Golfie Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Sounds like a Robo-Arm and an "El Condor" all in one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedimaster1227 Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 So... is this just a project you thought of, or is it something that you have been shown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingspin Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Hmmm. Seems a lot like Legoland's Knight's Tournament http://www.prnewswire.com/mnr/legoland/21589/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 I'm not sure I understand the point of this. If it's a personal project it should probably go in the "games, models, etc" forum. If it's an actual park project in development, you haven't posted any insightful information. I'm going to lock this thread until Weetopia PM's me and tells me what it's all about. --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeow Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 I'm pretty confused too. But the concept art looks great! Did you draw that? That's really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xascher Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 Wow, LOVE IT!!! Being a devout maurer soehne fan, I can understand the concept. But I noticed a few things. Instead of having a robo tower, your having more of a robo... mini tower, with all of the arms coming from the top. But the track, that's something I didn't expect, but I think it'd make a great ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedimaster1227 Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 ^I don't think its that people didn't understand, but that you didn't start out the thread by explaining yourself well enough. Even Robb had to ask, and that shows that maybe you didn't give us all of the information we needed to start with. Anyways, I will continue to watch this project, as I myself am working towards a job in Imagineering at Disney, so these kinds of ideas always interest me...

thefitness Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Neat Concept.So it's on a track and the "Kraken" arms move around the ride vehicle,but the vehicle is raised from the track by a robotic arm? Anyways those concept drawings are really cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xascher Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Nice work! Anyway, how would you load the passengers for this ride. In Maurer Soehne's original robo tower, the passengers are loaded from the tower itself. Would the passengers be loaded from a station, or a double decker station, or is there some other loading method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xascher Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 AMAZING Love the theme. Does this all take place horizontaly, or verticaly, so the wheel is like a ferris wheel... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onewheeled999 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Wow, that's an amazing idea! But it would be pretty hard to make, with all those arms moving freely, having them not collide at all! Though it would be cool having very near collisions with those boats. Also, the Kraken would be very big. According to the drawings, it would be about 30-40 feet wide, and even taller than that. If it's just sitting there, it would be just like sculpting clay. Otherwise, it'll take months of computer engineering and things like that. Man. It's weird how I can type so much while saying so little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
