Distance Drivers

    Distance drivers are designed for maximum distance — but only if you have the arm speed to match. More than any other disc type, distance driver flight paths depend on how fast you can throw. Most high-speed drivers require a launch speed of at least 50 mph to achieve their intended flight numbers and full glide potential.

    If you throw slower than that, these discs will tend to fade early or fly more overstable than the numbers suggest. Use our interactive flight charts to compare how each driver behaves at different power levels, and find the one that truly fits your throwing speed.

  • Photon

    MVP Photon Flight Chart The MVP Photon is a stable–overstable distance driver known for controllable speed and a trustworthy finish. Manufacturer flight numbers are 11 | 5 | -1 | 2.5. Think “longer Tesla”: a touch of high-speed turn when pushed, followed by reliable fade. Common plastics include Neutron, Proton, Plasma, Fission (plus Cosmic variants), letting you fine-tune the flight path for power, wind, and feel. Quick Overview & Flight Numbers Speed 11 rim with workable glide means the Photon stretches distance without sacrificing placement. Heavier Proton/Plasma tend to fly a hair more overstable; lighter Fission opens up easier turn and added carry while keeping a Photon-like finish. Straight Control…

  • Phase

    MVP Phase Flight Chart The MVP Phase is a very overstable 21.5 mm distance driver built for headwinds, spike hyzers, and torque-heavy forehands. Manufacturer flight numbers are 11 | 3.5 | 0 | 4, which translates to a fast, low-glide push and a hard, reliable finish. Most runs are in durable Neutron, giving a firm, confident feel for power releases. Who It Suits (Quick Overview) If you need a wind fighter or a disc you can hammer on without it turning, the Phase fills that slot. Think “point-and-dump” control at distance driver speed, ideal for advanced throwers and confident forehands. Flight Path for Developing Arms Newer players will see a…

  • Orbital

    MVP Orbital Flight Chart The MVP Orbital is an ultra-understable distance driver designed for effortless hyzer-flips, sweeping turnovers, and touch rollers. Listed flight numbers are 11 | 5 | -4.5 | 1, making it the flippiest mold in MVP’s 21.5 mm distance class. Most runs are in premium Neutron (with occasional glow runs), offering great grip and durability for touchy angle control. Flight Path for Newer Arms Expect easy straight-to-right flights (RHBH) from a light hyzer. If you’re working up to higher speeds, the Orbital helps you access “long glide” lines without forcing power—great confidence builder for shaping lines in calm conditions. Hyzer-Flip & Turnover Tool for Intermediates Release on…

  • Kahu

    RPM Kahu Flight Chart The RPM Kahu is a high-speed distance driver built for long, workable flights. Listed flight numbers are 13 | 5 | -1 | 2, pairing gentle high-speed turn with a reliable, forward fade. It’s a popular option for both backhand and forehand distance thanks to a comfortable 2.4 cm rim. Typical plastics include Atomic, Cosmic, Glow, Platinum, and baseline Strata; RPM also offers related variants like the Kāhu XG (more understable) and Kāhu OS (more overstable). Flight Path for Newer Arms If you’re developing arm speed, expect straight pushes with a dependable fade (RHBH). Start on slight hyzer to avoid early turn. Lighter weights and grippy…

  • Virus

    Axiom Virus Flight Chart The Axiom Virus is an understable control driver with flight numbers 9 | 5 | -3.5 | 1. In Neutron and Proton plastics, the Virus is built for easy hyzer-flips, long drifting turnovers, and effortless straight distance at lower power. It’s the understable end of Axiom’s 20 mm driver family—great for beginners learning clean form and for experienced throwers who want shapeable lines. Flight Path for Newer Players Expect a gentle flip to flat and a long turn with a soft finish (RHBH). Start on slight hyzer and keep the release smooth; lighter weights can help you access the intended flight path sooner. Hyzer-Flip Control for…

  • Ballista

    Latitude 64 Ballista Flight Chart The Latitude 64 Ballista is a very fast distance driver with flight numbers 14 | 5 | -1 | 3. It’s built for big carries: a touch of high-speed turn that flips to flat and rides on ample glide before a confident finish. In Opto, Gold, and lightweight Opto Air runs, the Ballista rewards arm speed while staying predictable for developing power throwers. Flight Path for Newer Arms If your max throw is still building, expect a straight-to-hyzer flight with limited turn (RHBH). Use slight anhyzer to stretch distance. Opto Air can help you access the intended flight path at lower power. Launch Window for…

  • Ogopogo

    Daredevil Ogopogo Flight Chart The Daredevil Ogopogo lists flight numbers of 9 | 4 | -2 | 5. Built as a wind-ready driver with a heavy, predictable finish, the Ogopogo is most often molded in Daredevil’s ultra-soft Elastic Performance (EP) plastic, which helps it land “drop & stop” with minimal skips or rollaways. It’s a control-first driver that suits intermediate and advanced players who need spike hyzers, steep approaches, and utility lines to sit where they land. What Newer Players Will See At low power, expect brief high-speed turn followed by a strong fade (RHBH). It’s a confidence piece for headwinds and hyzer training, but distance will be limited compared…
