To fly on the Isle, you need to launch yourself into the air by holding the spacebar, which will cause your Pteranodon to quickly launch into the air, or you can also take a running liftoff which uses slightly less stamina, by running and holding spacebar at the same time, then letting go of spacebar (but keep running) when your wings start flapping for takeoff. The Pteranodon is a flying dinosaur in the Isle, and understanding its controls and mechanics is crucial to flying successfully and surviving in the game.
