- I know, I know! It's been a while. Here's a quick look at what's on tap for the front yard launch coaster, and why it's taking so long!

I can't wait to see how this turns out. Hopefully you have less snow now. Here in Columbus, Ohio, all our snow is finally gone!
Her in Los Angeles we have had no snow for 40 years
Ayyy Columbus OH gang!! But yeah it doesn't snow too much here, so if you're ever looking for a place to build another coaster... my backyard maybe? (jk)
@@Smurdy1 it took like 6 years in Arkansas for snow I think or was that 8..idk it took awhile
@@Smurdy1 here in the country near Fort Worth we have gotten snow every year, it may not stick but we still get some
I would totally buy a detailed course from you on making roller coasters especially if you go into heavy detail teaching all the math that's involved and how to apply it to coaster building.
30 MPH! Wow! That’s a lot for a backyard roller coaster!
Yeah dont blame you for not doing it in the snow!
Very nice, stay warm Coaster Dad.
I like the name " Railfun " .
Just make sure you tell your minions "railfun" not "railgun".
Railfun! I LOVE IT!
OK...snow's gone... time to get to work, lol
name it Top Will Dragster XD
I wish Will Pemble was my weird uncle or crazy weird dad who did crazy Doc Brown experiments in the backyard. TOOO FUN! Can't wait to see the new projects! I also love the production value with the lapel mic and 1440P! Don't think it goes unnoticed! You're the best, Uncle Pemble! I also love how you look like an enthusiastic weatherman just running around in this crazy snow! xD
Well thank you kindly!
The idea of finding myself in the same paragraph as Doc Brown is delightfully humbling!
I live in CT!!! You're building it in CT? I thought you were building it at your home where the other coaster is. I would absolutely love to come one day and assist. My boys love roller coasters and I let them watch all your videos. I love all your physics based videos and of course your work on the backyard coasters.
Glad to hear it’s still coming. Your neighbours are gona love it!!!!
can't wait for new vids
I can't wait for you to start uploading coaster videos again
Thanks for the update! Looking forward to future progress. 😊
Probably gonna be one of the better coasters in Connecticut tbh
Behind boulder dash
@@liljimKLM yeah Boulder dash is great
I'm cold just watching this video!
Bruh
Can't wait for the New coaster!
Awesome. I can relate as I cant work on mine much either with the weather.
3:14 your kinda like a weather man!
Cannot wait to see your progress on this!
Thanks. Me too!
.
So nice
I love this guy
Omg! Your back!
You should buy a large plot of land, then open a theme park!
That snow needs to shift because THAT sounds AWEEEEEEEEEEEESOME!!!!!
It’s been 5 months, when are u gonna upload again?
Love the idea! I think @JayKay has a great idea with the airtime hill. Name suggestion: Stealth Mini as Stealth is a fantastic UK coaster similar to King Daka and would really mean alot as its one of my favourite coasters.
yooooo i live in CT!!! ayeeee
After the initial top hot clearance you should make an upwards helix like you did your last coaster and then back into the station
Hey Will! Love your coasters. I'm planning on making a simple pvc shuttle coaster for my daughter. Was wondering what kind of wheels/caster to use as well as material of wheels? 2d coaster.
Something like a heartline roll just after the mini top hat element would really tie the whole ride together and add an extra layer of intensity too it, but that might be asking for too much lol. reguardless, i can't wait to see this outcome.
3rd!!!! LETS GOOOOO!!! I love this project!
Name idea: Thruster
Do you have, or can you make a breakdown of how to build the cart that rides on the coaster? Iv watched enough to be comfortable building a gravity wood and PVC track, but don't know what I need to make the cart sturdy, safe, and have the wheels pivot the way it needs to. Thanks in advance.. love the videos, great job on your builds.. definitely inspiring.
What I think of when I hear launch coaster is Wicked at Lagoon.
Since the coaster is going to be a miniature Kingda Ka you should put a miniature Zumanjaro
It’s been almost 3 months... how are the magnets going?
It is snowing here in texas were known for our heat and snow is very rare
You should put an airtime hill between the top hat drop and the corner.
Like Top Thrill Dragster had :)
This coaster has a little airtime that feels big - czcams.com/video/BR3llKVe-CI/video.html
I hope this turns out ok
Hey Will, are you doing okay? Haven't heard from you in a while
If the launch is a succes, perhaps the next step will be a mini Rock 'n' Rollercoaster/Joker's Jinx/Poltergeist/Flight of Fear/Xpress? It looks like you definitely have the space for it!
i would also recommend tyre launch, but that you’ll need lots of motors and tyres.
watch these videos to get some inspiration:
and
hope these helps
You could name it Kiddy Kaw
Will there be any more videos on the building process?
