[RollercoasterC]

G'day,

A new coaster has been

announced being made out of 3 sets. The coaster will be nicknamed 'Fears

Destiny' for the moment.

This new coaster will feature one lift hill

going up around 2-2.5m (6.6-8.2 ft) then it will turn around before dropping.

The inversions i would like to have are: 1 Cobra Roll, (atleast)1 loop, A new

inversion i have yet to try and make out of knex.

The construction will start

soon on the lift then later more when my 2 new sets arrive.

Hope you like

it

Construction on the lift hill is complete, it is just over

180cm (for you american folk and other weird people, 5 foot 10 inchs)

what you would like to see on this new coaster

Carlo

[RollercoasterC]

any ideas anyone?

[Westside7th]

I want to see that inversion you have yet to try.

[RollercoasterC]

which inversions (apart from that one cause

i'm making it up hopefully its one not already made) would you like to see on it

[Westside7th]

I want to see an inclined loop like on Mantis and other

stand-ups. I think they are fun to ride and no one has done one yet.

[RollercoasterC]

if someone could find a pic of it i could possible try

and build it

thanks

[RollercoasterC]

Thanks for the pic jumpboy, i will try and make one,

Carlo

p.s. lift hill is complete and the small turnaround is also complete)

[RollercoasterC]

G'day,

layout of this inclind loop and i just want your opinions on it.

Pic 4,

Could you tell me if you think

that is smooth, cause i personally dont think so but i just want your standards

thanks

Carlo

[FunkMaestro]

Yeah it needs to be smoother, and there were no Pic

4!!

[RollercoasterC]

pic 4 up now, more work, my dad left my

window open (which is right next to the lift hill) and the whole thing toppled over, i

have just spent the last hour fixing everything up and its still not as good as it was



Real Lift

Translation
Construction has been delayed, the gale force winds have blown over

the crane supporting the lift hill, 20 employers have been injured and 4 are in critical

state. Production will resume as normal in the next few days

Carlo

[Westside7th]

Wow! 20 employers! That is a lot of

people to be working on one coaster! Millennium Force only had about 20 I

think. Geez, there goes the whole crew! LOL.

The inclined loop

doesn't look that smooth but it is hard to tell without the tubing on. Also, you

have angled to low. It technicalley is a helix because it doesn't go upside down.

You need to make the supports higher on the one side to raise it up more so it is on a

45 degree angle.

So does this mean i'm just making a raized helix, cause if i am i have a better

idea to make the supports stronger

thanks

Carlo

P.S. I have about 100 miwwion people working on this coaster

[Westside7th]

100

miwwion

Did you just make thet word

up?

Look at the pic jumpboy posted. It is basically a vertical loop tilted on

it's side or a helix raised up at a 45 degree angle.

Thanks, I will try and make it very

smooth today, and nah, i just copyed it off little kids going round saying miwwion

(million)

thanks for the help and i will try and have it completed on new

years eve ,

[RollercoasterC]

Ok, the tilted loop i have redesigned so its on a

steeper angle and has better supports (which are just average in my opinion)
