I did it and made it climb upwards, but I don't have home video capabilty yet, will have soon. I used 1/8th magnets 5 mm apart, 13 per set for gates, drop is 1/4 inch in 3 inches... roller mag is 1/8 thick x 1/2 round, Zooms up 15 degree ramp! Try it, its impressive. I will soon attemt to wrap it around a rotor wheel.
What if you... Draw 2 lines 1 inch apart, Drill 24 (quarter inch) holes total, parallel lines must be 1 inch apart for 12 inches, in a straight line, no V track, each pair of holes gets 16th deeper for 6 holes, use a tiny drop of hot glue and press in 1/2 inch apart, north UP on the right, south UP on left, and start over until you reach the end, cover with the flat plastic and once again see if the roller will pass through each raised gate using momentum to break the gate.
