I think it needs more banking. Not too much more though.

Looks like some good ol' woodie G's. I say you leave it. The coasters in the Dells have small pullouts and slightly banked turns. This looks just like them...

Wow, thanks guys. I am trying to model this coaster off of some old coaster, so the banking wont be as extreme as some more modern coasters.

The air hill is finished, I think it turned out well and looks a lot like some of John Millers coasters air hills. Next is a Schmeck style turn in to some more Miller style air hills.









I'm trying to buy 500 blue rods off of ebay, but the shipping was really high so I have to wait to see if he lowers it. Do you think 500 would be enough, I still have the 22.5* lift to build along with the rest of the layout. I probably have enought to get the incline part of the turn built, and maybe more. Comments

Thanks for the comments.

Well here's the finished Schmeck turn, it barely makes it but it still has good speed. Sorry about the dark pictures, I'm not sure what happend. I know there's a bump in the 1st picture, I'll fix it before the next update.










Now I'm running out of granite/yellow rods so I'm going to have to buy more, after I just bought 800 blue rods. Comments

That looks really nice. The drop's pullout looks like it has a little too much banking (last pic).

[dylan]

and there is a little bump

are x-ties an issue for you

EDIT: Okay wow you need to try more-CC10

[NitroDude319]

^ Next time use the edit button please.

It looks very nice just do what ^^ said and you'll be fine.

[dylan]

my bad, i forgot to use it

[G Force]

Do you guys really think the first drops pullout has to much banking, it has about the same as Diamondback. I might fix it but we'll see. Heres a test video for dylan. (ignore the last pullout its way to small)



Comments?

That's very nice, it has perfect speed. The turnaround reminds me of mine on Lynx, haha. Same radii. It looks great though, this will be awesome when it's finished.

From the view of the camera it looks a lot like Judge Roy Scream at SFOT. Good Job.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

Perfect speed! I love how slow it goes around the turn. Keep it up!

Thanks, thats just the kind of coaster I'm trying to build.

Me too, Thanks.

Well I finished the turning hill, to get the track parallel to its self for the 2nd half of the ride.
