Re: Disc Diameter Variation

After finally understanding the problem we were able to resolve it with a modification, but I thought I would try to gauge how common this variation may be by asking if any other teams have observed the same thing.
I remember you guys talking about that with us while we were down there, but we didn't have a an issue with that. However, back home on the practice bot, our KOP discs have room to slide around and stack weird, thus jamming our shooter from time to time.

I'd say the solution for both of us is to maintain adjustability in our buckets.
