Frequently asked questions

How do I get a Hang Glider?
Craft a hang glider using the recipe found in your crafting menu, then equip it from your inventory. Unlike an elytra, it goes in a separate slot and won't take up your chestplate armor.
How do I use the Hang Glider?
Equip the hang glider, jump off a high surface (like a cliff or tower), and you'll begin gliding. Use your mouse to control pitch and direction while airborne.
Can I wear armor while using the Hang Glider?
Yes, the hang glider doesn't occupy your chestplate slot, so you can wear full armor including a chestplate while gliding.
How do I make my Hang Glider faster?
Reinforce your hang glider using the reinforcement recipe to increase its speed and flight performance.
What's the difference between this and an elytra?
The hang glider lets you keep your chestplate armor, has more natural flight controls, and doesn't require firework rockets to stay airborne—just jump and glide.
Do I need a specific height to start gliding?
You need to be high enough that you won't hit the ground during your glide; jumping from a tall cliff or structure works best.
Can I glide indefinitely or do I eventually fall?
You'll gradually lose altitude while gliding, so you'll eventually land or need to find higher ground to continue flying.
Does the Hang Glider work in multiplayer?
Yes, the hang glider works in multiplayer servers as long as the server has the mod installed.
What should I do if my Hang Glider feels sluggish or unresponsive?
Make sure you're using the correct control keys for pitch and direction, and check that your mouse sensitivity settings aren't interfering with flight controls.
Can I repair a damaged Hang Glider?
You can craft a new hang glider or reinforce your existing one to restore its performance and durability.
