Elytra Pitch

Elytra Pitch is a Minecraft mod that helps players fly more efficiently with elytra. By maintaining a pitch angle of around 40 degrees, players can glide much farther while using fewer rockets. The mod adds a customizable HUD that displays your current pitch during elytra flight, along with an indicator for the optimal angle.

Several optional features include an in-game settings menu via Mod Menu for extensive customization, as well as support for accessory mods like Elytra Slot that use Trinkets or Accessories. Additional HUD elements can be enabled to display yaw, altitude, speed, direction, and elytra durability.

Elytra Pitch also offers optional keybindings for assisted flight, allowing players to lock their pitch or snap to the optimal angle. This functionality revives and expands on the now-unmaintained FlightHelper mod.
