This was supposed to be a hammerhead turn, but this is cooler:

This was supposed to be a air time hill but these turns are more fun:

Mid Brake run:

No Hypercoaster is complete without a helix, except La Ronde's Goliath:

Please remember to give me a namehttp://rctlounge.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif

I hope I don't get in trouble for putting this in the NoLimits thread, there isn't a Scream Machines one =\

Well, since it's so yellow, I can think of a few names: The Banana Coaster, Yellow Submarine, Sun Ride, etc. :D Really though, I like the design a lot, even though the overbanked turns are extremely overbanked. I just think that the colors need some work. Maybe yellow and blue? Or red and black? And names, the only one I came up with was Fuel. I don't know why that word popped in to my head. It looks like it could almost be a real B&M Though. Good job.

Its has a little blue in :stick_tongue: The overbanked turns are exctly at 90 degress so I don't know how they could be extremely overbanked:confused1:

I also forgot to say that this is my first Scream Machines coaster:roll_eyes:

What I mean is that the turns don't turn very much, so there won't be enough G forces to keep the riders pressed toward the track and instead they will be pulled to the ground by gravity. Hope that explains it.

Oh.........

Well onride it looks safe. There really isn't a thing that will tell you the G-Force.

Up top, the black bar will show you the G's. The idea of banking is to keep positive forces within reasonable levels of 1-5 g's, reoving laterals in the process. Some laterals are ok and should be expected in a handmade track, but lets say you're turn is banked at 90 degrees and the car is only going 10 miles an hour -- The positive force of the turn won't be enough to keep riders pinned in their seats, and the banking of the turn will push gravity on the sides of the riders -- Unrealistic, to say the least.

Simply put, you need speed for heavily banked turns in order to keep thing realistic. Your ride is safe, if you were riding though it would just feel as though you were lying on you're side through that turn.

EDIT: Im sorry, thought this was NL, Disregard the black bar part

It's still a good coaster, but I just watched the video, and the chainlift appears to be bent; most real-life chains are straight. Just to let you know.

What prompted you to choose Scream Machines over NoLimits? It's not a program I've seen around here in a long time.

Well first off I chose Scream Machines over NoLimits because it has a more trains to choose from.

For example Scream Machines has a B&M Flyer, a 4D coaster, and a StormRunner style trains. Plus in the trail you can ride the rides where in NoLimits you have to buy the full version to ride it.
