They more or less stay where they are. The 5-disk mode is easy to line up perfectly every time (3 shots + 2 under pyramid). We've been eyeballing the alignment for the 7-disk without too much hassle. If one of our wheels hits the edge of the frisbee they "self-align" and center themselves between our wheels without disrupting our path significantly.

Antonio implemented the Killer Bees autonomous scripting code for LabVIEW (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=95120), so a lot of credit goes to them for sharing their work. It's been tremendously helpful, and really made the process of fine tuning & implementing multiple routines much easier.
