Re: Frisbee shooter?

At first we wanted to use a dump system like what was used in lunacy. The issue is the height restriction which is about 84'. We went and bought a disk shooting nerd gun and took it apart to analyze it. We found the it uses a slingshot type of mechanism with an unmotorized motor to provide spin to keep it flying straight. The main issue to trying to create a practical version of that.
