Summary
AZelda: Tears of the Kingdomplayer has achieved “powerless flight” with the help of a caged Rito. Of all the uniqueZelda: Tears of the Kingdomcreations that have been shared, some serve purposes like traversal, combat, and farming, and this player has found a way to get around that requires no power.
SinceZelda: Tears of the Kingdomwas released, many players have shared their builds created using the Ultrahand and Fuse abilities. While Fuse only combines two items,Tears of the Kingdom’s Ultrahandallows players to make things like ground and flying vehicles, mechs, unicycles, and more. AsZelda: Tears of the Kingdomfans attempt to create the most optimal vehicles, a player has used one item to achieve what they call powerless flight.

Reddit user Dylan1234no recently shared a clip of their Ultrahand item experiments inZelda: Tears of the Kingdom. In the video, the player is using theZelda: Tears of the Kingdomability on a cage to catch a Rito that’s flying around.Rito are a race inZelda: Tears of the Kingdomthat can be spotted in certain areas of the map. Upon capturing a Rito in their cage, the player releases the Ultrahand and observes the crate bouncing around as the character continues to fly along its path uninterrupted. The video then cuts to Dylan1234no riding the caged Rito around an area of Lookout Landing that shows Link doesn’t fall off the object despite some erratic movements.
According to Dylan1234no, the cage used for the Rito was from the east coast ofZelda: Tears of the Kingdom’s Hyrule and was manually brought to Lookout Landing. Because Rito aren’t common in Hyrule, Lookout Landing may be among just a few locations where players can utilize this trick. Demonstrating the best method of getting to the caged Rito, Dylan1234no used a rocket shield to shoot upward, then the glider to land on top of it. While mostotherZelda: Tears of the Kingdomaircraftuse fans and rockets to travel impressive distances across Hyrule, Dylan1234no’s video proves that other methods of flight are possible.
Because theZelda: Tears of the KingdomRito continues to fly in a circle, it’s unlikely that Dylan1234no can take it outside its designated area. Although the Rito in Dylan1234no’s video can provide a different perspective of this part ofZelda: Tears of the Kingdom’s Hyrule, it may serve little purpose due to its limitations. While it isn’t technically a powerless flight, as the caged Rito is providing the power, the object doesn’t drain batteries like fans would.
