No chart shows how the entire flight path changes with differing distance, spin rate and nose angle plus off axis torque. I wouldn't read much into you flipping the Monarchs because others do too and they are notorious for misbehaving if not thrown flat and clean. If you were to to flip a beefy disc then OAT would be the likely explanation here i'm not sure at all. The Monarch is not at all usable yard stick for cleanliness of form.
To me the Vulcans are real flippers like fast Sidewinders and my max distance with the 159 Star hit a wall at IIRC 430' s-curved. Normally 400-410' is tricky because it flips so much but with a mild anny after the flip 410' is pretty much guaranteed minimum. Too bad the hit rate is low due to the flippyness.
When i've had different results flight wise the most common cause has been others throwing faster than i do and from flight description with less spin than me. Speed and spin dominant throws are different and gyroscopics of the disc in straight and understable discs is influenced a lot by spin. And i'm not tops in spinning the disc vs the speed. With golf form (not using distance tricks) my record is 92 KPH at 20 revs per second. Avery Jenkins has thrown way farther with a quarter higher radar result than my radar result with the same revs. So the forces acting on the discs are very different with more understable flight behavior supporting speed for Avery with the same force of the gyroscopics resisting turn. That is why i throw Beasts straight and the big boys flip them.
I'd like to know how far do you get your Vulcans and with what kind of flight path and apex height to compare where we differ. And don't dramatize i don't have that different results to most experienced throwers especially when we factor in different distances we throw to. Ginormous pfft.
Why do you bring up variables? You assert that a Vulcan is more understable than a Monarch. It just cannot be. Hell, even Innova compares the Monarch to a Roadrunner. Oh, and stop ignoring the speed. I have no idea what most of the above is even trying to say.
