After two cancelled coasters RB is determined to finish something...This ride will largely be based off HRRR...Its back in the great hurricane room too...building in the garage just wasn't working out lol.

[maarten12]

you mean based of Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit? That would be awesome! I love to see how that turned around loop will come out Good luck!

[Kevyn230]

Nice looking really good. I think the top is tight but HRRR is just like that (a bit) but I think apart from that it is awesome!

The drop should look more like this:

Yours looks like it has a straight(or at least relatively)spot. To fix this it should be a bit steeper.

Are you going to do a non-inverting loop?

[Rollerboaster]

^I will make it a little steeper...come on guys 3 comments?

[rsteele06711]

Steeper?! If anything it should be a bit less steep.(Just about 5 degrees too steep) The crest should be a little larger too. It looks delicious either way though.

[JPCoaster]

I think that the crest should be a little bigger, IMO the drop is perfect. I hope you will do a twisted loop

[~stεεlspectrum~]

The crest could be a little bigger. Once you do that, just smooth it out and it should be good.

[Rollerboaster]

Reusing old names ftw! Anyways haven't fixed the crest yet not sure if I will mess with it...First knex non inverting loop ever! And it works too! More pics when i finish it...

[maarten12]

wow, that looks smooth! I can't wait to see the loop finished and of course for the pictures

[Kevyn230]

Looks really smooth. This coaster is looking spectacular!

[da master826]

I would like to note that is not the first EVER. It's just the first to work, because my attempts were horrible.

Also, it should be more round looking. Yours is round with a flat top.

Otherwise very smooth and well done.

[Knexrule11]

RB, this is amazing! Just make the top of the loop non flat and your good.

[rsteele06711]

Personally, I think that is perfect! The loop looks flat on top because of the large crossties, in my opinion.

[Spitfire]

I've designed Non-inverted loops in No Limits before, and when you heartline it perfectly, the top tends to receive a flat appearance. So mixed with the crossties and heartline, it may look a little flat, but try to imagine the heartline as a normal loop. It still has the teardrop shape. Nice work, Arby.

[Jogumpie]

The top is supposed to look flat, just like on inverted zero-g rolls. So don't change a thing. Looking pretty bad-ass like this.

[G Force]

The second half of the loop looks a little sharp, maybe it will be fixed when you continue the track. It looks very smooth and well supported though, great job.

[RCT2123]

That is awesome! I agree with him ^ though, the second half looks a tad sharp...

I think I fixed that part now...

Finished the loop for the most part it really hardly shakes at all...I know proportionatlely mine is a little wider than the real one but at this scale I don't think its really possible to make the twist any shorter. Layout ideas? I'm thinking I will have a slight turn into mcbr like on the real ride but have the rest of the layout different...

[rollercoasterfanatic919]

I really like how that looks, it's almost flawless. I'm sure the tubing through the middle holes helps strengthen the twist a lot. As for a layout, I would really like to see a twisty part near the end. Keep it up, I can't wait to see the rest!
