Well I wanted to try a flat ride and I decided to do

something relativly simple. I'm still doing Hypersonic and the dueler.

If you don't know what the ride looks like then go here.

I've built 3 of the cars and have the supports done. I am trying to make

the cars strong enough to hold a digital camera so you guys get a on-ride POV



Pics

Soon!

I need opinions. I have two designs for the seats.

Theres pros and cons for both.

Larger seat

Pro
-Looks better
-Able to hold camera

Con
- hits the supports sometimes
-Bulky

Smaller seats

Pro
-Smaller; not as

bulky
- doesn't hit supports

con
-Looks a

little odd
-can't hold a camera

Tell me what you think.

I like the big ones cuz u can hold the camera. Is it

possible to maybe make the supports further away from the seats swinging path so it

doesnt hit it?

[jumpboy]

I didn't even think of that. Yea, it will be easy to

move the supports.

[vortexfreak]

I also like the big ones better even if they hit the

supports sometimes. Maybe you could just change the supports some so the big cars

don't hit them.

Don't you think that they could abe bigger? I

made a huss frisbee once and It was a little over a foot in diamiter. Just wondering

cause that looks like both a very small pendulums for that big of supports.

[jumpboy]

It will look better when all four pendulums are

attached. That pic made them look smaller.

[vortexfreak]

That will be awesome! Are you going to have a

video?

[jumpboy]

Yea, there will be a vid. I'm done but I have to

wait till my parents come back from a trip so I can use our good camera.

[jumpboy]

Heres an overview of the entire thing. I'll get

more later along with a video. Its still nameless.

[Sum41914]

That looks really i cant wait for the

video!
