Better Flight aims to improve vanilla Elytra flight mechanics.

This mod allows you to flap your wings to take off and fly in exchange for hunger, reducing the need for firework rockets.

Features include a HUD widget that shows your flight stamina and your Elytra's durability, as well as an easy take-off feature via sprint + double jump.
