Space Shot vs G-Force

Post by TopGun »

I was wondering which simulator everyone liked better, between Space Shot and G-force, I like Space Shot the best.


I went on a ride like G-force at the beach, and the ride at the beach was much more powerful and fun.

I prefer Space Shot to G-Force, and the Centrifuge at AC above both options. (And the MAT above all...)

It's less like an amusement park ride and more like what real pilots use for training. It only holds two people at a time and has actual seats instead of those things you lay on. If I'm not mistaken, the G-Forces you pull are more or less the same.

Oh, if it is like what real pilots use for training, how do they make sure campers don't pass out?

The G load isn't very high. People pass out when they pull 8 Gs, the centrifuge only will give 3.2 Gs
