Helix Lift Loop Coaster (V2)

Let’s save “space” with the Helix Lift Loop Coaster!

This is the first-ever, brand new concept for a Lego roller coaster elevator mechanism! This type of lift is safer and can save “space” too. Connect many new coaster rail part #80566 “rail 13X13X3 1/3, ¼ circle” to form a beautiful spiral/helix track tower. With a big turntable rotating in the middle by hand or motor, its three vertical axles swipe smoothly along the inner edge of the rail in a perfect clearance to continuously push each cart to climb the spiral track to the top. Then drop coasting down and make a loop.

This MOC needs all three types of new coaster rail parts 80562, 80564, and 80566. But they are not available in any Lego software. So in order to make this entry, I have to model these new bricks by myself. Their shapes may be about 90% recreated because I don't have the real part in hand for reference, but the connectivity dimensions are accurate.
