Hi guys, we had a similar design, and just wanted to give you a heads up:

If you are planning to compress the frisbie in order to get better traction, the frisbie might deform and touch the ceiling of the shooter, causing friction and generally bad shots.

we solved this by replacing the ceiling with a conveyor roller strip: https://www.surpluscenter.com/images/p1-2940C.jpg

good luck!
