But they feel nothing a like and in disc golf millimeters make a difference. Especially when referring to rim width and PLH.

I simply put the inertia behind the proton volt and the inertia is ever so slightly wider. Feel or no feel it's extra D.
Yesterday I used it for a few holes on a temp course I tried it once into a slight headwind with a hyzer release and it just turned pretty hard. With a tailwind though this thing helped me bag two nice birdies, it is the best tail wind driver I've thrown, the gyro gets Mother Nature assistance, two forces of nature are better than one.
This disc for me perhaps because of my green arm needs to be learned as the season goes on. If the difference between the volts and the inertia distance wise is this big, it will be scary to see the 22 and 23mm speed 12 and 13 DDs. The big arms will have fun....

So it sounds like you're getting more than the extra four feet that inbounds shows?

Uh, yeah, like 20-30 ft consistently, when I get the line right..

Well, I definitely can't throw the Volt ~400, but I can throw the Inertia that far. Though, even with a big hyzer flip, mine are more understable than what inbounds shows.

My apologies to all. I was using a scientific method and the Inertia and Volt are within .5MM.
Volt FTW
if the difference is that small, I might skip my most desired disc of the year, the Tesla, and just get more Volts haha

thats the harsh reality ive been coming to terms with.
i wish mvp started with 'speed 12' drivers instead.

Indeed, regardless of wing size the Inertia is pretty dang long. It's actually surprisingly long for it's wing size. I suggest throwing one (or any of the others in this class when they come out) rather than making assumptions based on measurements. You may be surprised by how long they are - I know I was. Maybe it's the unicorn horn dust they're sprinkling in the OM these days who knows but regardless of rim size this disc can bomb. Again - not tern or bolt long but closer than you might think.

I threw my new Inertia yesterday in pretty calm conditions. it seems to me like a longer Switch. Nice s-curves. holds an anny line too. i can't wait for the more stable DD's from MVP.

I just made an observation about a physical characteristic of the disc. Sorry.

They did say upon announcement of this series that the four were all 20mm rims
Between the fact that "speeds" are typically divisions of 1mm, the rounded lower wing edge on MVP, and the WD-40'd ease with which threads like this are aggravated... NOT SURPRISED to see the fur flying over fractions of mm's.
By Chad's CAD the classes are 17mm for Servo class, 18.5 for Volt class, and 20 for this new distance class. Calip' it how you will, the pudding's proving itself significantly longer in the air.
As for a teaser on performance of the next model, from Brad: "Chad won't shut up about it." See? Their HQ is almost like our threads! Haha

I'm getting TONS more distance from the Inertia compared to an Amp. Same sort of deviation from a Switch to an AMP as well. These are very well thought out designs and production runs.
Chad needs to spill the beans already on the next release ;-)

If its not the Tesla it better be a super OS approach disc.

Well F**k!, I just threw my Inertia into some deep water - it's gone. Anybody know where I can get a hot pink 155? I've tried all my regular vendors but no luck. I know I'm being picky about weight and color but I was just so happy with the way mine flew I just want to get one as close as possible. Also, I find hot pink the easiest color to find so I figure that's what I want for my primary driver. Please let me know if you know where to find one. Thanks.
