Ive started a floorless coaster today its gonna have

the follwing:
a 5 ft 6inch lift and drop
a immelman to the left
into a

loops
then into ?
then doing a corkscrew
brakes

The plan

is up

[Westside7th]

There is no such thing as an immelman to the left.

Immelmans got into a half loop and then an inline twist. the train exits in the opposite

direction it entered the element in. Your element must be a half loop and then

corkscrew to the left but I dunno what it is called but it isn't an immelman. The

layout looks cool. Good luck fitting all that in before it loses speed.

[jumpboy]

If you use my trains they lose speed fast.Sounds cool

though.

[CostaKid]

An Immelman can be to the left. Montu's Immelman and Alpengeist's Immelman are not just inline twists, they are like a drawn out

half cork.

It can also be as you described, as seen in Great Bear.

[Stealthy350Z]

Actually all immelmans are the same...

ok all the same. ok on the plans it says vertical hill sorry

but thats something i cant picture B&M putting on there floorless .sorry but the

vertical hill is not that realistic on a floorless. well its your coaster up to you ok well

hope it goes well with the coaster.

[Sum41914]

im not B&M so i can build what i want as long

as it works, i want it to drop straight down 90 degrees i want it that way to thats what

ima do.

[Sum41914]

Heres a pic of te lift and the drop.

[Westside7th]

The coaster looks pretty good. the supports look a

little flimsy and the transition at the bottom of the drop should be more gradual but it

looks smooth. I hope we can see more soon.

[ThEoNe]

from what I can tell the immelman from Talon is

different then the rest if you look at it directly it exits to the left side and if you look at

the rest directly they exit to the right. What makes it diff. from a half cork is it turns

very slightly so it doesn't hit the entrance coming straight out.

[jumpboy]

ok all

the same. ok on the plans it says vertical hill sorry but thats something i cant picture

B&M putting on there floorless .sorry but the vertical hill is not that realistic on a

floorless. well its your coaster up to you ok well hope it goes well with the

coaster.

If someone else talks

about something in knex not being realistic im gonna go crazy.

Reminds me

of Typhoon right now. If the supports work then keep them.

According to

RCDB its and immelmann.

[Sum41914]

I finished the immelman im gonna put a pic of up later

tonite i need my camera to charge

[Sum41914]

The immelman to the left or right i cant tell(whatever

way you want to to go) pic is up.

[jumpboy]

Looks good. Thats a cobra loop(immelman).

[vortexfreak]

That looks very good! Nice job and I

can't wait to see more of this coaster.

[Sum41914]

im building my cobra loop taller cuz i think it could be

better. Does any1 agree with me?

[BOISIE]

I agree

Please post 5 or more words in a post. Anything below is considered spamming.

Thank you!

[Sum41914]

my cobra loop is 3ft tall. Im not gonna post any pics

ryte now as my camera is doing weir

things?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!





But they

should be up tonite, ive also started construction of the loop its porbably gonna be like

2 and 1/2 ft tall. I need some help on what the ? in my plan should be please help and

keep it reasonable not like a 3ft cobra roll into a sea serpent jus a songle element that

can be build i have alot of tubing so dont be tooo cautious.

[Sum41914]

Heres the pics of the taller cobra loop and the loop,

the loop is only 2 ft tall due to lack of speed and room ( in the first pic it looks like the

loop is unshapped but its only the angle).

[Sum41914]

heres one of the larger version of the cobra loop. its

stand 3ft tall
