I recall seeing another thread a while back where a team had a similar issue and found the cause: the frisbee was slightly climbing up the wall of the guiderail -- it was not staying flat on the base. Can you take some video with a camera angle looking "down the barrel of the gun" - you might be able to see this effect.

If that's what's happening in your case, you might be able to solve it by tilting the guiderail slightly toward the frisbee, or adding a piece to keep the frisbee from climbing the guiderail.
