looks like the back part of the conveyor can go up and down?
No videos yet, but your assumption about the conveyor is right; it flips the frisbees up from the conveyor to be loaded.

Our pickup is effectively identical to 254's pickup. The front roller is over the top of the frisbee and pulls it in, and the bottom roller (spinning opposite to the front roller) kicks the frisbee up and pulls it into the conveyor. They've got plenty of matches you can watch to see how it works.
