[MVP] MVP's Rad Flight Ratings/System

I bet it involves math.

Their flight ratings system will make you solve for x to understand their rating. Each disc has a different problem on it.

That's what disc golfers need... More math!
 
Probably a linear regression based on your personally-derived constants for distance, glide, hss, and lss when you throw t-birds, fresh rocs, and buzzzes.
 
I'd like them to just publish the first order correction to the moment of inertia in the x axis, of of a thin, solid disk of mass M and radius R. Base is:

I = MR^2/4.

That would help me decide which disc will go in the basket right?

It would make sense to have one of the numbers be based off of the discs mass moment of inertia.

Another based off the discs drag coefficient.
 
MVP Axis Ratings released!

From the website:

Axis Flight Ratings:
Speed = Z Buzz Like
Glide = Little better than a Z Buzz
HSS = Like a Z Buzz if you snap it right
LSS = Less Fade than a Z Buzz but more than a Z Buzz SS


Perfect!
 
YESSSS

this will be the new MVP ratings system

"How does it compare to a Teebird?"
"How does it compare to a Roc?"
"How does it compare to a Buzzz?"
"How does it compare to a Leopard?"
"How does it compare to a Zone?"
"How does it compare to a Firebird?"
"How does it compare to a Force?"
"How does it compare to a Destroyer?"
"How does it compare to a Comet?"

each disc will have a number rating in all of the above fields.
Got it assign distance numbers.
Destroyer 6
Firebird 5
Teebird 4
Leopard 3
Roc 2. But this will have 37 letter choices for the several variations of the disc.
Aviar 1

Then second number +1 for a disc that's a little more over stable then "control" disc -1 for a disc that's more under stable. +2 way over stable to control. -2 for very under stable.

Then you add a set of letters. SG super glide NG normal glide or BR for brick

Then you add a second set of letters for fade. HH=hard hook NH- average hook. And Lh for little hook.
I know this system will work cause we all know disc golf understand both numbers and the letters found on a disc. :doh: pretty sure there is not 400 threads deciphering them on here :doh:

For example. Stag new number would be 4.5 +1 sg NH.

Ok I think I spent way too much on this sarcastic response and I now apologize
