Medal PilotHat UGC Event in Land or Die!
Plenty of Planets partnered with Medal TV for the Summer Blox Party 2026, adding a Land or Die! quest that unlocks the Medal - PilotHat UGC badge and exclusive PilotHat cosmetic. The event started July 7, 2026, and runs through July 31, 2026 at 11:59 PM Eastern Time according to Medal's official event page.
Unlike fake code strings circulating on social media, this reward requires verified in-game actions tracked through the Medal desktop app with your Roblox account linked. Requirements from the Roblox badge description: play 30 minutes total, land the plane 3 times, and feed passengers 10 times.
This guide explains each requirement, how Medal quest tracking works, and cooperative strategies to complete landings and feeding tasks during IMPOSSIBLE difficulty sessions without confusing this event with the sold-out Airplane Floaty UGC.
Event Requirements Checklist
Roblox lists the Medal - PilotHat UGC badge with three concrete tasks. Play time accumulates across sessions — you do not need one uninterrupted 30-minute flight. Landing count requires successful touchdown win states, not crash endings. Feeding passengers uses in-game interact prompts distinct from calm or wake tasks.
Medal notes that limited UGC stock can run out before July 31 even though quests remain completable — prioritize claiming once all three criteria register as finished in the Medal app.
Mobile players can complete limited UGC quests per Medal's FAQ, but most Summer Blox Party quests are PC-exclusive — verify Land or Die!'s PilotHat quest availability on your platform before grinding.
| Task | Target | Tips |
|---|---|---|
| Play time | 30 minutes | Counts across multiple queues |
| Landings | 3 successful | Private crews raise odds |
| Feed passengers | 10 interactions | Use calm/feed prompts in cabin |
Setting Up Medal Tracking
Download the Medal desktop app and link your Roblox account through Medal's Summer Blox Party hub at medal.tv/developer/roblox/summer-blox-party. Quest progress syncs when Land or Die! runs while Medal captures gameplay — follow Medal's linking instructions for first-time setup.
Non-stock rewards like limited UGC deliver to Roblox inventory after Medal confirms completion. Check avatar editor under hats/accessories if the item does not appear immediately — Roblox delivery can lag several minutes during peak event traffic.
Do not share Roblox credentials with third-party sites promising instant PilotHat unlocks. Only Medal's official event page and in-game actions grant this badge legitimately.
Landing Three Times Strategy
Three successful landings at ~6% global rate sounds brutal solo — coordinate private servers with voice-assigned roles: fuel engineer, electric forward, calm main, pilot primary. Study our How to Land and Landing Gear guides before event grinding.
Partial sessions still advance play-time counter even if landing fails — treat each crash as data on which system failed. Most event failures trace to empty fuel, neglected electric boxes, or undeployed gear rather than pure pilot error.
License Acquired! training must be complete before live flights count toward cooperative landing practice — new players should finish Pilot Training first.
- Finish pilot training before event landings
- Use private servers with assigned roles
- Deploy landing gear before final approach
- Stabilize fuel and electric pre-descent
- Celebrate each landing toward the 3-count
Feeding Passengers Ten Times
Feeding tasks use cabin interact prompts when passengers request food or snacks during flights — distinct from calm-down prompts during panic or wake interactions for sleeping NPCs. Watch for feed icons near galley or seat rows.
Dedicated calm players often complete feeding naturally while managing mood chains. Assign one cabin specialist to prioritize feed prompts when Medal counter lags behind expected totals.
Rare passengers from Elite Passenger Pack still require standard feeding and calm mechanics — bonus Miles multipliers do not skip feed interactions for event credit.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get the free PilotHat UGC in Land or Die!?
Complete the Medal Summer Blox Party quest: play 30 minutes, land successfully 3 times, and feed passengers 10 times. Track progress through the Medal desktop app with your Roblox account linked. The event runs through July 31, 2026 ET.
Does feeding passengers count toward calm tasks?
No. Feeding uses separate cabin interact prompts when NPCs request food. Calm and wake tasks manage panic and sleeping passengers — all three interaction types matter for different goals during event grinding.
