If someone with a cape equips an elytra, all elytra models within a 4-5 chunk radius of the player will render with the player's cape driven texture, even if they later take the elytra off. As long as the player's elytra isn't visible on screen after the switch, it's possible to simply unequip the cape and keep the elytra textures the same, but the moment the player's elytra is seen, all other elytras are reset. (It's currently unknown whether the reproduction steps only occur client-side or not, and what happens if two capes are present)
This affects all elytra models, both players and mobs/entities.
Steps to Reproduce
Place an armor stand
Equip it with an elytra
Equip a cape
Equip an elytra
Here, the moment that the player's elytra is visible on screen (say if your were to press the elytra in your hand than change to third person view, or if you place it on your chestplate slot in the inventory menu), all elytra textures will adapt to the player's texture.

My main account Tixelpip has the Founders Cape and my other account doesn't. However, when I put an elytra on my other account while in the same world, it shows the cape texture. 🙂 main account is on Xbox One X and other account is on Windows 10.

From my perspective (me having a cape but others not), when I travel 4-5 chunks away then remove my elytra, other players' elytras are set back to normal.
I thought this was just an issue on Mineplex but I guess not.
Very strange bug. I hope it gets fixed next update.
This is very weird bug and i am actually surprised some people just dont care.. Also comment from Doubletoad74 is cool temporary fix but what about elytras with binding.. You cant remove elytra so your elytra will have no texture or pancape texture even if you are wearing founders cape? Thats just stupid..
I have a cape, but my friend doesn't. But with me, my eyltra gets reverted to the default texture, which annoys me.
Full Release of 1.21 somehow made this issue worse, putting enough elytra's on armor stands and doing this glitch can lag an entire realm.
Sorry both screenshots are from Win 10 it is much easier to capture and put here on pc than on Xbox.
