Part 2: Saint. Innova savant. Westside Stag. DGA sail (I always say it’s a 9 5 -1 1 despite its vastly different flight numbers), zetas moon s blend, I’d also throw in some 9-5-2-2 discs like the Valkyrie (despite the 4 glide). I work in a disc shop one day a week and I always recommend this series to newbies who want to learn about different discs. Love the flight numbers don’t matter series.

@@justwondering1926 I’m just not familiar with that one. I got a Sail thinking it would be a really flippy driver but it’s like a 9 speed crave to me. I bag a hatchet and a sail to fill that understable and straight lines but looking for something a step up in stability to pair with the other 2. The Sail has a 1.9 centimeter rim, which effectively makes it a 9 speed despite the 11 speed it’s listed as. But I’d be happy to see him test the pipeline and anything else people think fits that bill.

I use an Undertaker for this slot. 300-350' straight with a slight turn and a nice fade at the end. Any more power than that and it gets too flippy, which kinda negates the control part. As a beginner it was the first disc I was able to break 300' with and it flew farther than my distance drivers (which I shouldn't have even been throwing at the time). This and the Heat are great introductions to fairway drivers and for learning to get that nose down.

When I started playing, the escape was a go to for me in the woods, and it would just fly dead straight. I stopped playing for a few years and came back to it, with apparently a lot more arm speed. All of my old escapes were way too flippy now, and all of the new ones I bought were more of the same. Here started my search. I thought the Saint pro would be a good fit, but was surprised at how flippy they were for me. I recently discovered the Lots, and it went straight in the bag. The straight flight makes it fly exactly like escapes used to for me, while also bagging two thunderbirds when I need a bit more stability

The stability of the aura construct is more dependent on how domey it is, than anything. The one you have is pretty domey, which means it'll be pretty flippy. That level of dome tends to only get run in aura and nebula ethereal, from what I've seen. If you look on infinite, you'll see aura constructs (usually low weight) that are flat enough they almost look like different discs. Those are what I replaced my undertaker with, and they're a solid replacement (though they're longer than the undertaker). For more consistency, the Ethos plastic is more similar, run to run - though a bit more stable overall than the flat aura ones. Think of it as the difference between an undertaker (aura), and an Athena (Ethos).

But for a long time it was my escape and innova champ savant. escape turns when new savant doesn't at 350'. But the savant is now flippy at about 2 years of wear and 65+ mph arm speeds, like my lucid escapes were new at about 58 mph arm speed. Basicslly I think I need to find a thunder bird or anax and see how they work for me ... Misisng an 'over stable" disc between a 7 and 12 speed has been rough recently.

I really like the Prodigy FX3 in this slot. It’s actually keeping the Tesla out of my bag atm.

I got a construct in a mystery box and the parting line is much higher in the profile, it's so over stable I can't throw it. Maybe different runs differ greatly

Discmania Vanguard and Discraft Vulture are equivalent to Thunderbird (in theory).

I throw a k1 lots! A lighter 167g one for flip to turn with an overall straight flight and a 174g Goodpasture tour series one for flip to flat with fade just like in the video

a beat in kastaplast stål flies somewhere inbetween thunderbird and firebird so there's really no need for another disc in that slot

The Champion Thunderbird has kept me from bagging this specific slot. Its only downside for me is the flashing on forehands, but so far, the pain is worth the result. The new C-line FD1 is awesome though, so that CD1's very tempting!

Dude, just sand off the flashing. The manufacturers didn't mean it to be there and it's entirely legal to remove.
@DavidCornelius

@@SheaParkes yeah, I should. I was hoping it'd smooth out through use, and then I was worried that sanding it might make it less stable. I should value my skin more.

Flashing does increase stability (because it's functionally raising the PLH). But I would personally not suggest relying on flashing to make something more stable. In addition to being painful, one good road skip can take most of that off at once. There are plenty of stability of Thunderbird out there. Go somewhere in person and grab a high wing champ. Or if online try a halo star or a big jerm thunderbird for more stability.

I throw the Dynasty. It has been super neutral for me. The 'halo' run is a touch more stable, but also a lot more domey.

Aura construct to me started as a flip up to flight and then dead straight, but as my arms gotten stronger and the disc has beaten in it will flip up and drag left to right (rhbh) forever