Ideal that may not work, if ya wanna retry the inversion, maybe have a corkscrew over the launch that would look cool
What about the barrel roll?
You could also do something like Xcelerator thats has some more features to make the ride longer
Omg I love ur pfp😂
A drop tower would be awesome! But a very big project..
Yeah. Drop tower scares me as an engineer. My thinking is, “if you don’t want a thing to hit the ground, don’t throw it at the ground!“
@@WillPemble haha that makes sense
cool ! but you should make it a least 25 f high , cant wait to see it anyway
Hey Will I had a question. I want to build a 100ft. long pvc roller coaster track that has a few turns and a hill, but the problem was I live in NY and we get a lot of snow in the winter. Would the track be safe to leave out in the winter? and would it be safe to ride it in the winter? It's going to be 2 feet off the ground at its lowest point and we occasionally get more then 2 feet of snow, so if it is safe to ride it, we may need to dig some of it out. Thanks very much and can't wait to see the launch coaster!
Eh brother! I want to build my own coaster and wanted to know the best way to make a cart for it can you make a video on how to make one and the best supplies to use?
a bit late sure but, you should have a loop after the top hat
Have you considered using CAD at all for the design/planning (if you haven't already!) ?
Name idea: bottom thrill dragster
Okay, I thought the whole reason why you can conceived a launch coaster was so that you can build at your buddies place where there wasn't much space Now You're Building at your new house and there's lots of space. what happened to the one that you had designed and mostly built at your buddies place? Is it still going in at his place
8 months and a nice Summer later - still nothing to come 😂
I know, I know! It's been a crazy year for everybody.
Update coming on Saturday 11/13/2021!
When will u post something new?
How are you going to make sure that a Rollback wont happen? The big hydrolic and magnet based launches either has built in breaks or can use the lsm as a method for slowing to train, but with building in automatic breaks or making lsm breaks, how are you gonna figure that one out?
If I were you I would mirror it, I feel like that would be the best positioning
I think you should call the launch coaster “Go! The king of the forest...” or “Stealth”
Stealth is already a name to a ride that is like Kingda Ka, Top Thrill Dragster, and Red Force. Not being mean at all.
@@debone7238 it’s fine, I just thought of it lol
Why is this man not hired my intamian? He is literally building a king DA KA Clone in his back yard.
its been 5 months
You should put a zero g roll after the top hat
Yeah because thats easy just to do
Hey man! Missing your content these days. How’s everything going? Anything we can do to help?
Will plz comeback
The thing is, that example is quite small so you can turn your entire backyard into a theme park!
So where are you? 7 months MIA no Launch Roller Coaster! ...
Haha it's been 5 months any updates
Hello!
Will Pemble, I'm trying to build a coaster in my backyard but I am really confused and don't know any engineers. I really need some help, thanks
where have you been? Please give an update soon
Hey Cristiano -
I've been in Los Angeles, Connecticut, San Francisco, Wyoming, Utah, Iowa, Illinois, Pennsylvania, and five or six other places, driving around, working and living in the custom sprinter van I built (czcams.com/users/hackmyvan).
UPDATE drops tomorrow morning! Thank you for asking ❤️
Where is the result?
I know you dont want to build a loop again lol
I'll admit, it was a bit of a trauma :)
But let's never say never!
@@WillPemble when will the next update be ?
Then you should built a drop tower on the supports
why not use compressed air for the launch ? idk if it’s cheaper or more expensive tho 😅
I think it’s because it’s cheaper and more reliable I believe.
@@coolkid7029 yessirr
Air launch is a real possibility. It would certainly be less expensive and probably more forgiving from an engineering standpoint. I'm gonna do a bit more research on that!
@@WillPemble but if the compressed air is strong enough to push the coaster car up like u said 15 ft, then theres no need for the tires
@@WillPemble if u need any help or qns u can message me on instagram.
hi
Is it still cold
no its really hot by this point easily in the high 70s low 80s at times sometimes even reach 90s he is just not posting I feel he is gonna surprise us with the launch coaster
Still Waiting
It’s been a while, can we get an update
Soon! I have an idea forming in my head!
Be careful with rollbacks, if there is no way to stop the train and it rolls back it could do the track backwards and you could have a very uncomfortable experience.
Yo got that right, Evan! Once upon a time during a build, this happened: czcams.com/video/XfrXo6NA-Ys/video.html
Update
Plz
You still alive?
wheres the new update its 2024!\
It's been a very, very weird few years, wouldn't you say? Happy to report things are taking shape here in the Connecticut yard. The project has even found a name: ConnectiCOT. TBs of video already shot, starting to edit things together. I think you'll be pleased :)
