Yo James has started a eurofighter! I will be entering it in the winter contest. i just wanted to make sure the pull in to the lift is right.

[~G3n3rOo2256~]

you dont need max x-ties on the lift. and I would make the pull in a little bigger.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

^ It's fine, they're supposed to be that small.
I would put the gears further up the lift so it's resting against the lift more. You could also put a 'chain dog' on the back car to push it up there.

[the_burrito_master]

keep every thing the way it is and move on.

^you need it to be like that so the chain dog will attach.

[iggfish123]

got the drop done.

[Mikecoastermaniac]

why so many cross ties on the lift?
But it looks smooh

[the_burrito_master]

^who cares it's more attractivethat way.

nice man smooth and looks like it's going to work out nicely for you.

Small pull out X(

Can we get a pov to check heartlining?

[metallicais1337]

^^Yeah, I have to agree with you on that one, the pullout is a little too close to the lift. If you pull it out more, maybe you'll still be able to fit it in the cube.

Good God child stop spamming the forums with your videos that don't even help anything that's related to this thread. (And there isn't even a 1:40-1:42 in the video...) I'd say the drop looks fine, but I agree with da master.

It looks good so far but could you get some more pics?

[Kool Coaster Kid]

Looks good.
How long is the train? The gear is quite far down the drop...

[metallicais1337]

^I would assume 1-2 cars, that's the average for an SS Eurofighter.

EDIT: Why do I see 3 cars in the first pic?

[christian]

^ Why does it matter? A rollercoaster is a rollercoaster.... geez.
Looks good to me.

ive decided to screw the eurofighter idea. i dont wanna build this anyway. im going to change this to a huge record breaking launch coaster....well i think it will be record breaking. it will be a launched coaster. it will have a decent layout. its not gonna be something like kingda ka with one giant thing then done. this isnt just to break the record i want to. u can go ahead and guess what record you think ill be breaking or coming close to. dont expect anything from me for about 3 days. dont tell me im gonna mess up.

Height? Speed? Track Length? Pieces?
Just a few ideas...

[iggfish123]

eh its tallest cobra roll and maybe tallest loop. only if i have enough speed and pieces for the loop. i started the pullin to the cobra roll. i was looking at it and i was wondering if it would look better if i flipped it...

[Kool Coaster Kid]

Looks good. This cant be your winter contest entry because it passes out of the box.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

Well it seems to me that on a cobra roll, the pullin/out should have an almost constant radius, then get really sharp right at the top. Besides, your beginning is too sharp.
