# Carpet of Flying *Wondrous item, very rare*  You can make this carpet hover and fly by taking a [Magic](3-Mechanics/CLI/rules/actions.md#Magic) action and using the carpet's command word. It moves according to your directions if you are within 30 feet of it. Four sizes of Carpet of Flying exist. The DM chooses the size of a given carpet or determines it randomly by rolling on the following table. A carpet can carry up to twice the weight shown on the table, but its [Fly Speed](3-Mechanics/CLI/rules/variant-rules/fly-speed-xphb.md) is halved if it carries more than its normal capacity. **Applicable Carpet Sizes** `dice: [](carpet-of-flying-xdmg.md#^applicable-carpet-sizes)` | dice: 1d100 | Size | Capacity | Fly Speed | |-------------|------|----------|-----------| | 01-20 | [Carpet of Flying, 3 ft. × 5 ft.](3-Mechanics/CLI/items/carpet-of-flying-3-ft-5-ft-xdmg.md) | 200 lb. | 80 feet | | 21-55 | [Carpet of Flying, 4 ft. × 6 ft.](3-Mechanics/CLI/items/carpet-of-flying-4-ft-6-ft-xdmg.md) | 400 lb. | 60 feet | | 56-80 | [Carpet of Flying, 5 ft. × 7 ft.](3-Mechanics/CLI/items/carpet-of-flying-5-ft-7-ft-xdmg.md) | 600 lb. | 40 feet | | 81-00 | [Carpet of Flying, 6 ft. × 9 ft.](3-Mechanics/CLI/items/carpet-of-flying-6-ft-9-ft-xdmg.md) | 800 lb. | 30 feet | ^applicable-carpet-sizes **Items in this group:** - [Carpet of Flying, 3 ft. × 5 ft.](3-Mechanics/CLI/items/carpet-of-flying-3-ft-5-ft-xdmg.md) - [Carpet of Flying, 4 ft. × 6 ft.](3-Mechanics/CLI/items/carpet-of-flying-4-ft-6-ft-xdmg.md) - [Carpet of Flying, 5 ft. × 7 ft.](3-Mechanics/CLI/items/carpet-of-flying-5-ft-7-ft-xdmg.md) - [Carpet of Flying, 6 ft. × 9 ft.](3-Mechanics/CLI/items/carpet-of-flying-6-ft-9-ft-xdmg.md) *Source: Dungeon Master's Guide (2024) p. 242*
