Linear Sychronous Motors, they are what is used to power most launch coasters and use a "Eddy Current" by creating their own magnetic field to accelerate the train, examples are like Taiga at Linamakki, VelociCoaster at Universal's Islands of Adventure, and Abyssus, at Energylandia@@Way_rilliam_wohnson
Former builder here. Weights under the trains (Pennies, magnets, etc) can really help keep momentum. I even used clay before. They will require you to beef up your supports a little though. Also, staggering your grey rods in your supports using small “granite” or yellow rods will keep your supports MUCH firmer and solid
This is a very large and intricate build, it took a lot of planning and work and you should feel proud. The problem I have with K’nex roller coasters in general is that if you had a human small enough to ride the coaster they wouldn’t survive it. The relative speeds, the resulting G’s they’d experience, and the twists and turns would turn the little human to a skin bag of minced organs and broken bones. I’m a ball machine guy myself because there’s stuff that is infinitely cool you can build, but there’s no thought to comparing it to a real life object, and whether it would be survivable.
Although you’re right to a certain degree, one should keep in mind that when you scale down a rollercoaster, the mass of the trains should also be scaled down. The plastic trains he uses are relatively much too light compared to the real thing. If you slow the video down to 0,5x, you can see that the forces and speeds already look much more realistic.
You can't scale gravity. Because its smaller its going to look like its going much faster. If you blew it up to full size it would go the same speed as the real thing so technically its right. Lol. Dam physics! Haha.
This is definitely the largest knex coaster on record I’ve seen in years since Balrog. The air time hill is absolutely incredible and one of the largest in knex. The mountains add a nice touch to this amazing project.
Pretty insane! I can't imagine just how crazy the real falcon's flight will be (if it actually opens!) It would be super cool if you mounted a mini camera to a train to get pov footage
This is next level. Every part of this video had me laughing, I was nervous time after time after seeing how many things had to be put into storage. AND ROLLER COASTER DREAMS? I HAVE THOSE TOO. too many. That base which uses no 7 way connectors is genius, like my jaw dropped because it looked so cool and effective. nerd stuff haha what a crazy 2 and a half months for you. so cool to see it all finished.
I don’t know what might be the largest K’nex coaster ever built, but yours is surely in the running. Puts my CDX-Blocks+LEGO extended Xcelerator (unfinished & stuck in development hell) to absolute shame.
Awesome work, it really shows the capabilities of knex. It’s impressive how far these recreations have came recently , and everything seems to be fairly proportional in size to one another. Good job, looking forward to the next project.
I'm a rollercoaster enthusiast and this is really cool! Use to try and make my own Knex coasters when I was younger but they never turned out this good!
@CoasterObsessed this vid is amazing and we appreciate the time and effort you put into these vids. Most of youtube is gaming where you sit down and look at a screen, but you put effort and physically put together these projects. Good job keep on making content and grinding so you can make it to a big youtuber 👍🏼
I love how that boosted lifthill turned out! But also you gave me terrible flashbacks to that feeling when you wake up to find a big part of your coaster toppled over in the wind.
That was amazing my friend! I love rollercoasters and I think I have now caught the same bug as you! I’m going to start a k’nex coaster obsession! Hahah! Well done on that triumph of a build! Love it 🎉
mannnn why couldn't it have been anywhere elseeeeee. Shoutout to all the cishet white guy coaster enthusiasts yall go have fun on this shit. Like a 100ft drop and it feels like a predrop... I need to coup the government of Saudi Arabia just so i can get on this thing LOL awesome vid too btw, really impressive :)
I really like the fact youtube has these sort of coaster updates. I never woulda been able to do this style I was an old sscoasters user though, like what you're doing here. the accurate support structure was very nicely done. you have a unique build style!
Please consider Subscribing! New coasters coming soon!!!
You should get a small clip-on mic for those shots where you're far away from the camera :)
I got one part way through the video 😂
@@CoasterObsessedoh ok Im only like a quarter of the way through 😂
Just shared it on my channel!
i love this video but in falconsflight is alsow a loop. where is ist ?
This model is actually a bigger ride than some kiddie coasters
yeah lol
It is 😮😮
3rd
Cool
If your baby is 2 inches
Can't believe Knex doesn't sell LSMs yet.
Real!
What is lsm?
@@Way_rilliam_wohnsonIt's a linear synchronous motor. They're used as a method of launching coasters

Absolutely epic project dude. Amazing work! 🤯 The super booster was craaaazzyy

The pov is having trouble but I’m working hard at it!
@@CoasterObsessed awesome!
Great! Waiting for the POV
Your hard work and dedication is amazing! The coaster is fantastic, well done! 👏👏👏
Thank you so much!!!
This is probably one of the coolest Knex creations that I've seen on youtube! Amazing job getting it that accurate!
building in the dark with a headlamp 😂. amazing build bro!
OH MY GOODNESS YOU ARE INCREDIBLE
So cool, nice work.
Thank you! Your comment means a lot!
Its absolutely insane how good of a job you dit with this! that airtime hill looks amazing! Cudos on all the hard work and time you put into this.
15:45 got me trippin 🤯🤯🤯 ITS SO POWERFUL

