I’m currently trying to make a 1/64th scale carnival in which the rides can fold up just like the full size ones. These videos are incredibly helpful. Most of the time the exact methods of assembly are just too small but watching these gives me tons of ideas on how to make it work on the models

I bet these engineers were some clever people! Wonder about their process, did they build mockups or anything? Seems impossible to get it done purely on paper and not make any mistakes.

The dragon wagon is a newer version of the super jet/ go gator .. the only differences I see is how the tracks are racked… the go gator / super jet the tracks stacked on top of each other and the train had to be moved to remove the tracks… also on the original super jet the commutator was a tripod that sat in the middle of the track not on a swing out arm .. only thing that these guys did wrong setting up is the wedges are supposed to always point downhill except on the flat of the track which is always in the direction the train moves .. it’s the way I was taught from wisdom.. if they are pointing upwards they are more likely to come loose

Hello Pete nice video as usual👍🏻,I would love to see a setup video of a battech cliff hanger ride a really like this ride but I never have the chance to see it here in France, this ride is build in the same idea of the sizzler:all fit on 1 trailer it can be a good video too see 😉

I'm happy to do any ride setup that is offered to me- although I do have a preference for the older ones. Not only do I need to find the ride, but I need to find an operator that will allow me the unrestricted access to record the process. so, finding the ride is actually the easy part.

Yes, It is stored inside. But on top of that, all their rides are periodically stripped down, rebuilt, and repainted over the winter months. They do two or three every winter.

Yes, if you notice the family version in the "Ride of the week" segment, it is a much bigger ride. It is built on a fifth-wheel trailer. It's over the road weight was 18,000 pounds rather than 12,000 like the one I was documenting
