I hope this works

Here's to hoping!

I don't know if summer heat is really happening this year. I may be wrong. Also you can use the bb code in the share links to put all the pictures into the thread. It makes it easier to see.

Anyway, I think this is a pretty fun looking thing. The supports I think could be a little beefed up but only really for looks. Good progress made so far though.

Edit: V Inb4update haha

Hey an actual update!

What have I done? I've finished supporting the top of the structure and started to work on the lift.

And now pics!

A pic of a old coaster needed to be taken apart

An overview of the coaster

One curve I'm not so sure about, could use some help with that.

That's all for now, I am away this weekend so no updates too soon.

Lol I wasn't actually gonna enter it, I'm far from contest worthy yet. But now I regret the name how do I change it?

You can go into the Edit feature at the bottom of your first post and then go onto full editor and change the title. That should sort it.

I like your wall color. Are you talking about the second curve? If so, then you should mirror the bottom part so that it matches the top part - by this, I mean you should use that top rod (is that a gray flexi rod? Wow, I haven't seen one of those in forever! They're like, really rare..) on the bottom part as well so that it's symmetrical. In short, try to get rid of the pointy part where the track goes 90* exactly. Also, a way to get pictures to show up - URL free - is to do the following: When you are replying to your topic, click on the "My Media" button located to the right of your avatar and right next the smiley face. In order to get individual pictures onto your post, you will need to select "Gallery Images". Any pictures you want to put in your post, simply click and you should get a little text in brackets that includes some information and the picture number. Note that if you name the picture in the gallery, it won't show up in the brackets. It'll just be the picture number. So, keep track of which code is which picture. I hope I helped!

No those aren't flexis, they are curved prices I got from the double doom roller coaster building set from knex.

I will try to do that, may need to keep notes

LoL;)

Any way I guess I will update.

[SCM]

The curve looks much better now.

Nice work so far! Crazy, compact designs like this are what VV was designed for!

There haven't been many VV 4Ds yet - so hopefully yours can lead the way!

 

P.S Can we have an overview of the layout?

[Inswerver]

Soon. But from now on, No More Links!!!!!

Plus exiting news, the run is completed!! And detailing has started. Not just that, but expect a final vidio very very soon!

BTW first one to come up with a name for this coaster will get their name on the train! Get naming.

I was just doing that for the Lola, I don't normally say "Y'all"

[BGTKing]

No problem with it. Just a southern thing

[Inswerver]

Well time for a update!

What have I done?

Finished track layout and worked on station.

Finished brand new 4d custom cars .Ade from micro knex.

That's all, onto pics!




The station so far



Up view of lift



View of first airtime hill



Shot of brakes, name all the methods I used.



Batwing gets his wish!

And now last but not least!



A clear shot of the train!

That's all for now folks, but one last thing. I still need a name for it, could you help?

See ya

[IOAgeek]

Looks great, can we see a video of it running completely!

[CW5X]

Looks pretty solid to me. A conviniently sized model for your bedroom too.
