Portal 2 Hints
How do these "aerial faith plates" work?
1 of 4: They're used to go back and forth between the chamber's two large platforms.
2 of 4: The first one is on the platform you start on, near its other end. It's the large gadget with the blue circle on it and the three signs next to it.
3 of 4: All you have to do to use a faith plate is walk onto it. You don't need a running start, you don't have to jump, and you don't have to do any mid-air adjustments to land where you're supposed to.
4 of 4: The starting platform's faith plate will take you to the other platform, and its faith plate will take you back to the starting platform.
