Robot Practice

Good morning, Alois and Jeff, as I have limited opportunities to practice with someone who can return the balls as consistently or feed multi ball like you, I rely on my robot. Please let me know the type of ball you are sending to Jeff for the following: FH Counter hit: looks to me like a moderate topspin, FH topspin against block: does the block have just a bit of topspin? I should be able to work out the frequency from your videos. I can also vary the placement/flight by using the scatter function. I may also program 3-4 balls in the fh court and set at random. I'll start at 40 bpm, and then gradually to 60 bpm. I find that if the frequency setting is too high the stroke shortens too much. Thanking you for your assistance, as always.
