Very impressive skills. I wish i had the space for a table tennis table at home as well :) What racket are you using if you don't mind me asking? Or rubbers
hello, thanks for sharring video,. can u please tell about the tablet quality this robot have and what is the quality of robot serve. and it is placed in center of table can it be put on left or right side. thanks
tablet quality is ok, not great but not terrible. I often use my phone instead of the tablet. Regarding serve quality, this is a challenge for all robots and I must say this robot does the best from those which I have sampled. It has limits, it cannot do a fast dead ball serve, but it can do many topspin variations and a bunch of short serve with heavy or light backspin/sidespin. You can adjust the height of the head to help with this. I find it best to use the highest ring for the head when working on backspin short serves.
My opinion is, any robot is great to help with certain aspects of the game. You can use it for exercise and warmup purposes, also to help reinforce something you struggle with, maybe heavy backspin to forehand, or transitions from BH to FH or there are countless use cases. However, do not mistake this machine as a substitute for a coach. If you hit 500 balls with incorrect technique in your swing or footwork, you will instill that poor technique when playing a human. With a coach, the poor technique will get addressed instantly. So the robot is just an extra tool you can use, and good as a supplement to proper training, but not a replacement to formal training.
@@axfrayberg it's like jogging exercise for pong players I believe a coach will teach fakes hand serve disguises that's about it imo the rest is pure talent of dexterity for each players abilities only a certain threshold for 99% 1% will be wonders of that areas players
yep, that is my biggest weapon. It has a natural powerful wrist and arm rotation, ever since I was a teenager. I think it has to do with bone structure. I am unable to generate such power and spin on Forehand, plus trying to do so results in using 10x more energy making me tired quickly. I need to build more stamina for that. Good observation, I get many compliments on my BH especially when it’s on fire.
I don’t know, never tried the power pong but I’d say that the Amicus Prime App is so flexible and easy to use. Ability to visually configure exercises and make adjustments is very intuitive in my opinion.
Hi there, great video. Can I just ask something. It looks like you don't load the machine with balls like other robots and do does it keep sucking the balls up from the net so it can keep going for a long time, providing you hit the balls onto the net. 😁
Yes, that is correct, there is a tray which collects the balls and reuses them. This is very common for higher end robots. The lower end robots often do not come with a net.
No, it connects just fine. I’ve used with the tablet, iphone, and ipad with much success. Lately I have been using the tablet after upgrading to latest firmware and rebooting the tablet, works great.
@@axfrayberg Glad to hear the amicus prime work well. I just bought one too...Can't wait to try it. According to Megaspin, the Power Pong app is actively being improved with new features at the time of writing this article and customer app reviews are very favorable. Butterfly recently released a bug fix update for their Android app, showing that the app is still being maintained. Both robots are built to perform for a long time, so having an active team behind the continued development of the training experience may be an important factor in the long run. Both apps can be downloaded from the respective app stores to be tested so we recommend trying the apps out for yourself and reading their app reviews to help you make your decision. The Power Pong app does a lot of the work for you by calculating the ball trajectory based on the table, speed and spin settings. The Amicus Prime allows for a maximum of ten different shots for each drill compared to the limit of eight for the Power Pong 5000. While it is uncommon for a player to use more than five or six distinct shots in a single drill, this difference may impact your buying decision. The Amicus Prime comes pre-programmed with 20 drills designed by German Butterfly coach Richard Prause. The integrated videos demonstrate proper execution of these drills. The Power Pong 5000 has 12 pre-programmed drills and both robots can store as many customized programs as your device can hold which are really cool...
@@axfrayberg The apps for these 2 robots are not interchangeable. The Amicus app does not work with PowerPong and PowerPong app does not work with Amicus. Those apps will not connect with the other brand, so no way to even transfer any commands, much less have those commands executed properly.
Hi WhiteKnightPoet, thanks for the feedback, I'd be happy to share the settings used in this video, in fact the app allows users to exchange the exercises via email with an export/import feature. It's easier for us to chat on other social media such as whatsapp, facebook/messenger, email, etc..I should be easy to find.
I could find no axfrayberg on facebook, and I could find no ax frayberg on facebook. I only found a alex frayberg on facebook but there was no identifying information about him. He did, however, have a picture of a ping pong table on his page but upon clicking on the picture, the person that popped up was named Tahl Alexander Leibovitz and he didn't look at all like you. So I gave up. And somehow, my original comment is now missing from where I posted it earlier.
Very good play! Are these default settings or can you post yours. Thanks
rich man lol, most expensive robot AND MyPingPongBuddy. I am jealous
Service ist not aloud! That's penalty!
Very impressive skills. I wish i had the space for a table tennis table at home as well :) What racket are you using if you don't mind me asking? Or rubbers
<3
That back hand mate! 🔥
Hello. I have a problem with my amicus expert: it will throw 2 balls at once every 5-6 throws. Can you give me a solution? Thank you
@@axfrayberg thanx a lot! The balls are new, i will try to clean everything and also reach Butterfly suport

why the music background? we want to hear the damn background noise of the robot
Thank you for the great video🏓👍🏼 How much has your game improved since buying the robot?

I get the price tag... like paying someone to do this for like a month to serve to you would cost more probably

Hi after few years is the amicus still working well- no technical/software issues?
Когда не с кем поиграть
yes, it’s a great practice partner when you can’t find a person to train with.
Very nice machine and the robot, too! :-) Congratulations. May I ask you what's the size of the room
your back hand top spin is good

I am very impressed with your tt skills. You probably are a champion of your area.
How different is this from power pong omega. They look identical. Same manufacture with different branding?

Hello.Did you have any issues setting up the robot?
Do you have issue with connectivity between the tablet and robot?
No, it connects just fine. I’ve used with the tablet, iphone, and ipad with much success. Lately I have been using the tablet after upgrading to latest firmware and rebooting the tablet, works great.

good practice, but services like these are not legal any more. must remove left hand after the toss
