How big is the drop on Rise of the Resistance Disneyland?

How high is the drop? The final drop on Rise of the Resistance is between 10 and 20 feet, though because of special effects it can feel like more. A lot of people thought it was going to make the ride scary, but personally, I don't think it's intense enough and almost everyone will be able to handle it with no problem.

Here is how Disney accomplishes the effect: As we indicated, the trackless ride vehicle is locked down onto a motion base.
