If all slipping has stopped by the time the projectile exits, the projectile speed should be 1/2 of the shooter wheel surface speed. However, that is not what is calculated by https://www.reca.lc/flywheel. The calculations document that is cited on the page seems to assume no slippage, so it isn't clear where the formula that is being used is coming from. From the code, it looks like it might be coming from @juliaschatz's spreadsheet, but that spreadsheet references the same calculation document. Either the formula used or the citation should be updated to make it clear why the formula is correct.

Most teams and mechanical design calculators deal with the diameter of the shooter wheel when doing accepting numbers for calculations rather than the radius. ReCalc using radius can cause confusion for students because they are used to seeing / talking about diameter, not radius.

Not all teams use flywheels for their shooters, there should be an option to disable the flywheel parameters instead of just supplying zeros as people may get confused doing that.
