^^Thanks for pointing that out, It's fixed now. Unfortunately, when I resize my photos on Imageshack, everything looks flatter and wider than it really is, making it sort of hard to get an accurate side view of the drop. In real life the drop is pretty narrow.

First, you can't have a main support tower with different rod sizes, you have a blue, red, red, red, and a yellow for the tower. For the 45 degree lift you have yellow, yellow, yellow, yellow, yellow, yellow. You need to have a 6 yellow rod, or 3 long grays, tall support tower, with the same lift part.

Edit-Wait, but will I still be able to use reds as a base rod for the rest of the coaster??

Something else that isn't necessary now, but maybe on future coasters, is try to make the supports width a yellow rod two. So for supports instead of blue rod, half moon, blue rod; use a small gray, half moon, small gray.

in better, easier to understand terms, the rod diagonal to the base rod is going to be the diagonal on the lift. for example, if your base rod is red, then the diagonal on a square is gray, and that is the diagonal length of your lift. i like to visualize it as if it was a woodie, with all the supports there, then just delete everything in the middle.

Edit-Ok, I ended up redoing the whole thing so, is how does the structure/crest look now???
Overview (yes I will install a motor)
Crest close-up. Yes, it is a bit less flat in real life.

continue, i think your crest looks fine, but like ^^ said, try to put your gears a little bit lower down, like touching the flexis.

The catwalk
The crest
The drop
Up next is a turnaround followed by an airtime hill and maybe a buckel. Comment!!!-OL659

IMO, the pullout could start a little sooner, which would make the drop smoother. Other than that, nice.
