Re: Belt Shooter
assuming loaded speed is approximately 5k rpm, your linear belt speed is approximately 88mph (great scott!) In a perfect world, your Frisbee will be leaving your shooter at 44mph.

We are somewhere in the neighborhood of a belt speed of 120mph. (Frisbee speed of 60 mph) as long as it all stays together.

Re: Belt Shooter
Once we hit 80% power we didn't notice much difference.

The monsters are creating a design to travel ~150 mph. I really hope the belt doesn't tear itself apart. I'm actually worried that it will rip itself apart .
