'''''Diddy Kong Pilot''''' is the name of a canceled [[Game Boy Advance]] racing title starring [[Diddy Kong]] and other ''[[Donkey Kong (series)|Donkey Kong]]'' characters racing against each other in [[Plane]]s. This iteration was entirely redone from [[Diddy Kong Pilot (2001)|the original version]], before finally being redesigned into ''[[jiggywikki:Banjo-Pilot|Banjo-Pilot]]'' in 2005.

The player needs to complete each of the four cups by first completing the four races to win a trophy, which allows them to fight the boss. Team Kong and Team Cranky have the same cups and tracks, while the tracks in Team Krem's cups are reversed and have different names. In each race, the player must place between first and fourth to qualify for the next race. Three retries are allotted if they fail to qualify, represented by flag icons on the retry screen. More retries can be earned by collecting all the [[KONG Letters]] in a course. At the end of a cup, the player must place third or higher overall. Otherwise, the player is simply returned to the cup select screen.

Chris Seavor provided the voice of all playable characters (Diddy, Dixie, Funky, Donkey, Klap Trap, Kritter, Klump, K. Rool, and Cranky), while Dean Smith served as the announcer, using the exact same voice as [[T.T.]] All of the voices were recorded in late 2002 and were placeholders, later being replaced by voices from ''Banjo-Kazooie'' in ''[[jiggywikki:Banjo-Pilot|Banjo-Pilot]]''.<ref>[https://centurionelmagooscuro.home.blog/2022/01/23/krotica-pishi-fast-diddy-kong-pilot-el-disrespect-de-la-actuacion-de-voz-del-diddy-kong-racing/]</ref>{{better source}} All of the music from this build was reused in ''Banjo-Pilot'' with the addition of a few music tracks including the multiplayer theme, while "Monkey Madness!" was replaced by "Go Glowbo Go!"

The original title theme eventually went unused in the final game, though it was changed to replace the monkey screech at the beginning with a [[jiggywikki:Glowbo|Glowbo]] noise and remains in the game's files.

*In the Cups mode, the point spread matches those of the first three ''Mario Kart'' games; ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'' was the most recent ''Mario Kart'' game as of the prototype build. In ''Banjo-Pilot'', the point spread was changed to match that of ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', which was released after the ''Diddy Kong Pilot'' prototype, and was the most recent ''Mario Kart'' game as of the final release.
