Ok so this is king raptor (I have about two Raptors tamed an three breed)And I have been seeing a lot of complaints of y'all saying you can't get down after parachuteting with them. If your on mobile jus attack and yourselves will trow them. Can't believe you didn't know that

It seems the reload button on consle makes this land

Im gonna beat the tech cave with this guy, a tech suit, and an ascendant pump-action shotgun.

WARNING: don’t try picking it up with a flyer it will loosen the grip and glide away so just tame it right where it is

Guys, on PC version you can switch between gliding and falling by pressing R (or whatever you set for Reload)!!

I love these little guys so much and they’re so much fun! When you aren’t goofing off and jumping off cliffs with them they prove very useful. If you jump off your flyer(don’t forget to whistle your flyer to follow, if not it might land) while holding your little dude the flyer will remain suspended in midair will regenerate stamina. I tested this on a metal run once and learned that my argy dropped my ankylosaurus that it was carrying when I dismounted so keep that in mind.

-M.L.

This guys are for a very situational use. Since they wont allow you to use your hands while grabbing them, you cannot take out items or guns.

Not really useful if you are heading out for a tame run cuz not even a spyglass you are allowed to use while grabbing them.

Use one of these bad boys with a wing suit

Best combo: Run while holding this and jump from a high place to get a bird’s-eye view of what it looks like riding a Ptereradon.

Be VERY cautious when gliding with one of these. I had ventured to the volcano for some amber and metal searching, and I jumped off and began gliding with my little Archae named Skaikru. When I accidentally tapped the screen (Be aware, I am on mobile.) And I chucked little Skaikru right into the outskirts of Redwoods, with my army Valkyrie following my plummeting body all the way down.

Moral: If you’re on mobile whilst gliding with one of these, DO NOT TAP THE SCREEN.

Throw yourself off a gigantopithecus while holding this fun lil guy

Saved my life more then once, when I have fell off my dino.

When tamed it just eat chitin

It don't eat meat

Flight speed is defined over your movement speed, not the Archeopteryx'

Put points into stamina instead

Ark tip: Archeopteryx can be use as a glider.

Archeopteryx can be found on red wood forest in the trees.

You can use this when you throwed by gigantopithecus

It will be fun

On PS4 per square and on Xbox press X to stop flying

Don’t set your little ARK chicken on wonder in a 1 fence tall enclosure that’s ho mine got missing XD

Pressing the square button on PS4 stops them from flapping, press the button again to continue, timing the button presses properly will allow you to descend rapidly with no fall damage.

If you pick it up… and jump off a cliff and……….. glide.
