High-Capacity Flying Chair

Why Pure Rotation: Simpler Mechanics, Lighter Upkeep

The Flying Chair 5FC-14 is a swing ride without a shaking head. It rises, it turns, and it does both with a mechanism that carries fewer moving parts than its articulated relatives. For a maintenance team, that difference shows up in the workshop: fewer bearings to inspect, fewer linkages to grease, and a shorter checklist before the gates open each morning.

Some operators simply prefer the plain soaring feel of a classic flying chair, and the simplicity is part of the appeal rather than a compromise. It also makes the ride easier to hand over to seasonal staff.

Capacity: What Twenty-Four Seats Does for a Park

Twenty-four passengers board every cycle. For a mid-size park, that number changes the shape of the day: a full load clears a queue that a smaller unit would leave waiting, and tour groups gain a single obvious meeting point instead of two.

• Twenty-four riders per cycle
• Suitable for guests over three years old
• Laser-printed graphics that hold their finish
• One attendant can supervise a full load

Height and Presence: Five Point Eight Metres of Sky

At 5.8 m the ride stands above most surrounding structures, which matters more than it sounds. Visitors spot it from the entrance and steer toward it, and a tall swing gives a flat site a landmark it otherwise lacks.

The climb is smooth rather than sharp, so the view opens gradually as the arm rises. Venues adding a second attraction nearby sometimes place a rotary airbus ride close by, so the two share a walkway and a queue line.

Power and Site Readiness: What to Prepare

The drive draws 14 kW at 380 V, so the electrical supply is worth checking before delivery. We send foundation and electrical drawings in advance, so your contractor can pour and wire to the right dimensions while the set is still in production.

Ride Comfort: Tuned for Mixed Ages

The ride is rated for guests over three years old, and the motion is tuned to that spread of ages. Rotation stays steady, the climb is gentle, and the descent gives riders the floating sensation they came for without a jolt at the end. Attendants hold full control of start and stop, so a nervous child can be settled before the arm moves again.

Where a site needs something smaller and easier to relocate, a lighter flying chair delivers the same sensation in a smaller footprint. Parks with a themed area often order a giraffe flying chair alongside it, so a younger queue has its own ride while this one handles the crowd. Both share the FRP-and-steel construction and the CE certification Yueton applies across the range.
