New Inverted Coaster

[Coasterkidmwm]

This is "in development", an experiment, and I promise (if it works) it will focus on delivering some really good positive G's. It's a bit ridiculously tall for an invert (160ft) but that shouldn't ruin it. So here's the drop. More later.

Looks good! Any idea on what the name might be? I'm glad to see that you also handbuild! Woohoo! Also, any colors chosen yet?

The top looks kinda like a jet coaster.

[Coasterkidmwm]

No it doesn't since the top has a lead in and jet coasters don't.

And to answer your question Sky, with me usually colors and a name come last.

Will have a helix like this coaster? http://www.rcdb.com/1227.htm?p=11036

[Coasterkidmwm]

Perhaps.

I think it ahould. Or incorporate something similar to that in the ride.

Will it have a 90 degree turn like this coaster's one? http://www.rcdb.com/3935.htm?p=20360

[Coasterkidmwm]

Maybe, maybe not. Maybe go (yay Departed quote) yourself.

dude, just be patient and let him add what he wants to it.

It's just a drop? why do people even anounce something when all they have is a drop?

What's with the top of the lift?

Good question. Maybe to... I don't know. To show the type of track? lol

^You are quite a smart guy, aren't ya?

[Coasterkidmwm]

Top of the lift is a mystery!

Name it Miracle Log Corster and make it all brown.

cool5, why can't you ever be serious?

I'm sensing a portable Giovanola Invert in the near future!

Haha

He actually had a good question. Maybe if you read a tad bit closer you'd understand...

Coasterkidmwm, your lift is oddly flat at the top. Notice how in all of these pictures, at the top of the lift, it goes down slightly, flattens out and goes into the lift. yours just goes directly into the drop. That is what i think Vid_w was talking about.

Okay, I might have been wrong about the portable part...

Your right slosprint,but you are also a tad wrong. The shaping is off in those pictures you posted, but as you can see in the picture that Vid_w posted, it doesn't dip down. So I think it is alright if Coasterkid keeps his lift the same.

Actually, B&M only resorted to placing "flat sections" directly after the lift hill to alleviate unnecessary strain on the chain lift. However, newer technology means that this isn't necessary. Look at some of their newer rides for example. That said, one can't really deduct points if this element is included or excluded IMO.
