Wearing an elytra while either walking or flying causes very severe lag. This is for Minecraft bedrock on both xbox and pc. This has started to happen ever since the 1.16.200.53 release of bedrock.

Can confirm, updated to beta and was wondering why it was so lagging. I disabled the fancy graphics, render distance and such to no avail until I read this bug. Took the elytra off and it's sticking around 50 to 60 fps

Could we get a video showing the lag difference with and without elytra?
Can confirm here, the FPS starts to drop rapidly when you're flying, and the only way to get it back to normal FPS again is by taking the elytra off. I attached the video here.

This didn't happen to me in the previous beta so it seems it's a more widespread issue now

Been happening to me too, as soon as I remove the elytra it's suddenly fine - but running, flying, sneaking and swimming whilst wearing an elytra drops so rapidly, its very disorientating

I wonder if they’re trying to improve chunk loading while flying by diverting processing power from fps to chunk loading and terrain generation?

A new fix for MCPE-85614 related to elytra is reported for 1.16.200.57 beta. Does that impact this issue?
