Yesterday I went to walibi world(my home park) With 2 friends

One of them had an iPhone with G-force application, he took it with him in the roller coaster

Here is the result, if you want details, feel free to PM

Don't mind the first and last peaks, they don't belong to the actual ride, the second is the pre-lift

And the iphone couldn't go higher then 4G

i think that aplication sort of sucks as no way does robin hood go any higher on than 3G most

Yeah, while I've never been on the ride, it really doesn't look as though it would go up to and beyond 4G's of force. It was probably jumping around in your pocket at that point and that caused the increase in forces or something.

Woodies can easily put out 6+ Gs of "noise," since they don't ride tight to the rails. The train bouncing in a valley could easily create the 4Gs seen there, especially since that isn't sustained at all.
