  1. Cool, Thanks for that info. Does the power pack come with the rides? or have to buy it? And what the website address for Faller? Thanks again
  2. Can some one tell me if all the faller theme parks rides are fully working? Are they controled by just a on/off swithch? Thanks Simon
  3. On the alcohol thing i dont think they should sell it there. It kind of like family thing dreamworld, if you want to drink just go to the pub or club. Anyway thats just my opion p.s. i do drink by the way, tequila shots
  4. Yeah i know, I wont be getting one, There a rip off at that price. Anyway
  5. Well i went to hobby co yesterday (while in sydney seeing the archibald prize) and had a look at some of the faller models and had a heart attach at some of the prices. There a bit dear the faller free fall model was $240. Anyway i'm off cya's
  6. Hey all. Well this is what’s happing and I need some help. I am making a working model like the Giant Drop but it is a stand up. I have already made the tower and the track it welded to the tower. I have a motor at the top of the tower with a real for the cable togo around when the gondola is winched to the top. Every thing is ok but I need help with Magnetics. The winch come down like the GD but instead of the way it works I want to use magnetcis to grab it and winch to the top. and the brakes are magnetic as well. Here’s my problem. I need to be able to control the magnetics with battery power, I want to be able to cut the power then the magnetic release at the top and the Gondola will freefall to the bottom and the mag brake will kind of work the same way. Does anyone know anything about magnetics? Thanks simon
  7. Cool man, look good, Where do you guys get theses from and how much? Where i live it hard to even find a model coaster. Thanks
  8. I am voting for the cyclone (big dipper). I have been on both rides and by far the cyclone was the better one FOR ME. I dont really care what the ride looks like or the theming becasue a coaster is still the same coaster with or without the theming/ trees/ landscape or what ever. the demon was really rough when going into the loops. It was like the track was made up of small straight section the form the curves. The cyclone was way smoother when i rode it this year. So That just my say if it makes sence. Anyway Cya
  9. Since where on the GD topic does anyone know how far the tower moves in high winds? I dont some work on the center point tower in Sydney and it moves like 5m sometime so i was just wonder about the GD/ TOT.
  10. What ever. Some of your posts are just crap aswell. Like ^^. I am 22 for your info. You no not everyone can spell, write or do things the way you would like them, Eveyoneis different. I didnt have a very good childhood aswell. My parents both died when young. Stuff like that.
  11. Terms and conditions, who really reads them when they register on forums? It says if you arn't 18 dont enter, That would make me want to enter more and more. Anyway ^I wasnt referring to over 18 for these forums.
  12. Closed until June? What??? Do you read the ride shut downs on the dreamworld site? The Tower of Terror between 31st March and 8th April inclusive. Why even have a title say what you wrote??
  13. I was there twice in Jan this year and the water was running down as you go into the cave kinda thing.
  14. YOU said something about what went wrong with the Gaint Drop? What happened there?
  15. Well i finally got my wheel today, as i said b4 it was a spare and HAS NOT been used! Brand newy
  16. Ok, This is not a go at you!, But people there would not say that Dreamworld is getting a gyro swing to you or other people, They would be putting there job at risk by doing that. Anyway if anyone want to say **** to be cause i said this go ahead. cya
  17. Go for it Obstructure, Say what you think and know!!! Good on you
  18. The wheel arnt the ones that are on the trains. They are just spares that they had. I was told by email that they were then when i rang i was told that they are the "spares" and come with a certificate of authenticity. Anyway i hope you actually get a "real one" that wason the train
  19. Does anyone know where the thunderbolt deconstruction is upto now? is it all down?
  20. ^^ Looks very nice, Cant wait till its all going
  21. i was just saying that he shouldnt have said that until it was true it is. I said that because i read ages ago in a news article that some one posted something like that and they got in **** from it cause the guy got sacked.
  22. Yeah i know they cost that much, And the work that goes into them. But still for $650A i would wnt something that looks a little for realistic, eg. the support how and a station , just things like that , but it still looks ok, I take back my earlier comment^^^,
  23. Did anyone see it one the news tonite? I seen it on ten and win tv, Does anyone know how it got stuck or what happend?
