Streamline Disc Golf Electron Pilot Putter 2/5/0/1 - Choose Exact Disc
Description
The Streamline Electron Pilot putter is Streamline's versatile, neutral-flying putter, molded in Electron plastic. It's built for players who want a dead-straight putter they can trust, and it's at its best on dead-straight putts and approaches. If you're shopping for a dependable Pilot for your bag, this Electron run is a great place to start.
Electron Plastic
Electron is MVP's high-tech take on baseline plastic. Its tactile, matte blend gives superb grip that holds up in rain, cold, and morning dew, which is exactly what you want from a disc you'll throw all year in Michigan. It's designed to wear slowly, and as your Pilot picks up a few battle scars it gains a little glide and flies straighter. Compared to Neutron and Proton, Electron is grippier and more broken-in feeling, while those premium blends hold their out-of-the-box flight longer. The Pilot is also available in Cosmic Electron, Cosmic Electron Firm, Cosmic Electron Soft and Cosmic Neutron.
The Mold
The Pilot is a 21.2 cm solo-mold putt and approach disc with a 9 mm rim. It has a medium-depth grip, small-bead wing, flat top, and a comfortable rounded nose, and its dead-straight flight takes you right to the pin. MVP throwers will find its depth between the MVP Atom and MVP Anode, and its flight most similar to a seasoned Anode.
Stability
The Pilot is neutral. Neutral discs fly straight and true with very little turn or fade. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it flies straight with only a slight drift left as it slows down. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with a gentle drift right at the finish. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It's an easy choice for beginners and a reliable tool for experienced players.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 2 | Slow putter speed, easy to control without much power. |
| Glide | 5 | Lots of glide to help it stay in the air and add distance. |
| Turn | 0 | No high-speed turn, so it holds its line early in flight. |
| Fade | 1 | Very little fade, so it finishes nearly straight. |
