As an archer myself, I will tell you that you will get more accuracy out of that compound bow with a drop away rest than the force inducing whisker biscuit. Try that first. In addition, even with a compound bow you cannot get away from the archer's paradox. Spine to tip weight to bow draw weight absolutely matters. Hit me up if you want to discuss - software engineer who has a complete obsession with archery. Love the vids.
i am not sure if i understood this but you are probably right ;) btw i never thought that a software engineer can have a different hobby other than coding xD
As an internationally competing archer, I am triggered on so many levels. But as a tech nerd, I am so impressed by your ingenuity and your problemsolving skills!
I love this channel specifically because its not a "show off" channel, it's like, look at the dispair and huge amount of bugs and fuck ups it took to get the final product.
Engineering is about the mindset, not just the things you learn is school. If you have the mindset and drive, you can learn the math and stuff. But if you don’t have the mindset it’s a struggle. Well, it’s a struggle either way but you get something out of it.
I was wondering myself why the aim and timing was off the rails then you said you were using a recurve 😅 The compound worked because it’s meant to be accurate and consistent. The archer’s paradox is basically non-existant compared to a recurve bow , it’s constantly drawing the same force, same speed . Compound bows are marvelous pieces of tech .
The thing that not many people think about is how much effort he puts into his videos, engineering channels have it hard on RUclips compared to react channels and gaming channels. Congrats on making it this far
The thing is everything he makes also goes on his CV. He is a RUclipsr but he is an Engineer first. He can get a gig anywhere if he gets to build something awesome.

You need to use Feather arrows if you use the arrow rest on the recurve. If you want to use the vinyl feather you need to install a rest for those arrows. That's what causes the arrows to go up and to the left. Learned that in my College archery class. Lots of fun. Great Vid BTW.
This is pretty much the most incredible thing i have seen on youtube from a single person. Just the amount of different expertises involved to complete this project is insane. Like engineering, programming, machining, all the tools and machines... just incredible!
Anti-aircraft artillery (guessing you're American because we're the only ones that call it that lol) is impressive, sure, but have you heard of "hit-to-kill" interception? A couple excerpts from the Patriot missile wiki page: "The PAC-3 radar is capable, among other things, of discriminating whether or not an aircraft is manned and which of multiple reentering ballistic objects are carrying ordnance." "The active radar also gives the warhead a "hit-to-kill" (kinetic kill vehicle) capability that completely eliminates the need for a traditional proximity-fused warhead."
@@nova5303 Speaking of the Patriot... in early versions, there was a clock issue if the system wasn't periodically restarted. When Iraq launched a SCUD in the instance of one system that had been on for 100 hours, 28 soldiers were killed because the system ended up having enough of a timestamp mismatch that the system looked in the wrong part of the sky and failed to launch a missile due to not finding a target.
I noticed that you were using a "whisker biscuit" on your compound bow, that's not really all that bad but it has flaws. If you change that out to a "drop down arrow rest" you'll be able to avoid variables in the arrow trajectory. Whisker biscuit can cause arrows to move as they leave the strut line causing a shift in the arrows flight. A Drop down arrow rest drops away the second the arrow releases giving it just clean air to move through, leading to better flight paths and overall accuracy, especially for longer distances.
Drop down arrow rests are inconsistent however because the arrow doesn't start out on the same place, where as with a forktongue arrow rest it forces the arrow to start in the same spot.
@@flamethrowr_ That's actually a really cool piece of information, I am going to have to ask about that next time I go to my Archery Shop. I was told by the Paralympic Archer who taught me, to swap my whisker biscuit for the drop down. From personal experience, I haven't had issues with the drop down, but I am going to ask him about the fork tongue arrow rest. I know each archer has his own preferences and styles. I learned something new tonight, thank you man.
@@froza_legend In competitive compound archery, the blade rest was always a go to since it had zero moving parts. You can't go wrong with this, as you aim for the least amount of contact with the arrow. They were popular over drop downs due to the poor engineering on drop down rests of the past. However, that is not the case any more, and the new drop down rests are much more consistent. There are now multiple pros shooting them, to the point where you can argue that the performance comes down to preference. Do you have the stability to shoot a blade rest, or do you prefer a drop down at the cost of lots of tuning and tinkering.
in this case i think a drop down would be better because the way the bow moves a fork tongue would have too much horizontal movement because of the arrow weight.
Now we just need a collab with Joerg Sprave down at the Slingshot Channel, and we'll have the full-auto, rubber-powered machine gun crossbow turret with auto aim that we've always wanted.
I didn't know I always wanted a full-auto, rubber-powered machine gun crossbow turret with auto aim until I read your comment. And now I have always wanted it.
This whole channel in a nutshell: “I’m bad at anything skill based , but I’m good at engineering, which actually means I’m actually really good at anything skill based.”
That describes humanity as a whole, we’re actually quite s**t at hunting on our own, but give us a spear and suddenly we’ve spread across the entire available landmass.
this guy is the coolest guy i know, im so inspirated by you, all my best wishes for u and i really hope one day i have a channel like this and do such cool projects, much love from Tenerife Canary Islands, never stop doing this stuff as long as you enjoy it
as a nationally ranked competitive archer and engineer I can tell that you did a ton of research or already had knowledge on archery and it really made this video even better. it will be interesting to see if you can end up creating an improved system that could actually be competitive with target archers, possibly even at standard competition distances (18m and 50m). I know I cant provide much insight from the engineering side but if you need anything from the archery side or have any questions about the equipment I would love to be able to help if possible.
