Discoteca volante UFO

The flying disco coaster is the ride that turns a flat platform into a 33 km/h run. One vehicle of 24 riders climbs a curved rail, spins on a turntable at the top and comes back down the other side. If the plot suits a coaster instead, IL 180Sono un topo pazzo fits 17 X 28 M, e il giradischi volante delivers a similar turn on a flat platform.

It stands 9.4 M, needs a 27 X 13 m plot and ships in two 40HQ containers. For a park adding its first high-energy ride, that is a compact package with a large presence.

What a flying disco does that a flat ride cannot

A flat ride turns you in place. This one turns you in place and moves you along a rail at the same time, so the two motions arrive together and the ride reads as a coaster from the walkway.

That combination is why operators call it a coaster even though it is a single vehicle on a short track. Visitors queue for the movement, not for the height.

IL 12.6 m rail radius defines your plot

The rail radius is 12.6 m and the land area is 27 X 13 M. Get the plot right before you compare prices, because the layout decides how much fencing, queue and landscaping the project needs.

The turntable at the top is 6.5 m across. It is where the ride slows, spins and turns back, and it is the part visitors photograph.

Twenty-four riders, one vehicle

One vehicle carries 24 people and the operating time is two to three minutes, regolabile. That cycle is short, so the queue moves, and the vehicle is large enough that a group boards in one turn.

Operating speed reaches 9.2 SM, Di 33 km/h, with the turntable running up to 9.7 RPM. In normal operation the turntable is set between 7 E 8 RPM, which is where most parks run it.

Guida e potenza: 51.5 kW

The drive is 51.5 kW, split between a 44 kW running motor and a 7.5 kW turntable motor. Transmission is gear drive plus a friction wheel, a combination chosen for a rail this short.

The ride is a fixed installation on a 380 fornitura V, with a design service life of 15 anni. Confirm the cable route and the cabinet position while the foundation is still open.

Where it has been installed

Units from this range run at Vinpearl Phu Quoc in Vietnam, at Owa in Alabama and at Lost Island in Iowa. Those three sites cover a resort, a coastal park and a destination park, which is the range of settings the ride suits.

If your site is a city park with a lighter footfall pattern, IL 180m crazy mouse coaster gives a full circuit in a 17 X 28 m plot and is easier to justify on ticket income.

Price and delivery

The indicative factory price starts at US$78,500, shipping in 2 x 40HQ containers at about 15,400 kg. Trasporto, vengono preventivati ​​i lavori di fondazione e installazione per il tuo sito.