what a crazy 2 and a half months for you. so cool to see it all finished.
Thanks bro! It was so fun working through this with you!!!
I have had way too many dreams about theme parks. Way, way too many.
Wow this is amazing! So much work involved!
This is nuts.
this man makes his videos on an iPhone (I think) and makes some of the best content on yt, absolute amazing.
The only thing not done on my SE is thumbnails lol
C'est le meilleur roller coaster k'nex que j'ai vu ! Il est superbe, un gros gg pour le travail de fou !
Man, this is so insane! Killin it! The vids are getting better and better too!
I’ve been looking forward to seeing this project completed. Great job.
this was such a good video to watch keep up the good work!
You've got an impressive brain on your shoulders, methodical, but also creative, perfect for engineering- I hope it doesn't go to waste.
Borderline threat 💀💀
I don’t know what might be the largest K’nex coaster ever built, but yours is surely in the running. Puts my CDX-Blocks+LEGO extended Xcelerator (unfinished & stuck in development hell) to absolute shame.
Amazing job. The scaling is flawless. The camel back looks incredible!
I don't know what's more beautiful, the majestic mountains in the background or that glorious roller coaster rattling through the foreground.
Imagine Being His Neighbor And Going Outside And You See Bro Just Casually Making Falcons Flight In His Backyard
Right on dude. So happy to see Knex coasters being built and the bar continuing to be pushed! Fantastic work
I did not know you still had to go to school, but awesome Rollercoaster
The amount of dedication on this is insane and the result is amazing. Well done on this project and I hope there will be many more.
You can count on it!
Great job, and congrats on all the channel growth! I see a Phineas and Ferb coaster coming in the future...
That’s going to be an interesting one!!
Dropped a sub! Insane build bro. Very impressed with your work and dedication!

Just adore your commitment to the project! What a backdrop too! Honestly, you should be rewarded with an invitation to the real thing's premiere.
That would be awesome

This is awesome man! Can’t believe you were actually able to build it!
That's super sick!🔥
SICK! I Have A Planet Coaster Recreation On My Channel But This Is Next Level Man!
00:18 falcons flight will not be opening as soon as thought because an absolutely giant man dropped the train down the lift and crashed it
Great video! Also, I cant get over the fact that this video is 19:59 long, was that intentional?
Ya
Dude it’s crazy that you build these. You gotta come to cedar point this summer to ride TT2
THAT WOULD BE SO COOL! Ima try my best to see what I can do
Dude this is EPIC!
That thumbnail is amazing!
Insane dude! Awesome
WELL DONE MY FRIEND GREAT ACCOMPLISHMENT YOU ARE GOING TO GO FAR IN LIFE WITH YOUR ENTHUSIASM
New sub❤
That was amazing! Congratulations on accomplishing that!
Great job!
Sick thumbnail dude! The amount of effort you put into this project is nuts!! Can’t wait to see what you do next.
I was so investeeeedddddd. That's amazing. A bucket list coaster for sure.
Oddly enough, came from your Reddit post! This is amazing! Be very proud!
mannnn why couldn't it have been anywhere elseeeeee. Shoutout to all the cishet white guy coaster enthusiasts yall go have fun on this shit. Like a 100ft drop and it feels like a predrop... I need to coup the government of Saudi Arabia just so i can get on this thing LOL

Damn, I love it when people can do the projects they are really passionate about it through TH-cam, great work!
18:23 those mountains are beautiful! What state is this?
Utah!
I really like the fact youtube has these sort of coaster updates. I never woulda been able to do this style I was an old sscoasters user though, like what you're doing here. the accurate support structure was very nicely done. you have a unique build style!
Your better than most knex TH-camrs, hope the algorithm serves you well
This was sick great video
congrats on 10k subs!!!
Amazing video. New subscriber.🎉
Amazing vid 👍🏽
Let’s go! sad I had to miss seeing it in person
All good bro!
That's just incredible. Congratulations!!!
Amazing man. You are the Knex Master.
I really like this video especially the coasters I hope you accept quest because can you build hyperia it also looks cool🎉
The pure dedication is crazy and made for an amazing turn out
I thought I was the man when I built a 2-car garage out of Legos.
Absolutely marvelous!! Bravo!
Ain't No Way We Got Mini Falcons Flight Before Falcons Flight 😭
This is so cool man! Congrats on finishing this, and I admire your commitment to the project.
Absolutely love this, your the reason i got a few sets and started building my own designs, can’t wait to see what you come up with in the future
W Mans, hear me out but a great great idea with all that new knex you should try to build the tallest knex coaster ever!
I want to do that at some point!
@@CoasterObsessed I speak for everyone when I say we'd love to see it!
Your incredible dedication and hard work really shine through! The coaster you've created is fantastic, can't wait for future projects ahead!
This is genuinely incredible, huge congratulations to you!!
This is insane! Great work. New sub here!
This is insane.. I’m amazed. Shooting up that balcony, then coming over the 500ft hill part, had my hyped. 🙌🏾
Just freaking AWESOME!
You have a beautiful view from your backyard.
The coaster is pretty alright too I guess.
😂
That view from your backyard is crazy! Where is it?
You are the King. I am so impressed by you. You need a indoor space like a hall or something. This is just to good. Congratulations
Yes! So cool.
this is absolutely incredible! i cant imagine what it would be like to have this in your house. i'd play with this everyday haha!
The knex maker and you is the best duo
This is incredible. No idea how it has not gone viral yet.
the top hat is so perfect
This is insanely awesome!!! You should be proud of yourself !!!
Sick man!
CONGRATS & "Follow Your Bliss" ^_^
