That will be difficult to support it right...

^You have fun with that Gump...I would not look forward to doing that...Talk about frustration...

[Jogumpie]

I guess I will have to use grey rods instead of flexi's.

Wow, that is reeeally good.

[Jogumpie]

You can't really see it, because the pics are small, but the track is actually quite bumpy.
I have already replaced half the track with grey rods and this makes the track smoother. It won't be perfect, but well...it's plastic after all.

[RCT2123]

It looks rediculously big, and for a helix it looks like it raises way to much...I just am not seeing it...

[pkiknex25]

Yeah, its rising way too fast. It'll be about 8 ft tall when you get done with it, and I know thats not right.

[Archie_1990]

I'd say that the helix needs to raise a yellow/red rod every 90 degrees of the helix.

[Jogumpie]

You forget it's just raising about 100* of the helix, the rest is flat track.
The top you're seeing is VERY close to the top of the helix / second bückel.

[pkiknex25]

Oh, I see where your at now. lol It was sorta confusing.

[Jogumpie]

Gonna re-do it all over again. It is too steep IMO, this could look weird when you compare it with the drop right after this element.

[zapa]

You could change each tower so the first one is 1 yellow rod tall, the second tower is 1 yellow rod and one white rod tall, the third tower is 2 yellow rods tall...

[Jogumpie]

Or I could just create more space between the towers and re-do the track.

[Jogumpie]

I am modifying the caroussel all over again. The angle of ascend will be lowered from 18.4* to 11.3*

[Jogumpie]

w00t! Jogumpie is triple posting.
