Engineering & Craftsmanship

Overview

The W-Type Dream Flying Car is a fixed roller coaster that combines a W-shaped track with a rotating turntable. Riders sit on the turntable, which spins as the car moves back and forth along the track, creating a dual motion similar to surfing. The ride accommodates up to 24 passengers per cycle and runs for approximately 180 seconds. It is designed for amusement parks, family entertainment centers, and resorts looking for a compact, interactive thrill ride.

Design and build

The ride features a colorful fiberglass turntable with integrated lighting, giving it an attractive appearance. The drive system uses electric motors and a steering gear to move the car via tyre friction along the track. A separate motor drives the turntable through a slewing ring. The track height is 9.8 m and the ride height is 9.6 m, with a maximum speed of 42 km/h and a turntable speed of 10.0 r/min. The design incorporates multiple interlock controls for safety, including restraint closure, air pressure, and ride start. The ride is designed to the standards required by your market, confirmed per project.

Site and installation

The W-Type Dream Flying Car requires a footprint of 60 m by 12 m and is a fixed installation. It operates on a power supply of 3N+PE 380V/220V 50Hz with an installed capacity of 100 kVA. Site preparation should account for the track layout and turntable placement. Installation should be carried out by qualified personnel following the manufacturer's instructions. The compact footprint makes it suitable for parks with limited space.

Operating notes

The ride has a cycle time of approximately 180 seconds and can accommodate 24 riders per cycle. It features a range of interlock controls to ensure safe operation, including restraints, air pressure, and position sensors. Emergency rescue procedures are in place, with evacuation times estimated at 5-15 minutes depending on the scenario. Regular maintenance and daily inspections are recommended to ensure reliable operation. Training for operators is essential for safe and efficient ride operation.

Frequently asked questions

The questions park developers ask most about this ride — answered without the sales language.

01What is the maximum speed of the W-Type Dream Flying Car?

The ride reaches a maximum speed of 42 km/h along the track. The turntable rotates at 10.0 r/min. These speeds are verified specifications and may be adjusted based on site conditions and operational requirements.

02How many passengers can ride at once?

The W-Type Dream Flying Car accommodates up to 24 passengers per cycle. The ride duration is approximately 180 seconds, allowing for efficient throughput. Actual capacity may vary based on loading procedures and operational practices.

03What are the power requirements for this ride?

The ride requires a power supply of 3N+PE 380V/220V 50Hz with an installed capacity of 100 kVA. It is a fixed installation, so proper electrical infrastructure must be in place before installation. Consult with local authorities for specific electrical codes.

04Safety

Multi-Layer Safety Protection

Every ZhipaoRides product is engineered with redundant, fail-safe systems that meet or exceed international amusement ride safety standards. From electrical interlocks to structural redundancy, we leave nothing to chance.

  • Mandatory Safety Interlock

    Forced electrical interlocking prevents any unauthorized or unsafe startup. The system requires all safety conditions to be met before operation can begin, eliminating human-error risks.

  • Triple-Layer Cabin Door Protection

    Three independent door opening safeguards — mechanical lock, electrical sensor, and control system verification — eliminate passenger entrapment risk under all operating conditions.

  • Redundant Braking System

    Dual independent braking mechanisms with fail-safe engagement ensure controlled deceleration even in the event of primary system failure, meeting Class A ride standards.

  • Real-Time Condition Monitoring

    Continuous sensor-based monitoring of vibration, temperature, and load distribution provides instant anomaly detection and automatic shutdown when parameters exceed safe thresholds.

  • Emergency Evacuation System

    Integrated auxiliary drive and manual release mechanisms enable safe passenger evacuation from any position, including during power outages or extreme weather conditions.

  • Full-Life NDT Quality Control

    Non-destructive testing at every production stage — from raw material to final assembly — ensures structural integrity backed by 25-year design life certification.

Our safety systems undergo rigorous third-party testing and certification to meet or exceed GB 8408 (Chinese national standard) and EN 13814 (European standard) requirements. Each ride is equipped with multiple redundant safety mechanisms, ensuring passenger protection at all times. From the factory floor to the final installation site, our engineering team conducts comprehensive safety audits, load tests, and operational simulations before any ride enters service.
