^Yes. Very painful. Maybe we'll be proved wrong. I had a similar-esque turn on my current project, going up instead of down, and the lats were killer. Easy fix.
Why the short train though? It should have at least 6 to 8 cars. But then again, it's Thrills ride.
I do like the idea, it's definitely original for that style of coaster. Seems most real Vek Flyers are slight variations of the the first design.
