Just so I understand, the "flywheel" part of a shooter would be the extra weight added and not the actual firing wheels themselves? While these wheels are not flywheels, is it safe to say that heavy shooting wheels are technically flywheels in their own right?

Yeah, I guess a heavy shooter wheel would be a flywheel in itself.

You guys might need some sleep. I can't see those wheels producing a useful amount of lift at all.
