Big update, I finished the airhill and half of the overbank. Yes it shakes but with the other side finished it shouldn't shake. And i lubed and weighted the cars.
Heres my first video update...

^:rotfladd The pillow thing was great!:tmbs

The aittime hill needs to be much shorter! (I've ridden this so I should know!) It doesn't go out that far(the overbank). Also, I'm looking foward to the 0-g!

Air-Hill is way off.






It's more of a tiny and gradual pop, and it also is sort of a little upwards hill at the same time.

You know that the "overbank" is actually a cutback, right?

[CuteLittleBunny23]

^no its an overbank. its almost a cutback. a real cutback is an inversion.
^^ and are you guys sure? Ive ridden it too and from what i see so far its pretty close scale wise stating that the pullup to the airhill is touching the first half loop. I also think that if i want the second overbank right after the MCBR to be over the airhill then i should keep it this length.
I can see that the airhill is a little tall but if i only raised the track like a small grey rod it would look very out of place and like a straight spot.

Apparently the video is unavailable.

[CuteLittleBunny23]

^sorry im workin on that apparently youtube says there is something wrong with the audio.. :/
it works for me but... idk. Ill try to upload it to Photobucket

[Renegade]

It's more of a transition upwards, like a small hill, it doesn't go back down to the point where it started, it goes up, and evens out, then goes into the cutback/whatever.

Ok, the video is fixed but i didnt get to put the song in it. Lol.

And heres pics of the new cars and terrain trekker motor with the working lift.
And to Renegade, i think my pics were to close but the exit side of the airhill is actually a small grey rod taller. So it is like a small raise.

Try This.

You never fixed the loop. There's sharp spots at about 135* on each side, so it looks like a cone.

[Mikecoastermaniac]

ahah, I love the spot in the video where you just throw something at it to make it go down! But fix the loop and the overbank turn thing.

[CuteLittleBunny23]

Hows this for the loop? I only changed one support but i messed with the track a little.

[da master826]

It's a little bit sharp at the entrance of the loop. Fix that and your good to go.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

As this picture comparing the 2 loops shows, the upper corners come out too far. This is making the sharp spots.

[CuteLittleBunny23]

^ thank you so much for that comparison! can you plz send me that pic without my track added please? thank you ive been looking everywhere for a side view of the loop. ill work on the corners now thanks.

[pkidiamondback]

^^Whoa Nice picture there!
This Coaster looks pretty good!

[CuteLittleBunny23]

^thx

Updates, got the full overbank done.

[Coaster55]

I think the angle it's going away from the rest of the track might be too much, maybe make the last radii support on the exit side turning a little more.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

^ That pic makes it look just like an inside top hat (without going upside-down). Yours looks more like an overbank.

And the requested pic...might have to zoom in a little...
