It sound exactly what I am looking for - a longer mid with glide and a slightly understable path. I'm considering a Warship / Pain combo. That's assuming a TP Warship (not max weight) would fly understable lines. Does this work?

In TP it should work as long as you don't try any shorter lines.

The Warship and Flying Squirrel have pretty similar profiles I noticed, would probably work as a nice stable/understable combo of mids for lower power throwers.
Some discs of various sizes, weight, plastic and mold.

Anyone still throwing these? I feel its a slightly more stable new comet. In my tournament bag I carry a beat comet, warship, perfect roc and pain. Midrange duties are well taken care of

I can't distinguish warship from a z-comet stability wise, warship is maybe a smidgen faster. Good disc, but as I have a few Z-comets stocked I can't see a reason to start using them.

I get the Warship to flip but not the Comet. If both are thrown cleanly.
Flat shots need running on the center line of the tee and planting each step on the center line. Anhyzer needs running from rear right to front left with the plant step hitting the ground to the left of the line you're running on. Hyzer is the mirror of that.

My dark blue and purple 177g and 175g are noticeably more stable than 173g pinks that I have. Those in VIP plastic. The only TP I have is about the same as the pinks. I can usually get them to 300 feet or so.
Those pinks turn some for me but I also have less than perfect release.

My Warship record is 97 or so meters. Normally it is 91-94 m. I have i think 176-177 range purple TP and blue VIP and the VIP turns sometimes a hair less and mostly the same but fades more. Even the VIP turns always just how much varies a bit. I would not wonder if the distance difference matters at that HSS because the turns isn't too heavy for me at full power.

Aye, high shoulder dome comets are one of the most HSS mids I've thrown, IF thrown cleanly. Warship on the other hand turns from stable to understable very suddenly when given enough power, or that's what I experienced with a proto and couple FR ones I've tried.
Both of my midnight z-comets I recently acquired are lowish shoulder dome ones and they're on the understable side.

How far do you get the Warships? IIRC for me they didn't turn at all if i powered down to around 250'. Comets are super fussy about clean releases. If you don't have it they'll turn no matter what the other circumstances are.

Ive never thrown it for distance. Ive got a clean release but I usually carry 1 beat comet and 1 new comet or I swap out the new comet for the warship.
But i think Ive recently experienced the same "suddenly understable" at high speeds. When Ive tried to throw it on 300 foot holes it does turn more right than I originally expected.

Yeah, it's like flipping a switch after hitting certain speed.
