Cover
the bottom with something non-rotating.
I
built a small centrifuge a while back for casting small plastic parts with thick
resin, 1728rpm motor, disk 12" or so in diameter. The flat disk (no skirt) was
fully exposed above but was recessed into a box with the motor underneath so the
bottom was exposed to the inside of the closed box. Lost about a pound of weight
when run, which seemed like a lot for such a small gizmo.
I
wonder how a freely rotating air-blocking disk mounted on an axle on the
underside of a frisbee would affect performance. Maybe try it on one with
no skirt - the 1-element flying Tesla turbine. Give it a little counterspin
before throwing.

Too bad I didn't think of it. :-)OTOH if you spin just a disk without a skirt (inverted stock tanks havea skirt) it will be symmetrical and cancel.Got a pie tin, mini motor and a digital scale?A long time ago before Frisbees, we used to toss the metal caps off asphalt roofingrolls impressive distances. But our dog knew better than catching them.Fred
