Well according to the official MVP thread its specs match pretty closely with the starfire-L, and the PD so were it seems like were looking at a straight stable disc that has some dependable fade towards the end.
MVP mids are too fast for my power, so I expect the volt will be nicely OS for me

MVP sure knows how to make a beautiful disc.
Does anyone have information on when their previous discs were announced compared to when they were released? Maybe we can get a better guess to when this is going to be available to purchase.

I'd guess a couple weeks before you see them on here or online stores.

That's hard to say. The vector was announced directly to resellers as was the Axis which was barely even mentioned before orders opened. The Anode was announced 2-3 weeks before it hit stores so I'd say expect to see this thing by August. MVP mentioned to me that they need to verify cycle counts on the new machine (whatever that means) so this one could take a little longer if there's a new production line being used apart from the normal one.

fn a cotton!! stoked about this!
I was hoping for a slower disc like an eagle but this should be a good one to start with. Now that drivers are being made we can hope that we will get a few new molds a year.

Hopefully this is a new core then, cranking out more drivers will take less time if they use this core. Sweet!

Hopefully, but I'm sure it'll be tougher with drivers. Instead of it just being the core/bead, it's actually a majority of the wing also.

They talked only about bright fluorescent colors in the neutron, I'm hoping there is a plain white too.
As far as the driver, it seems another I won't use because they can't seem to get any of their discs light enough for me. No mids less than 175, and the Volt only to 168. Guess the overmold won't allow for Japan or even Japan Open class.
Maybe they adhere to Blake's opinion that if you can't throw it at 168, you shouldn't be throwing it.
All that said, I wouldn't play without my 166 soft Anode.

When MVP got the Axis approved (Aprox. July 15) it was about 2 months till they were released for sale. It was about 3 months between approval and release for the Vector, but only 2 weeks after the Anode was approved that it was released.
I hope it ends up being like the latter.

i'm super excited to get my hands on this disc, i'm just really curious how mvp's gyro tech will translate to a driver.

I'm just hoping I can order these when I need a MVP order here soon.
If their diagram is a true representation, and going by the pdga specs a little, I expect that it'll be a straight control driver with moderate to heavy fade, but one that won't be hss in strong winds. My guess is that it'll be a bit meathooky for most dg'ers who don't have good form and strong snap to realize the benefits of gyro weighting. But until it gets into people's hands, it's anyone's guess as to how it'll fly.

hmmm maybe longer vector?

This is going to be the biggest reason why(if) most people will dislike this disc at first. As with the Axis and Anode for driving, I'm sure there will be a big of a learning period at first with it.
Maybe a flat vector, the ones that fly like KC Rocs, and hopefully not like my few that fly like Drones.

How do you guys know what it will fly like?
