I will attempt to build a custom wing rider with 3 inversions. So far I only have the lift hill and part of the turning drop. The 3 inventions I'm planing to build a Dive loop, Immelmann and in line twist.

Tires


I used tires on the lift because they work better then regular gears. I have one on the bottom as we'll.

Comment and enjoy.

Looks nice so far but I would use smaller tires. It will work better

Your train wouldn't make it over that wheel.

If you made your track up to a blue rod then it could make it

I'd go fix your tubes. Tubes are another beast and they take time to create, but it is all about what works for you. For me, forgetting the grid system, designing a two later base, and exploring possible connections helped a lot.

Bring said, your tubes aren't strong and are bending. I like the simplicity, but it is not holding the lift together. You won't need that many x-ties on the lift either; in contrast, leave the count on the track the same.

Regardless, I hope you complete this! The layout sounds very reasonable and accomplish able.

Sorry to keep you guys waiting. I got the drop done. Tho it was hard to build a turning drop. Also a vertical loop and dive loop have been added.

Also I replaced the tire at the top.

The dive loop is way too flat from the side. And the pullin needs to be elongated, and the inversion delayed. Meaning, it won't be inverted until just after the peak of the loop.

Notice the train in this picture.

I know this isn't the best ride ever but none the less the Dive loop has been fixed. I have decided to add a break run after the dive loop and a possible batwing ending with a classic helix into the station.

The loop will be better once the tube supports have been added.

New dive loop.


Please comment.

Looks very nice so far, keep it coming.

You need to support this dive loop a lot more, I can imagin it shaking

[Muzz135]

The dive loop is now much, much better! Continue!

[BubbleMan 32714]

A lot has been done this weekend. I added tube supports to the dive loop and also a secon vertical loop has bee added. The ride will end with a hill into the station.

I think that the transition out of the last element looks really awkward and the turn looks abnormally sharp. Have you tested it out to see if it shakes much?
