The Pluto Driver was part of Pacific Cycle's planet-themed beginner set, bundled with entry-level basket sets under the bicycle company's InStep and Halex brands (2006, 06-08). It predates four-number ratings, and none surfaced in the sources traced for this page. PDGA lists near-identical headline dimensions for the Pluto Driver and the set's Saturn Mid Range, though their rim configurations differ, so the records establish two registrations rather than one mold.

Source: Pacific Cycle
SpeedHow hard the disc must be thrown to fly as designed. Putters are 1 to 3, the fastest drivers 14 and up.
-
GlideHow long the disc stays in the air. More glide means more distance from the same throw.
-
TurnHow much it drifts right early in flight (right-handed backhand). More negative, more drift.
-
FadeHow hard it hooks left as it slows down (right-handed backhand). Higher, stronger hook.

Source: PDGA
DiameterHow wide the disc is, edge to edge. Almost every disc is 21 to 22 cm.

HeightHow tall the disc is lying flat. Putters are usually the tallest.
1.7 cm
Rim DepthHow deep the rim is underneath, where your fingers grip. Putters have the deepest rims.
1.1 cm
Rim ThicknessHow wide the rim is. Wider rims make faster discs that need a stronger throw.
1.4 cm
Rim Inside DiameterThe width of the flat middle, inside the rim. Bigger usually means a slower, easier disc.
18.2 cm
Rim Depth/Diameter RatioRim depth as a share of the disc's width. Higher means a deeper rim for its size.
5.2%
Rim ConfigurationA PDGA score for the shape of the edge. Low is sharp, like a driver. High is rounded, like a putter.
