The only real issues we have is they like to creep down the shafts. So, spacers help a lot.
We were using 1 .8" thick wheel per motor (for a 2 wheel linear shooter). Did you notice using a single wheel caused the frisbee to not fully catch on the second wheel in the shooter? (trying to see if thickness is the cause of our shooting problem)
