I am building a roller coaster. I don't know what to name it. I am making it with the new roller coaster track and it will have about ten inversions. It will also be at least 6 ft tall. I have an idea!

[decaxxeca]

start smaller or else people will flame you how many sets do you have?

[RCExtreme]

I have a lot of new roller coaster sets. I have 1 vertical vengeance, 2 serpents spiral, 1 doubledare dueling coaster, 1 renegade run coaster set, ferris coaster wheel, and i also have 2 motorized madness ball machines that i use for pieces for my structures. i also have other sets that i use for pieces for my structures.

[decaxxeca]

you should still start smaller so that you can hone your skills.

[RCExtreme]

You know what I should do? I should build two smaller roller coaster while I am building my current one. That could work. i could post the pictures and videos of the smaller roller coasters before the big one. I could even take the smaller ones apart and use them for pieces for my bigger roller coaster.

[decaxxeca]

no you should build one 3 foot looper and take all the advise that people with yellow purple or red names give you

[Maverix]

Yeah start WAY smaller, especially with the amount of pieces you have. I have at least 3 times that many and I barley have enough pieces for a 6 footer, start smaller, around 3 feet, get your basic skills mastered then try some harder stuff. If you do this, even if your coaster isn't that great, you'll be a well respected member, take advice, ask questions if you don't understand, and have fun.

about a month before Christmas, I made a roller coaster with 2 five foot tall lifts. It was about 12 ft long and 2 ft wide. It used about 80 ft of track. I didn't even use much of the ball machine that I had at that time. I got my second ball machine later. I know that I can make a 6 footer.

pics of past model? you should still start smaller if you don't listen to older members youll be more hated than me....

[RCExtreme]

I will try to get pics in the morning. I dont know where to get the pics and my dad doesnt want to spend the time to look for them right now.

[RCExtreme]

Also, in the morning i will post a couple of construction pics of my current coaster. I have also made up a cool way to save pieces. I will take several pics of my sturdy invention that makes it possible for me to make less supports and still have a sturdy coaster. I still need help with ideas for a name. It will have about 8 or 9 inversions.

[decaxxeca]

see that button that says edit please use it double posts will ruin your rep

[RCExtreme]

Anyway, I still need ideas for a name. My coaster will be a looper with 7 or 8 inversions. I will try to use at least 100 ft of track. Did I mention that I use VV track? Also, I am not a beginner. This coaster is going to be big. Does anyone have any ideas for a name? I am going to try to think of something, but I might need help.

Californian Beast. Doubt that's been trademarked lol.

[RCExtreme]

I'll think about that one. I am almost done with the lift. When I finish it, I will post pictures. I'm glad that I figured out how to make the cars stop in the station and then start going again. All I did was have a chain that carries the cars three quarters of the way through the station. Then the cars stop and a piece that is attached to the chain pushes the cars out of the station.

[Rollerboaster]

OK well be sure to post the pics in freelance construction.

[RCExtreme]

I will take some pictures as soon as soon as a fix the base that holds up the top of the chain lift. As soon as my dad lets me use his laptop, I will post pics and a test video. Californian Beast is coming along nicely.
It might only have 5 or 6 inversions.

[coastermaniac]

it will have about ten inversions

It will have about 8 or 9 inversions.

My coaster will be a looper with 7 or 8 inversions

It might only have 5 or 6 inversions.

Dude....

We will find a loop and a barrel roll next to a 6ft lift hill. Post some pics.

[RCExtreme]

I'm sorry, but I kept changing the layout. It's a little more than 5 ft tall. It already has some kind of reverse immelman and a loop. I am going to start working on the inside top hat tomorrow. Look for pics and a video in the freelance construction. Remember, my coaster will be called Californian Beast.
