===Other Information===
* The Mini Suspended Coaster has a mediocre stat ratio in comparison to many other roller coaster types - often its intensity is at least one point higher than the excitement, and its nausea rating is also moderately high.
* This ride tends to have a high excitement rating due to the fact that guest have their feet hanging. Because the car is able to swing freely, this makes the ride very smooth.
* There are several major drawbacks to this coaster type:
* A drawback to this roller coaster is that it can't hold very many passengers. Don't make the queue line too long, otherwise your guests will become unhappy. Also, try to space out the waiting time for the trains' departures so that there is only one or two trains or cars in the station at once.
** The first is that the cars are lightweight and thus more prone to friction, making large hills impractical. This can be mitigated with the Lay-down Cars or Single-Person Swinging Cars from RCT1 as they can run two or three cars per train.
* In both [[RCT2]] and [[RCT3]], each vehicle counts as a separate ride.
** The second is its low support limit of 9 units (45 ft / 15 m). This makes the Mini Suspended Coaster ideal only for small, short designs.
