Players have made tons of fantastic creations inLEGO Fortnite, but are you interested in knowing how to make a flying machine?
This is a fully working flying machine that allows you to not only fly high into the sky but steer as well. Here’s how to make it for yourself.
LEGO Fortnite: How to create a flying vehicle
While there are already a few different tutorials available online, I’m specifically going to base this guide on the work of YoutuberTamara89Gamingand their incredible build. It only took me around 10 minutes to create, so here’s how you can make a flying machine in LEGO Fortnite.
First off, you’ll want to make sure you have the required materials if you’re creating this in a survival world:
1. Laying the foundations
First off, place the six Granite Foundations in a tower on top of each other to act as a support for the build. The Dynamic Foundation then goes on top. Next, place four Rustic Railings like the image above. The two together on each side should havethree spaces between each other. For accuracy, use the arrow keys to nudge pieces into the correct spaces, as it’s important to make the perfect build.
After that, you’ll place down the two Plank Railings horizontally,three spaces away from the Rustic Railings. These next pieces are just supports, but their placements matter. The Umber Half Walls go in between the Rustic Railings like so, then you want to place the Rustic Beam 02 on each Rustic Railingright in the middle to make a “T” shape.
Finally, place one Rustic Beam 01 on the ends of each Rustic Beam 02. verify these willfit into the railings once you destroy the Umber Half Wallslater on, as they’ll drop right onto the foundation.

2. Thrusters and Switches
Now you can start placing the mechanical parts. On the opposite ends of each Rustic Beam 01,place a Small Thruster on each Rustic Beam 02. These will act as your turning Thrusters. The last four Thrusters will go under your Dynamic Foundation in each of the four corners. These will bring you into the air.
Next up, place one Activation Switch at the front, then two on top of each Rustic Beam 01. Now you canbreak the two Umber Half Walls holding them up, and if placed correctly, they’ll fall perfectly onto your flying machine between the fences.
After that, you want to cover them with the two Rustic Floors 01. Place them on top of both railings so you can only see the Activation Switches and Thrusters.
3. Balloons and legs
The last part of this build has you figure out whether you want long or short legs for when your machine lands. I went for theShort Landing Legs, comprised of the four Log Half Walls 01. They’ll go under your flying machine so it can rest on the ground. Finally, you may place the four balloons.
In the video, the YouTuber placed each balloon in the corners of the Dynamic Foundation. For some reason, my two back corners were covered, but my machine still worked when I placed the two evenly at the back. attempt to getall four balloons evenly on the machineso it can float in the air without tipping.
That’s all you have to do to create this amazing flying machine! It worked perfectly for me, and if you want you can add chests for storage on it. Now you should check out our build guide on how to create amonorail in LEGO Fortnite.
