Fire Bird POV | NoLimits 2 | 5HOP IX 1st Place!

This was my entry into the ninth Five Hours of Power contest! It challenged participants to create a coaster traversing some very complex terrain, hoping between islands and diving through valleys, all in just five hours (more info here: nolimitscentra.... While this coaster is not perfect by any means, I am incredibly happy with what I was able to accomplish in the small time frame.

[@SwissCoasterEnthusiast]

That sense of speed at the end is insane

[@williamshort3620]

That upside down launch would be interesting

[@jacksongrace]

lol yup

[@WolfRaging95]

Pretty cool for a 5HOP coaster.

[@elevatoralarmcoasterandarc1214]

I agree.

[@nolimitsluke]

this is so cool woah

[@elevatoralarmcoasterandarc1214]

Very crazy.

[@Gisgreat-v8w]

Better than the real Firebird at six flags America for sure, looks like an excellent ride

[@king_coaster]

UPSIDE DOWN LAUNCH?? YES PLEASE! How has nobody done this yet?

[@jacksongrace]

Lol I've seen a couple other people make coasters with those, but if you're talking about irl, Intamin has shown a concept with an upside-down launch, so there's a possibility of getting one in the near future.

[@king_coaster]

@@jacksongrace damn, how have I not seen that yet. I’m a failure of an enthusiast 😂

[@extrullorgd4444]

Perfection

[@coryd320]

Inverted launch is so unique!

[@smith9808]

0:38 still don’t know why we haven’t got this element in the world yet. Double zero g roll

[@jacksongrace]

Well it's finally being built on the vekoma at Qiddiya!

[@fatalpoo9270]

How do you make or get terrain like that? And what coaster style was that?

[@jacksongrace]

The style is the Maurer X-Car Coaster, and are you asking about how to get the automatic terrain painting (rocks, dirt, etc) based on terrain slope? Or just how to move the terrain and/or paint by hand. By the way, this scenery used an auto-paint setup.

[@Jaydenfok]

looks pretty cool, however, I feel like the upside down sideways banked launch wouldn't really be that comfortable and that the double heartline roll esque inversion at the end was taken too fast.

[@KTFAMILYsWRLD]

Reminds me of big bear mountain if it had inversions

[@ejector_seat]

how did you get motion blur on ride pov and good graphics or is that on the pro version

[@jacksongrace]

Those require the pro version

[@ejector_seat]

@@jacksongrace ok i have the original version

[@CarlileCoasters]

Now put stand up trains on it

[@indoraptor2407]

I guess, the roll rates are too high

[@jacksongrace]

Yup, that's what happens with just 5 hours
