Does anyone know the track angles for the different slopes. (medium and steep)

i am currently working on tubes but i can not find the right angle for either of them.

thanks

Why is it that people cant seem to just reply if they know the answer or know where i may find the answer. if they dont know but they see something wrong they always post a remark about it. I thought that the mods were supposed to help the forum stay nice and tidy but some people would rather waste space on someone elses thread just to say something.

You could try working it out for yourself...

Using some of the 1u wall heights you should be able to work out how much the medium slope rises over the course of a single square.

A single square is 4u. Therefore to find the angle you do atan(h/4). your calculator might refer to atan as arctan or inverse tan.

Whilst the angle isn't on the facts and figures page all of the information described above is in one of the diagrams.



Furthermore, insulting people won't get your question answered quicker. The trick is to know How to ask smart questions (http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html).
