Nah, just a pet peeve.



Rotating a small object 90* clockwise or counter clockwise is a simple quick motion.



Ironic Boston is the Avatar here. How bout that game tonight?

what About a game?

It's whisper-quiet for a coaster, too!

Looks like the middle cars get the most "swing" -- that's where I'll be!

I wanna see what it looks like once you have passengers and weight added to the cars. That should increase the swing effect. I have a feeling though what looks like very little swing from the outside point a view will turn out to feel like a lot more when riding.

That actually looks like a cool coaster.

No, but as I said and offered a pre-emeptive apology, it happened quickly and I just hit record as the train came up the top. I waited probably 20 minutes to get another better shot, but didn't see it happen again. I'm sure a better video will come soon from someone.

You did great, especially when you scrambled and had to shoot from the hip. iPads orient the video to the correct position

....'You can please some of the people some of the time...'

The car I'm in will probably have the most swing. More weight equals more swing right. My kids will be fighting over who gets to ride with dad.

New Harry Potter coaster?

Not really a coaster... It's will be an amazing dark ride.

Regarding the speed of the tests, I am affraid it will be the fastest it will ever go. When new coasters are tested, to make sure they clear the circuit, they will put the hardest and fastest wheel compounds on the cars to make sure it complete it. As testing go, they start switching wheels with slower ones and come up with the combination that is the best from a maintenance and confort point of view.

So cool. Thank you both for posting! It's exciting!

 

[BaconPancakes]

Is it that hard for people to turn their phone the proper direction for recording a video?

Rude...

 

[The Empress Lilly]

I GLUED A CAMERA TO THE FRONT VEHICLE AND GOT AN ON-RIDE VIDEO RIDE-THROUGH!!

I'm not going to post it, my filter setting wasn't exactly right and I dread the insults.

Nevermind that....T&A?? This ride is sounding better!

Edit: (oh, wait, that's test and adjust)

yes yes yes... Sorry, I was on vacation the last week.. (latest trip on the Dream).... Anyway.. .T&A w/heartbeat is indeed Test and Adjust with live passengers.. I haven't gotten back into the swing of things since returning from vacation so I don't know what has changed while I was out, but last I knew we weren't far off of it..

T&A w/heartbeat is generally done with Imagineering folks only.. Sometimes management will get a ride in just to experience portions of the ride early.. But most of them generally insist on waiting for the near-complete experience before partaking.

Gosh, people are so ungrateful. Thanks for the link @CTXRover ! can't wait to ride this next fall!

 

[Belle2013]

This looks like the coolest coaster! Thanks for the video
