Physics of Frisbees

Frisbee Flight: Part 2

Another component of disc flight is the spin.
If you've ever tried to throw a disc in the wind, you know that the disc usually wobbles, and falls to the ground.
A spinning frisbee acts like a gyroscope, providing greater stability for the disc in the air.
This is the same reason that it's hard to sit on a bicycle without moving, but once you start pedaling, it gets easier to stay balanced.
