It looks like the I could create quick mockups for the ramps if only I could
calculte the radius of a thought circle made of MR ramps.
Here's a triangle with a 90 deg's angle AB and the hypotenuse c equlas the
radius:
a=640
b=c-120
c=<unknown>
That gives c^2 = (c-120)^2 + 640^2
or the system:
{ c*sin(v) = 640
{ c*cos(v) = c-120
Is it possible to calculate c from this information?
TIA,
/Tore

I can't recall seeing half of a ramp unconnected to the other half in a layout. Have you found a need for half a (...) (21 years ago, 21-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.trains)
