MVP Disc Golf Fission Tesla Distance Driver 9/5/-1.5/2 - Choose Exact Disc
Description
The MVP Fission Tesla distance driver is MVP's stable 9-speed distance driver, molded in Fission plastic. It's built for players who want long-range pinpoint accuracy, and it's at its best on controlled distance drives and headwind lines. If you're shopping for a dependable Tesla for your bag, this Fission run is a great place to start.
Fission Plastic
Fission is MVP's breakthrough lightweight plastic. Its Fission Microbubble Technology creates an ultralight Neutron core with evenly distributed, imperceptible microbubbles, which lets MVP put an even denser GYRO overmold on the rim. The result is a light throwing weight with a substantial feel and improved durability over other bubble plastics. Fission is opaque with a matte finish, and it's a great way to get extra distance from your Tesla without the floppy feel of typical lightweight discs. The Tesla is also available in Cosmic Neutron, Eclipse, Neutron and Plasma.
The Mold
The Tesla is a 21.1 cm distance driver with an 18.5 mm rim. The Tesla's responsive design balances a subtle turn with a reliable fade, while pronounced glide and a forward finish add extra distance. It extends high-power or headwind lines and has plenty of bite to fade back and reduce lateral drift. MVP calls the Tesla the big brother to the Volt.
Stability
The Tesla is stable. Stable discs fly straight for most of their flight and finish with a dependable fade. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it flies straight with a reliable fade to the left at the end. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with the fade finishing to the right. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. This Fission run is rated 9/5/-1.5/2, with a little more turn than the standard 9/5/-1/2 Tesla. It suits players of every skill level who want a predictable flight.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 9 | Distance-driver speed that needs good arm speed to fly as rated. |
| Glide | 5 | Lots of glide to help it stay in the air and add distance. |
| Turn | -1.5 | Noticeable turn to the right (RHBH) at speed, great for turnovers and hyzer-flips. |
| Fade | 2 | A moderate, dependable fade at the end of the flight. |

Discs That Pair Well With the Tesla
- MVP Fission Volt (8/5/-0.5/2): The Tesla's smaller brother for fairway accuracy.
- MVP Fission Inertia (9/5/-2/2): An understable 9-speed for hyzer-flips.
- MVP Neutron Motion (9/3.5/0/4): An overstable 9-speed for headwinds.
- MVP Fission Photon (11/5/-1/2.5): A longer, stable-overstable driver.
FAQ
Is the MVP Tesla good for beginners?
It can be. The Tesla's balanced flight is manageable for newer players, though an understable driver may be easier for your very first.
Is the MVP Tesla overstable?
Not really. The Tesla is stable, rated 9/5/-1.5/2, so it flies straight with a dependable fade rather than the hard hook of an overstable disc.
What's the difference between Fission and Neutron plastic?
Fission uses a microbubble Neutron core to make the disc lighter while increasing the GYRO effect. Standard Neutron is heavier and has the widest color selection.
What disc is similar to the MVP Tesla?
The MVP Fission Photon (11/5/-1/2.5) is described by MVP as a longer Tesla.
How far does the MVP Tesla fly?
With an average arm, expect roughly 345 feet. Distance depends heavily on your power and form, so stronger throwers will go farther and newer players shorter.
