it may be the angle

[Coaster55]

Whats wrong with your lift hill, it seems to be 45, then goes 90. Also, your drop is under supported and so is the pull out.

ok ill try to add more supports but the i cant change the lift

[Coasteradict]

why can't you change the lift?

ok... the dive loop shouldn't shake. BEEF UP THOSE SUPPORTS. Do whatever you can, and i have faith in you on this coaster!

It looks like it's leaning to the side where the car comes in.

I just made mike's immelman from his tutorial and mine was leaning to the side too. I had to add pretty big side supports. I will show you a pic later when I post the coaster.

[Finster222]

yea i made mine from his tutorial

[KingsIslandFreak]

God SJs right about the supports. It shakes more than the VV coasters. no offence but i can tell where the part u built and the part Mike showed on Tut. Beef up those supports the best you can. If your getting peices for Xmas, you will have no problem.

[DJMK]

Thats what I did. I could sit on that if the actual pieces would bend.

[Finster222]

i supported the pullout and it doesnt shake that much now

[KingsIslandFreak]

ok good luck

[LCAL]

prove it.

and if you also notice his probably shakes like that cuz well let see....he has no supports under the pull out of the drop??

[Finster222]

mcm thats wit 1 car and the reason mine shook so much was that the pull out wasnt supported
watch the video and when the train hits the pull out the whole thing shakes before the train gets to the dive loop

Support the pullout actually, don't make the immelmann so round, fix the pullout of the immelmann(don't make it so straight), fix that lifthillit shouldn't go from about 50 degrees to 90 in about 6 inches of space (i dont care if it's actually 9 or something it shouldn't happen!)

If you don't have enough space just for a lifthill, make this a small coaster. You don't need to be going big obviously. If this is your second coaster or even third you obviously don't need to be doing a looper. Try just like a flat ride. Or just a nice 2 ft tall coaster that has some hills and maybe a turnaround. Like a mini version of my current coaster.

Go to Rollerdude's design shop (if you're still doing that Rollerdude) and he'll make you a good coaster based of your skill and amount of pieces.

Trust me, I tried to start out big and I had tons of pieces, still had a sucky coaster. I've learned that when you're just getting started, bigger is much worse...
