Do you prefer them to traditional frisbee clays? And are the rotors easy to source?

Clays already seem to be getting more expensive as it is I wouldn’t want to be locked into this. It’s cool though

You can 3d print the Claycopter clays for 10-12 cents in pla btw, same as the thrower itself

I just don’t think they would break the same ?

Then again I don’t think clay would really be able to fly like those do either so it wouldn’t surprise me

Caldwell has info on their website that they're biodegradable from plant-based polymers. I don't know what that's going to look like in real life, but they claim it breaks down and disappears into the environment better and with less impact than traditional clays.
