Looks like it's not lined up properly.... yet. I am guessing they are still moving it into position?

Yeah, within 10 mins it was aligned perfectly.

It probably will be taller.

It’s gonna touch the clouds like:

Went to IOA this weekend, and all I have to say is that pictures make this thing look incredible, but in person it's a whole other beast.. Riding popeyes you can see how close the top hat is to it will be a cool experience to watch it go up while on Popeyes

Oooo, I have a pic that applies. Sightlines? What are sightlines?

 

[Magic-Man]

Uhhh, is that going to be a wave turn under the first turnaround?

We will see when they add the next piece of track.

I wonder if the top hat will be similar to this?

Sightlines are overrated

:freak: If that is what the trains look like, then I'm moving to Orlando!!

Oops!! I was responding to the picture of the train that looks like the row of JP jeeps that Scott W. posted.

Real talk, knowing how hot the launches get and with the black track and the Florida sun/heat

Is this thing gonna overheat a ton?

Does Cheetah Hunt?

LSM’s don’t really get hot like that unless they’re constantly on, kind of like a laptop battery. I imagine given that both launches are under cover they’ll be just fine. All of Hagrid’s seem to do just fine, even the big final boost at the end.

On another note I’ll be curious to see how people will compare that first launch to Hulks given how punchy Intamin LSM launches can be.

If heating is an issue many launch systems (like Incredicoaster) use misting systems to cool the magnets.

Do you guys think that the tophat may be completed overnight, or in a few days?

Maybe not overnight, but within the next few days I could see it being done.

Good news is that the crane cam is still alive!

I think Hulk has the incline launch to keep it unique enough of a feeling

Although, Intamin launches just hit differently
