Top 3 flying machines in Minecraft

The flying machine is one of the best redstone discoveries in Minecraft. It allows for almost infinite flight and can be expanded upon to become more useful and resource-efficient. A basic flying machine is also quite easy to build.

When the slime block was released in update 1.8 of Minecraft Java Edition, many players realized that it would pull other blocks along with it when pushed by a piston. This discovery led to the creation of flying machines, which are basically just multiple blocks held together by slime blocks.

Listed below are three of the best flying machines ever created in Minecraft.

Most flying machines in Minecraft travel quite slowly and are often not worth their building time.

With this in mind, popular Minecraft content creator ilmango decided to speed things up a bit. His flying contraption travels faster than a walking player.

While that may seem underwhelming at first, players must understand the power of flying machines. These machines have the ability to travel almost infinitely. This means the player can sit back and relax while the machine takes them wherever they want to go.

ilmango's quicker-than-average flying machine is a fantastic way to explore the Minecraft world without having to worry about the dangerous terrain and mobs that come with it. The machine even features a minecart which will prevent the player from accidentally stepping off mid-flight.
