Spawn Elytra Fabric
by Skaimbauer
Spawn Elytra Fabric lets players start flying with an elytra from a configurable start area near world spawn, using a double tap of the spacebar.
What it does
Players can begin flight by double-tapping the spacebar while standing inside the start area, which is centered on world spawn by default. Inside that area a player is invulnerable, and landing is protected for 20 ticks after touchdown so a hard landing does not cause damage right away. While flying, pressing the spacebar gives a boost in the direction the player is looking.
The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing anything and only the server runs it. It targets Fabric alone, with builds for 1.21.9, 1.21.10, 1.21.11, 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2 and 26.2, and the latest file of 1.2.1 is for 26.2. It is released under the MIT License and is open source. The size and position of the start area are set with commands.
Key features
Double-tap flight start
A double tap of the spacebar inside the start area begins flight, so players do not need to launch from a height.
Start area invulnerability
Players inside the configurable start area cannot take damage, which keeps a takeoff safe.
Landing protection
Protection lasts 20 ticks after landing, covering the moment when a player touches down.
Looking-direction boost
While airborne, a tap on the spacebar propels the player along the line of sight.
Command configuration
The start area and related settings can be changed with commands, without editing files.

Use cases
Spawn flight hub
A server can keep a flying start point at world spawn, where players take off without a launch ramp.
Who it’s for: Server owners who want players to start elytra flight from a fixed, protected area, and anyone who wants a controlled spawn takeoff on a Fabric server.
How it compares
Spawn Elytra - like in Craft Attack is an MIT License open source mod for Fabric covering 1.20 – 26.3. Endless Elytra is also server-side only and open source under the MIT License, published for Fabric across 1.21.1 – 26.2, and it handles flight differently. Elytra Indicators is client-side only, licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and covers 1.21.8 – 26.3, so it does not replace a server flight start area.
