Revisiting the Cantilevered Coaster Concept

I dug out some CAD simulations I created five years ago for the cantilevered coaster concept. As the inventor, John Hogg, told us back in 2010: The CRC (Cantilevered Roller Coaster) system uses two tracks, each with a vehicle chassis on it, one above the other. A support arm is mounted to the lower chassis on pivot bearing, and runs up through a gimbaled, sliding bearing in the upper chassis. The guests ride in the themed portion of the vehicle mounted to the top of the arm on a pivoting bearing, above the upper track and chassis. As the complete vehicle moves along the track course, the upper track and chassis serve as a kind of fulcrum for the support arm. The lower track follows a slightly different course than the upper track, and this causes the top of support arm and the guests to swing in a side to side yaw movement, pitch front to back, and an up and down vertical stroke relative to the upper track in a its kind of like ride systems employing a multi-axis simulator sitting on a tracked chassis (i.e. Indiana Jones/Spiderman), but without all the hydraulics and servos of those systems, plus the ability to move on an undulating, coaster-style track. http://www.coaster101.com/2017/01/04/...
