You might know this feature from CraftAttack - this is exactly the same, but better!

A Minecraft plugin that enables elytra-like flight mechanics at spawn without requiring actual elytra wings. Double-jump to soar through the air and boost yourself with the F key!

Enhanced with features inspired by blax-k's SpawnElytra implementation

Features

  • Double-jump to fly - Activate elytra gliding anywhere within the spawn radius
  • Enhanced boost mechanics - Press F (Java) or Sneak (Bedrock) to get a speed boost while flying
  • Bedrock/Geyser compatible - Full support for Bedrock Edition players via GeyserMC
  • World-specific - Configure which world the feature works in
  • No fall damage - Players won't take damage while using the elytra
  • Lightweight - Minimal performance impact with efficient event handling
  • Sound effects - Configurable boost sounds for better feedback
  • Admin commands - /spawnelytra reload and /spawnelytra info
  • Permission system - Fine-grained control over who can use what features
  • Anonymous metrics - Optional bStats integration (can be disabled in config)
