This was one of our major concerns, and this setup was created to test that. We've done a lot of testing, and although the frisbees don't go very far (like, 15 feet), they score very nicely into the three and two point goals. In fact, they seem to defy the laws of physics, they fly straignt as an arrow until they lose speed and glide down backwards.
We've also been driving it around to test alignment. I'm pleased to note that it's very easy to aim with it and align to the feeder stations.
