Self Control Plane Ride is a rotating and lifting amusement ride. Its core feature is that riders can independently control the ascent and descent of their cabins, while the entire ride rotates around a central axis, creating a simulated flight experience.
A Self Control Plane Ride typically uses a central structure (such as a rocket-shaped or decorative tower) as its axis. Multiple airplane-shaped cabins are connected by arms, rotating around the center and freely rising and falling. Each cabin is equipped with a joystick or button, allowing riders to control the plane's ascent and descent, enabling interactive chases or shooting games. During operation, the ride is often accompanied by dynamic music, colorful lights, and simulated sounds (such as takeoff and landing sounds) to enhance immersion.
The structure of a Self Control Plane Ride generally consists of mechanical, pneumatic and hydraulic, and electrical systems, ensuring smooth and reliable rotation and ascent/descent. The cabins are often made of materials such as fiberglass, which are brightly colored, corrosion-resistant, and structurally stable. Common types include eight-seat lever planes (suitable for children) and multi-seat models with 12, 16, or 24 seats, which can be customized to meet site requirements.
The Self Control Plane Ride is suitable for parks, amusement parks, squares, and other similar venues, and is suitable for visitors of all ages, especially children. Due to the rotating and ascending/descending motions, it is quite thrilling; therefore, safety precautions must be followed when riding, and children should be accompanied by an adult.
