Hey everyone, I’m playing in Bedrock mode and trying to build a flying machine for our bamboo farm with my father-in-law. However, it’s not working as we expected—it just goes back and forth instead of moving straight forward or backward. Sometimes it even moves 4 blocks forward and then 1 back. Any ideas on how to fix this?

I’ve built a similar flying machine before! To make a basic one, you’ll need to arrange the stuff like this: Piston, Slime, Piston; then Slime, Piston, Slime; and finally Slime, Observer, Slime. Make sure the pistons face the slime blocks correctly. It sounds tricky, but it’s pretty efficient once you get it right!
You might want to check out this flying machine design! It could help get things moving in the right direction. Here’s a link to a picture of it: [this design](https://preview.redd.it/simple-cheap-two-way-flying-machine-bedrock-edition-1-19-v0-63upld9xohpa1.jpg?width=640&crop=smart&auto=webp&s=ee8eaad59909ae7c6b757b7f457358958e137f91). Just make sure to double-check your placements.
I tried that design, but I think I messed up the placements or the direction of the blocks.
I can’t quite wrap my head around your setup, but it sounds like it might work!
