I only throw rhbh and currently want to add a driver. Looking for any advice as to where there may be a void. Thanks. Currently my bag is:
Dx Eagle, Champ Teebird, Star Leopard, Star Valk, Star TL, Champ Thunderbird, S-line FD, Opto River, Z Avenger SS
Thanks
Edit: not loyal to any brand

Star Wraith
Can I second and third the star wraith with your bag setup?
Why not add an extra mid or putter? damn that's a lot of drivers
That’s definitely not off the table but my bag is already ‘large’. Here’s the rest of the bag.
Rhyno, (2) Wizard, R Roc, Kc Roc, Meteor, Super Stingray, Buzzz SS,
oh I'd def do a zone or suspect some overstable putter for off the tee, but that's just my opinion :)
Was looking into a Gateway Chief OS for this role
never thrown gateway, my morals and their lax approach to copyright is a huge turnoff.
Undertaker
Pro Wraith
Destroyer
Would probably help people make useful recommendations to know how far you throw some of these to at least have a general idea of what your arm speed is like.
On a good day I could probs rip a teebird 300’
I’d suggest a firebird, you can do some crazy flexes, spike hyzers, overhands, cut rollers, big skips, etc that you can’t do as well with the less stable fairway drivers.
evilcheesypoof has a good shout w/ a firebird, it'll be different than most everything else your bagging.
If you are intent on moving up in speed a flippier faster driver like a Mamba or Thrasher might do something new and fun for you. If that would be too similar to the Avenger SS an Orc or a lighter weight Wraith may be handy.
If you want something slower, a champ banshee will probably be beefier than anything you've currently got in that speed.
Since you are throwing around 300 try discs around speed 9 or 10. If your valkyrie is flying stable at your arm speed try an understable disc like a sidewinder. If your valkyrie is getting decent turn then maybe something like a viking or an orc would get similar distance with more fade. But if you want something for headwinds or flex shots Thunderbird or firebird are great options at that speed.
Axiom Crave in Neutron? Sounds like we throw about the same distance, and that disc feels real good out of my hand.
I have recently stepped up to a DD trespass and a Westside sword... the are speed 12 but feel like my speed 9 DD escape (my go to) with a slightly larger rim. Both are very similar in both numbers and flight. I am still making my mind up on which one I like better, but am seeing distance improvement (with good form). Also I started throwing a Westside hatchet for turnovers and have fallen in love with the anhyzer line that it will hold and the consistent fade back left.
I by no means have an arm past 320-350. Hope that opens up some thoughts.
Beast or maybe a utility driver like a firebread
I do appreciate all of the inputs here, thanks !
The Trace would be a good fit with those disc. 165-170 Pro Destroyer or Wraith. If you think you can throw a higher speed the Shryke and Corvette could work also.
Star Destroyer. Hands down.
Justice
Corvette is an amazing driver.
