I finally got around to taking pictures of how I made my old suspended cars from Furius V2 or 3 (There were so many versions I can't remember lol). Anyways,


Parts per car:
6 small black/green rods
2 blue rods
2 blue spacers
1 grey/tan clip (the one that is used to hold gears, don't know there name)
4 purple/grey (one-way) connectors
4 red 90o connectors
1 [front] car
1 car frame, take off the wheels


Step 1:
Make these.


Step 2:
Make this. Be sure to make sure the jut out on your clip is inside one of the purple connectors.


Step 4:
Add them together to get this. Make sure your red connectors alternate sides.


Step 5:
Attach the cars by placing the small green/black rods into the people holes.


Finished Product:



Yo uwould then repeat each for your next car and so on, so on. Of course you would not use a front car each time but yea. They swing pretty far but I modded them to make them more stable from my original design.

Sweet idea. Too bad it eats up cars so quickly.

[lazor 22]

Yay a response! Yea, and I wouldn't go more then a 4 car train, but the good thing is you can use your front cars for lower middle cars.

hey, if you don't want to use so many cars or damage the cars, use this idea, the one I used:
video: YouTube - Suspended3

Haha alpal, that's my coaster!
And yes, it does use less cars. You can use the wheels from the swinging car for the top one that runs on the track, so it only uses one SS car per suspended car.

two things how did you make those?

and has any one ever done a suspended swinging coaster

1. I might make a tutorial for them soon.
2. I've started two, but never made a complete one (yet)

The Arrow suspended coaster is my favorite type of coaster ever! I mean... just look at the MOMENTUM this thing has: http://www.youtube.c...h?v=u09Bfnj5l3U . Why the hell don't they make these anymore? Even in RCT3, it's pretty difficult to make a decent suspended swinging coaster. Your cars look sweet and I'd be terribly fascinated in seeing them in action.

This would be really cool if you could do this to VV cars to!!
