Hybrid Ride
The first version with arm on a turn table.

A very heavy counter weight.
| 
| 
| 
| 
However the heavy counter weight was not heavy enough for lifting.
When the arm is in vertical position the counterweight was too heavy.
The whole arm with the gondola and the counter weight was 2 kilos and
not in balance. That was too much for the turn table so I took it away.
| 
| 
| 
| 
| 
I made the arm extend automatically when lifted.
Because of the heavy gondola the arm kept bending and breaking.
Here are some of the many variations I tested until the present one.

The motor was sideways and turned a 1/20 gearbox via a chain.
That was too slow for the wild ride though.
