HO scale Comet Roller coaster Model by Coaster dynamix

READ FIRST: You cannot scale gravity. There would be no way to make this slower. If a real wooden coaster was scaled down 87 times to this size it would go this fast as well.

This is a HO scale (1:87) roller coaster model made by coasterdynamix. This kit, was lots of fun to build, requiring patience since many of the pieces are glued together. This kit took me about 3 days to put together and another day to fine tune it so it works. There are 3 cars in thsi kit, but i found having a 2 car train, made the model run more consistent. I would highly recommend this kit. www.coasterdynamix.com

do you think Coaster105 that you can make an instructional video on how to make a rollercoaster like this.

[Coaster105]

@ghrbxwarrior This kit comes with a Manuel. In Google Type in Coaster Dynamix, and then go to store and find the Comet. It includes an easy to follow instruction manuel.

that thing is going like 500mph!

@spfilms4449 actually to scale, it is going normal speed. If a real world coaster was shrunk down to this size, it would go that fast. Gravity is the one thing that is you can't scale.

@Coaster105 Can statix (e.g, The Kings Island Beast train) run on this? Please relpy asap

Great video! How long is the building process? I'm saving up for one of these right now. Also, one more question. Is it really only eight inches tall with the base included? It seems way to small to fit in that layout.

i made this this weekend.....it sucked at first. I used hot glue and that shit raised the supports up.....damn. the car by itself didnt even make it. I took apart the whole thing and i am redoing it.

It does take quite a bit to get it running . I would say maybe 5-6 hours of testing and sanding. Its a very delicate model, and the smallest bump can cause the train to derail. If you slow down and really take your time in the building process it should work for you. Though if you leave it a while without running, then it takes some tuning to get it going again.
