i like the idea,but there are some things your going to want to change. Your 0 g roll is really off, the middle of the roll should be lowered so that the track will roll around the heartline. I hope i said that right. lol.

^Yeah i know what you mean, you said it alright. Heartlining is really hard to do.

Dx- its a nice idea. I like the fact that your taking flyers to a new height. Just be careful. DO you want it do be a fantasy or realistic?

I want to keep it as realistic as possible, but bring in some new elements to a B&M flyer. Immelmans are a popular elemtn for B&M and it works on my flyer. I calculated it and it says it pulls 5 G's, but it reaches the top of the inversion at 19MPH and the G's are in the green

^Ha, 19mph seems REALLY slow on SM but i've gotten used to that. Yeah, once i get my sm stuff back (long story) i'll be able to download it. For now and from what i can see, it looks pretty good. Maybe a tad on the fantasy side, but certainly within the capabilities of this day and age of coasters. This is definitely the biggest flyer i've ever seen, kudos.
