarsh. I slowly did most of this travel with the Ghale buzzer but this time I will do the first quest to Utkarsh right away before exploring the north if it is a re spawning buzzer.
EDIT= verified below Utkarsh is a re spawning buzzer
EDIT 2= After doing the key to the north and after doing the next main quest step Truth And Justice where you first go to Utkarsh there is not a re spawning buzzer on my game. I can fast travel and have a residence at this point. Maybe after The Valley Of Death / Take Cover.... I will update.
EDIT 2 UPDATE= I have now done the complete main quest line and have no Buzzer or truck or car or quad at Utkarsh. Fast travel and foot travel are my only way out of this location. I believe that I remember trucks etc here on my first shortly played play through I just didn't remember a re spawning buzzer. If this is just another lucky far cry 4 glitch for me then my edit 2 etc is worthless information for the readers of this thread. If it is a glitch for me then I have had enough. I started a 2nd play through because on my first one I was glitched out of the buzzsaw and now possibly this, if it is, on the second + no telling what else. GRRRR.
EDIT 2 UPDATE 2= Yes my game is glitched again. All of you normal players will have buzzers to repeatedly enjoy from Utkarsh, enjoy.
EDIT 3= Wow all of a sudden I have a normal Utkarsh with 2 BUZZERS.... Yes there is supposed to be 2 buzzers here for you to use throughout the North shortly after you open it. Amazing what a difference this makes to your playing of the game, now if only everyone got to enjoy it as it was intended....
4- Fortress locations.
I know for sure that the buzzer at Pagans fortress (North) re spawns and I assume the buzzers at the other fortress locations re spawn. ( Some one please verify )
EDIT=verified below all 4 fortress have re spawning buzzers. UPDATE I can also now verify that all 4 fortress have re spawning buzzers once they are taken over.
Please post any other known buzzer locations in this thread and if it is a re spawning location. Having a couple of pre fortress takeover re spawning buzzers near some spread out fast travel locations in the North like the Ghale and Khilana Bazaar in the South would be a nice time management bonus.
The buzzer is helpful but you also miss a lot of great things in the game by overuse. I know that I have flown over a lot of cool looking territory going from point A to point B with the buzzer. Doing the towers to the top as an example may be fast but some of the chests, posters, and the climbing the tower puzzle experience is lost. I like to fly close to the towers and fight, climb, explore my way through taking the signal over but the rush for the buzzsaw sometimes is too tempting. I also enjoy to just walk around the world when I am doing a hunting, chest, mask, letter, etc run.
edit=After I started this thread I found this map posted by another member that also has some helpful buzzer information.

Another way to speed things up is via a trainer by Fling. With that you can run anywhere at high speed. I think faster than the buzzer or car, but without having to find one, or having to get in and out of the vehicle, and in many cases run more in a straight line to your destination. You can turn the high speed on or off very easily. Also you can turn on super jump, and not have to grapple, if you become bored by that coolness after a few run throughs of the game.
In addition to 7 mentioned locations you can find copters all the time next to almost all "supply drop" mission locations (near towers), but no longer after the completion of a mission.
Other than that, I think they spawn at random places on the map, i.e. there is no permanent location you can always find a Buzzer except from those listed above.
Ubi have learned to program Murphy's Law into the game. At first I was always looking for the elusive hovercraft, that was nowhere to be found. Now that I've had my fun with it, I see them everywhere... I guess buzzers are the same, never there when you need them.
Off topic, but why is everyone like "yay, hovercraft!" every time we find one, yet it's such a lousy vehicle to be honest...
But seriously, buzzers are always at fortresses (sometimes they don't spawn, but just fast travel to the store/bedroom and they're back), and a fortress is never really far from anything. You fly anywhere pretty fast, it's a tiny "country".
Thanks, what a fool I was on my first play through doing all kinds of stuff in the north with the Gahle buzzer before touching the main quest line to Utkarsh...Originally Posted by trapezius1 Go to original post
