I'm new to CFD. I modeled a frisbee in SolidWorks and used Flow Simulation. I was wondering what your thoughts were on the better frisbee (see images attached). I know the ideal situation is to have a high ratio of Lift to Drag forces. It seems that FRISBEE B accomplishes that, but I'm wondering if it is likely to be more unstable during flight.

Any input is greatly appreciated.
