I've been trying to make a player-rideable flying machine, using this base:

(The middle piston is sticky, and the machine takes off when I break the top of the iron block stack.)

For some reason, I kept falling out of this, so I tried other designs with more Slime Blocks to keep this from happening, but I just kept falling. Does anyone know how to make a machine where this won't happen? I know it's possible, as I've seen many fancy flying machines that work great for transportation, but I can't seem to figure out how, myself.

Thanks,

Try using a boat. Put the boat in between the redstone blocks. Worked for me.

Works like a charm. Thanks, eah!

EDIT: WARNING, THERE IS A FLYING MACHINE ON THE LOOSE ON MINEREALM. IF YOU SEE IT, DO NOT INTERACT WITH IT, BUT CALL 1-800-INTELLI AND TELL THEM OF YOUR WHEREABOUTS. THANK YOU.

I have some choice words about this...
This is why I didn't want these to start up.

There is now a broken flying machine hanging in the sky somewhere. Deel©orp would like to present our apologies, but that would be antethical to the spirit of our operations. Good day to you.

dlgn was able to fly all the way from around z:-1300, through the spawn point, and all the way to the first public plot at which point he jumped off. I followed it to "ye old frogtown" at z:1960 where it stopped. They seem to have a way of randomly stopping without running into anything. Luckily, there was a tower nearby. What seemed to be within enderpearl distance ate about a stack of mine. There it sits.
