Re: Frisbee shooter surface?
We just had some HDPE on our floor surface. But we also weren't built to shoot more than a short distance. Our prototype had a wooden surface for the floor, and it shot ever further than our competition bot, but that's more likely due to the additional compression on the prototype.
I think the wheel surface and the surface of the opposite edge it's contacting are far more important in determining accuracy and distance.
If you were to follow any of these people's advice, though, I'd recommend 2468's. Have you seen their shooter? It's deadly accurate from absolutely everywhere on the field. Their's has to be the most consistent shooter I've seen in FRC this year. (Even more consistent than 67, I'd say).
