Your post-2.3 engineering checklist

Assuming that you will want to craft the new Field Repair Bot 110G, as well as the Flying Machine and, if you're a wealthy engineer (oxymoron, I know), the Turbo-Charged Flying Machine, you will have some prep-work in addition to gathering materials. For the bot, you will want to be revered with the Consortium and already have flight, as you will need to farm Gan'arg Analyzers in Blade's Edge Mountains.
If you are only crafting basic flight, you will want 350+ engineering skill, level 70, and expert riding skill. If you are looking to make your epic, you will need to make both mounts, as the original is used in crafting its successor. You will also be needing artisan riding skill and engineering 375. If you're not quite there yet, check out Lisa's guide to maxing out your engineering in order to be ready for patch day.
Now that you have all your Gnomish Battle Chickens in a row to make everything that is new, it's time to tackle the hefty list of ingredients.Here's my roundup of what you're going to need:
Items that require additional reagents
- Adamantite frame (3)
- Handful of fel iron bolts (20)
- Khorium power core (1 + 8 for epic flyer)
- Fel iron toolbox (1)
- Elemental seaforium charge (4)
- Elemental blasting powder (4) (for the seaforium charges)
- Fel iron casing (3) (for the fel iron toolbox and the seaforium charges)
- Felsteel stabilizer (8 for epic flyer)
- Felsteel bar (16)
Metals
- Eternium bar (32) or 64 eternium ore
- Khorium bar (3 + 24 for epic flyer) or 6/48 khorium ore
- Fel iron bar (107) or 214 fel iron ore. If you are not making your epic flyer, subtract 48 bars or 96 ore.
- Adamantite bar (18) or 36 adamantite ore
- Star wood (8) - seek out an enchanting supplier.
- Primal earth (6)
- Primal fire (1 + 9 for epic flyer)
- Hula girl doll (1) - try visiting Griftah!
- Mote of earth (2)
- Mote of fire (1)

Man - good week to be a miner.

The latest PTR version has the regular flying mount requiring 5 adamantite bars instead of the fel iron toolbox.
Also, the regular engineering flying mount requires 2 adamantite frames, not 3.

Also the Field Repair Bot 110g apparently has been updated to require 8 adamantite bars instead of the adamantite frame and no primal earths. Haven't been on the PTR to test that though.

I think that, when you mentioned what you'll need to get the schematic for the Field Repair bot 110g, you meant to say "Revered with Ogri'la" rather than Consortium... but as all you need to do is farm the Gan'Arg Analyzers, I think that realistically all you need is the ability to fly up there to kill 'em.
I know I'll be up there bright and early after the patch goes live!

@BigBearButt
The consortium rep is required for the Elemental seaforium charge recipe.

Hey cool you used my pic I submitted to wowhead.
Regardless what the mats are, I'm really looking forward to these engineering changes. Its been a long wait.

I figured the same, but the Charges are not BOP. Consortium rep is also mentioned in relation to the repair bot. (?) Going to scan the latest PTR notes..

I have the materials ready for my Epic Flying mount, and am ready to go farm Gan'arg Analyzers.
I also have made a 'kit' to sell to a engineer that wants the mount bad enough on patch day :p

do you have to be a engineer to have one of the flying mounts?
