Hello fellow Coaster Crazy Members.

I have decided to put Das Vampyr and Banshee on hold for a while and have abandoned Drag Me to Hell (which I might restart later), The rollercoaster based on the Sam Raimi movie which Was AWESOME! I am currently in the designing process of my newest, Black Mamba inspired coaster, Project Rattler. I plan for it to have five inversions (Immelmann, Vertical Loop, Heartline Spin [Zero G Roll], and two Wing Overs), and it is going to have a western theme. I only have one problem. I could use some help finding some ways to connect the loop and the zero g roll, while being able to maintain the BLACK MAMBA feel. All ideas are appreciated. here is the layout so far. http://www.NoLimitsDevCenter.net/p5785

Thank you for your help.

It actually goes a little too slowly over the top of the Immelmann. It goes a bout 17 mph. Why do you ask?

I have solved the Zero G Roll problem. I added my own element to the ride which is similar to the helix after the Immelmann on Talon and Patriot.

I am a little stuck about how to finish the ride, and I will update when this problem has been overcome. However, if anyone has any ideas for solving this, please do not hesitate to post them.

Thank you.

Yeah I would save the Immelmann as an element then insert it at a smaller size. That's just a bit to large for the second element, and in the B&M Invert style it should be taking the whole thing pretty fast.

Actually its the first inversion. Just letting you know. Also it does flip through the rest of the inversions at anywhere from 28 to 23 mph.

I would have made the elements smaller but it causes a lot of G spikes during the inversions.

Then shape them properly, lol. Plus B&M inverts can reach 4.5 or more on inversions.
