Flying Wheel

Flying Wheel
Flying Wheel im Schwabenpark

Ein Flying Wheel ist ein Fahrgeschäft, welches eine Kombination von Gyro-Tower und Riesenrad darstellt. Es besteht aus einem Turm, an dem sich ein oder mehrere kleinere Riesenräder befinden, die hoch- und wieder heruntergelassen werden. Während der Fahrt drehen sich sowohl die Riesenräder als auch der Turm.

Flying wheels sind keine schnellfahrenden Fahrgeschäfte, da die Passagiere in den Gondeln nicht angeschnallt werden, die Fahrt ist aber schneller als in einem Riesenrad oder Gyro-Tower. Flying wheels wurden bisher nur in stationärer Ausführung realisiert.
