The best solution I can think of off-hand would be to put a claw on a lead-screw, and having some way of relaxing the claw just enough that you can kick the Frisbees out with a pneumatic cylinder without dropping the them.

Which sounds like a modified Logomotion bot, not a modified Ultimate Ascent bot.
