Take a quick look at real immelmans and dive loops. They're generally not 180 degrees at the top.

^ Could be a good lesson for me, too, so are they about 160, 5 degrees?

Immelmans and dive loops on wingriders and dive coasters tend to be slightly different from normal ones. The timing of the transition is a bit different to account for the trains.

The Immelmann looks a little off because it is so large, but it does follow a slower rotation on account of the heart line for the trains. If you take a look at Griffon or SheiKra's Immelmann's they look similar. The dive loop, however, is meant to be a zero-g stall at the top. It's rotation is much quicker because it occurs before the apex of the loop, making the top a full 180 degrees; if you were riding, you would just be hanging there. Think Mystery Mine a la B&M Dive Machine. That was the feeling I was shooting for - it had not been done on a Dive Machine, and I thought it would be cool to just float upside for a few seconds before falling back down to the water!
