"Trebuchet" launched coaster test

a new launch design is seen used in my latest coaster test, using a half-loop with a rotating arm that propells the car. i decided to name this coaster Trebuchet, because the way that the launch system functions is similar to that of a real trebuchet.

***final video will be released shortly***
