Re: help with shooter

The team was using the kit wheels, the 8 inch rubbers but we're switching to the Plaction with tread because it's literally burning the plastic off of the frisbees. Hoping the tread will give it some more traction and grip to shoot it. It's also been giving issues of peaking about 5 feet off the ground only 8 feet away then promptly drops. We have the kit motors as well but have been able to test it at different speeds so that's helped a little bit with distance and height.
