Powered Jetpacks
by Konhaiii
Powered Jetpacks gives players a jetpack that draws on stored energy to lift them into the air, and it works on Fabric for 1.21.1.
What it does
Energy-powered jetpacks are added to the game, in a basic and an advanced tier. Each tier has its own maximum power capacity, charge rate, vertical speed, horizontal speed and energy cost per tick, and the values can be adjusted in a config file found in the .minecraft/config folder. A jetpack with its energy cost set to 0 keeps flying even without power.
Power and flight status are shown in a HUD text in the top left corner, so the remaining charge can be read while flying. The mod is meant to keep players from falling to their death when they plan a long drop or a sudden fall.
Installation needs Fabric API. Sodium and Trinkets are optional and are not required for the jetpacks to work. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Files cover 1.20.1, 1.20.2, 1.20.3, 1.20.4 and 1.21.1, and the latest Fabric file is 1.1.0 for 1.21.1, published 2026-04-06. The mod is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial 4.0 license, so it is not open source, though its source code and issue tracker are public.
