Give more a more detailed description of your prototype and maybe a cause can be identified:

1) linear or curved shooter ?

2) if linear, one or 2 wheels ?

3) what motor(s)

4) what gear ratio

5) what motor voltage, current, and speed ?

6) how much compression ?

7) did you have a cover to prevent axial motion of the frisbee as it is being spun by the wheel ?

8) quantify what you mean by "sad results"
