The Prodigy MX-1 is a speed 5 midrange with glide 3, turn 0 and fade +4, for an estimated maximum distance of 71 m / 233 ft. With fade outweighing turn by 4 points, it is a very overstable midrange: it holds a straight-to-left line even when thrown with power, resisting the wind rather than turning over. The flight path above is traced directly from Prodigy's official chart, so it reflects the disc's real charted flight rather than a calculated estimate.

How the MX-1 flies

At speed 5, this is a midrange in the midrange range. It asks for only moderate arm speed and stays controllable for the majority of players. Its glide of 3 gives it steady, controllable float. A turn of 0 means it resists turning right even at full power, and a fade of +4 gives it a strong, reliable hook back to the left at the end.

Who it's for & how it handles

Stability: Very overstable (rating +4). It holds its line in a headwind and resists turning over, making it a dependable wind fighter.

Backhand & forehand: The extra fade resists the turning force a forehand imparts, so it doubles as a reliable sidearm disc; on a backhand it finishes dependably to the left for a right-handed thrower.

Skill level: It is best suited to players who can bring it up to its rated speed; a slower arm will see it finish left early.
