truthfully, flight numbers were never meant to describe every possible flight path. They instead, only compare each disc to the other discs from the same manufacturer. the example I keep seeing, where people forget this, is when people say "the Luna is a 3/3/0/2 but that's wrong because its nothing like an Envy" well, those flight numbers don't mean it will fly like an Envy, they only mean that the Luna is more stable than a Fierce, and faster than a Challenger.

As an avid disc golfer & a Machinist, I thoroughly enjoyed watching this feat of designing, engineering & execution of this machine. Pretty dope guys. Way to go!

This is exactly what the industry needs to standardize disc flight numbers. Every approved disc should have to be thrown by a machine like this (of course at normal disc golf speeds) and get actual, correct flight numbers for every disc. I would try to get with companies or just throw every disc many many times with that thing and make your own unofficial (official) numbers. Idk, this thing has to have a productive use right?

@ogdiscgolfer

Ай бұрын

I started on a journey to see about a machine like this a couple of years ago for that very reason... one of the problems is the lack of Quality Control and plastics that make the flight numbers vary widely among the same disc. I love the idea of standardizing, but there are so many variables that come into play that it will take someone way smarter than me to figure out. These guys look way smarter, so hopefully they can do it! :D

Ай бұрын

@@ericjepson3765 I agree... I was speaking a little tongue in cheek about intelligence. Because of the fickleness of plastics, even in the same run you can have a wide variety of flight characteristics so you would need to do a very large sample size of each run to get an average flight number, but even that wouldn't allow us to nail down specific flight numbers so that you and I could just grab any disc with a certain set of flight numbers and be sure that it would fly the same. We could get closer/better than the system we have now, but there is always going to be a lot of variance due to the process. That said, they created the perfect machine to get us as close as possible. :D

@wherehouseedm

Ай бұрын

so like, i like the idea but: I have some discs with -2 turn that start to turn less than 100ft from my hand, and some discs with -2 turn that turn 200+ft down the fairway. but each of those turn 2x what a -1 turn disc of the same speed would do with the same release. so, basically, both discs have an accurate flight number, but the flight paths are never going to be the same. this is primarily because the rating system only goes from -5 to +1. there is no possible way anyone could ever describe the flight of every disc with only 7 turn ratings, even taking speed and glide into account.

MVP would like a word with you! If we can standardize flights, with a repeatable robot, we can standardize flight numbers, which would significantly improve our sport!

I have been waiting for this video since I started playing disc golf 25 years ago.....thanks so much!

It is so crazy that it took building an insanely high powered machine like this just to beat David's record by ~200ft. Yeah that is a pretty good margin, but for that amount of power I would have expected to easy double the distance a human could achieve. Just shows how absolutely insane David's throw was for a human to break 1000ft. I would hypothesize that you are still leaving distance on the table with this machine thanks to aerodynamic drag on the lightweight discs moving at that high velocity. I would love to see this thing throw a heavier disc, like a machined aluminum one to cut through the air better. A part two where you throw the rulebook out the window, and try to optimize a custom disc for the sole purpose or squeezing maximum performance out of the machine would be awesome to see.

@contrapasta2454

Probably at the terminal moment a human can optimize every variable throwing a disc. I expected double performance from a machine, too, but I guess they (as seen here) have their own limits, currently. All the raw power in the world, none of the brains.

I'm sure it could be improved but that still shows how crazy the record is when it takes all that from an insane machine to beat it! Great job guys.

Doesn't the radius of the throwing arm affect the spin rate? If i build a machine that moves straight at 200mph, the disc has no spin. In discgolf usually the goal is to move your arm across in a straight line aswell (i know the wrist still rolls). Does it really simulate a throw with such a small radius?

@We.Make.Machines

Ай бұрын

Exactly, the straight line is a misconception. The effective radius of a human throw, i.e. the hip, torso, shoulder, elbow, wrist, and finger rotation all averaged out is equivalent to the effective radius of our machine. So the human and machine are doing the same thing, rotating around a radius, the human just has way more radii linked together with joints. Our rpm to speed slope ends up roughly equivalent to a pro disc golfer, and this is also adjustable.
