I’m not really up on my particle physics so I couldn’t argue with you. ---

Are you planning to commercialize this machine? Do you have a system for gathering up all the birds? ---

> [@roon4660](#): > > Are you planning to commercialize this machine? No. It’s just a personal project. And there are many more things to do. Speed control for throwing DC motors. Shuttlecock feeding system, moving vertically (upm down), horizontally (lefty right). Soft rewrite. Mechanism redesign (now that I have a 3d printer). ---

Why would you want to throw dc motors? ---

@Leo, that is a very impressive machine. You have some skills my friend! Changing the angle and everything: wow! You must really love badminton. ? ---

Changing the angle, like in the movie, is deprecated. I remove. As i increased the angle, the throwing force decreased. ---

Interesting project. How accurate can this machine be? ---

> [@Leo](#): > > Changing the angle, like in the movie, is deprecated. I remove. As i increased the angle, the throwing force decreased. Instead of changing the angle of the impeller wheels, how about changing the angle of the whole machine, like with a lifter under the bottom rail? ---

I am basically just wondering about the controls. Look how accurate our 3d printers must be in so many ways it boggles my antique brain. ---

> [@Vassili\_Finellis](#): > > Something that throws the Badminton ball i persume? Yeah, in a earlier post @Leo showed a short video of it in action. > I am basically just wondering about the controls. Look how accurate our 3d printers must be in so many ways it boggles my antique brain. Since it’s designed to provide training and exercise to badminton players, you really don’t even want accuracy. As long as it isn’t too crazy, you want it to spit badminton shuttlecocks kind of all over the place, to force the player to work hard to hit them with their racket. ---

Accuracy means that it can spread ten shutlecocks over an area of 50 square cm. Throw from the same position. ---

> [@roon4660](#): > > Im not quite sure what I am looking at. I redesigned the wheels, now they have a rubber band. And the engine mounting system. Now it is much easier to adjust them horizontally and vertically. Everything will be redesigned.
