3D-Printed Roller Coaster DragonStrike
Standing nearly 3-feet-tall, this 3D-printed roller coaster, called DragonStrik features three inversions, or in other words, the mechanism that turns riders upside down and then return them to an upright position. It was created with an Ultimaker 2 printer, Creality Ender 3 printer, and Blender / Fusion360 software.



Other details are sparse, but from the POV clip, we can see that it uses a chain to pull the cart up the initial sheer vertical drop and the madness that ensued resembles something roller coaster enthusiasts are all too familiar with. There does appear to be a total of 12 seats, which would be perfect for some LEGO minifigures.

I’d love to see a ‘scaled up’ POV (either manually or programmatically slow down the play back during high-speed zones so the speed matches up with what it’d be at full scale; that way playback doesn’t rip through 3/4 of the ride instantly. Regardless, awesome project, and great work!,” said one fan.
