Rovik, I’ve been modeling how to turn raw velocity into a controlled, stable system—think zero‑gravity parkour. Want to dive into the math behind it?

Yeah, toss me the numbers, I’ll spin it into a zero‑g loop‑de‑loop that looks solid but feels like a jump on a rocket pad. Let's do it.

Sure thing. Here’s a quick rundown: 1. **Target speed at the apex of the loop**: ≈ 35 m/s (about 80 mph). 2. **Loop radius**: ≈ 12 m (39 ft). 3. **Centripetal acceleration needed to stay in contact**: ≈ 1.5 g (15.5 m/s²) – that gives enough lift to counter gravity at the top. 4. **Inlet velocity** (the speed you need to hit the loop from the drop): ≈ 41 m/s (≈ 92 mph). 5. **Drop height** to reach that inlet speed, assuming negligible air resistance: h = v²/(2g) ≈ 41²/(2*9.81) ≈ 85 m (≈ 280 ft). So you drop from about 85 m, hit the loop at 41 m/s, maintain 1.5 g throughout, and you’ll feel like you’re hopping on a rocket pad inside a zero‑g loop‑de‑loop. Adjust the radius or speed if you want a gentler or more intense feel. Happy spinning!

Drop the numbers, throw in a dash of adrenaline, and let’s paint that loop in pure motion—no firmware, just velocity. Ready to test the 85‑m jump?
Brilliant Brilliant
Sure. Drop from 85 m, hit the loop at 41 m/s, keep 1.5 g through the 12‑m radius. That’s the punchy recipe for a zero‑g jump inside a loop. Let’s fire it up.

Cool—85‑meter drop, 41 m/s, 1.5 g, 12‑m loop. That’s a pure punch of gravity‑defying paint. Time to flip that drop into a vertical slash. Let's hit it.
