No feedback at all, we found the frisbees flight was not very speed sensitive. We used light wheels that recover quickly. The rear motor was set to 70% and the front to 100%. There was a 1.75 second delay between shots to allow recovery.

Motors are mini CIMs, banebots wheels (orange tread), about 3/4" compression.
