Can I install this on my own disc?

Modified on Mon, 7 Apr at 3:36 PM

No. We permanently install the TechDisc sensor on a disc and calibrate the entire disc before shipping to ensure the data is valid. The installation process is critical to ensuring your TechDisc provides good data so we are careful to control that process.


The specific TechDisc mold used has minimal impact on data. However a large difference in rim width, weight and grip can have an impact. 


A wider rim requires more power to achieve a given speed and spin. Typically this is only noticeable between the wide rim of a distance driver and the narrow rim of a putter.  Changing from a distance driver to a fairway driver is typically too small of a change show up in the data. 


A lighter weight disc can result in faster speeds. A difference of 5 grams is not typically noticeable. While all TechDiscs are currently max weight, we plan to introduce lighter weight options in the future. 


Grip can meaningful affect the data. Comparing a power grip, fan grip, and bonapane grip often results in very different nose angles, and sometimes different spin, speed and wobble. You can try multiple grips with a single TechDisc to see how large the effect is for yourself. 


The TechDisc functions primarily as a capture device for release parameters. The data and simulated flight are determined by the pre-set disc you select within the software. Because TechDiscs are designed for throws into a net, the simulator handles the flight calculation, allowing you to model different disc flights with the same release.