I would love to see a list of random info at the end of the video. For instance hours to program, hours to construct, lines of code, number of fails, list of components, cost of project etc. Just to get an idea of how much time, effort and resources really go into projects like this.
@11:16 "I didn't actually do anything, but it feels like I won." I spent the whole video wondering why you even had to hold the bow. You could just mount the whole system on a stand. I'm convinced the only reason you didn't is because the video would end with your robot shooting you through the kidney.
I'm also impressed by how many skills your wife has. You have built so many things specifically because your wife is good at something you didn't learn, which is fascinating and really entertaining.
As an archer and engineer, I can tell you - this is one of the coolest things I gave seen. I was thinking about how to make something like auto-adjusting scope for my compound, but you went this road to the end.
The aim-bot would not fire? Just at the peoples with bullseyes on their t-shirts? :) :) :) Or probably everything in its database that it recognizes as a target. That could be humans as it might contain a bug that recognizes human heads (especially starving vegans :) ) as a zombie skull :).
From an archer and an engineer, this is awesome! Some things that might help your fine tuning, especially if you're doing a model based control are your tiller, nock point, release/follow through, and equipment. Tiller is the difference in position between your top limbs and bottom limbs and can move your arrow up or down. Your nock point should also be a little higher than your arrow rest (i think no more than 3/8”). Your release is probably fine but there are bad releases which can throw your shots a bit right or left. Your front arm moving after you release can also affect your shots a good amount depending on how much your control compensates for it. For the precision you're looking for, also make sure your arrows are tuned to your setup (spine stiffness and arrow weight to bow weight and draw length) so that they fly straighter. Arrow manufacturers like Easton will have a chart. Make sure the arrows are good arrows too. Cheap ones only have about 0.006" straightness tolerance whereas nice arrows have 0.0015" or better and definitely make a difference. Can't wait to see part 2! (Edit) I forgot to mention, if you do improve it significantly, definitely look into pin nocks. It's not too hard to Robin hood an arrow and it's a lot easier to replace a pin and a nock than the whole shaft
I would agree that the arrows need to be matched with the setup, really big deal. I would also add that a drop away rest might be an idea to look into, they definitely shoot better. I'm not sure with the quick motion though if it would be better than the whisker biscuit. I built a basement range as well and will say that a horse stall mat from tractor supply, hung from the ceiling does a great job as a backstop, sometimes a little hard to pull out but haven't had to deal with busted tips or broken arrows.
I just love the fact it took at least several hours of finding clothes, fake moustache, and coming up with the bit, and he left it in for less than a second. Wonderful stuff.
This is incredible! The only limitation is imagery navigation outside of your room but that can be fixed with some UAVs! Congrats on becoming a real life Hawkeye!
He could probably adapt it to be stand alone with a few encoders for bow location and a stereo or quad camera for target tracking. I imagine his biggest reason and a very good one at that for going with the camera marker tracking system is that he has used it extensively before so he won't have to learn a bunch of new stuff and it's cheaper to use stuff you already have.
Slingshot Channel army here, Joerg is another inventor & archery youtuber who has come up with some ideas for how to make this more practical, and wants to work with you on it!
I don't know if this is a sentiment with all your viewers, but I would love to see more in-depth videos of the engineering process, and design revision. You could even post to a secondary channel
Incredible. Your intelligence and innovation is top notch. It's crazy to see how smart some people are. People like you are the reason our society is as advanced as it is today. Your passion for engineering is inspiring. Your content is gold!
Absolutely love how the “ad” in this video was literally something to help us that didn’t require me to purchase something. As a college student I definitely enjoy hearing about other peoples experiences at company’s and the opportunities that they offer!
Just add a couple of high resolution cameras, paired with accelerometers, gyroscopes, an image recognition program, and a VR eyepiece (so you know what it is aiming at). Such a weapon would be extremely difficult to program but once the bugs are worked out it would be the ultimate medium range daytime weapon.
@@Tisrok I'm sure the military have many advanced weapon projects on the go as we speak. I think they put the Rail Gun project on hold for the moment and im sure theres something else that's taken its place.
i love how you show all the mistakes and difficulties you encounter. it's a good reminder that anybody, no matter how smart or skilled, only makes complicated things through a lot of trial and error and troubleshooting.
Well, he probably doesn't even share a fraction of his mistakes and difficulties, because on projects with that level of complexity, that would just take forever.
In the first few minutes when you were aiming up and left, I'm like oh, archers paradox. 10 minutes later finally a split second post about archer paradox.
When you are so educational that sponsors would rather promote job advertisements to your viewers than trying to sell products..... I've never seen that before, and I am impressed.
I see job ads every other day on RUclips since about a year. For some reason job ads started to be a thing with the pandemic. (might be different for you, since the ads im talking about are exclusive to my country) Anyway, I get game ads on this video

I’m not sure if I missed something before, but congratulations on the greatest ‘stuff made here’, aka your baby on the way! That’s more exciting than anything else you’ve ever made. Hopefully your wife will be impressed for once!
Styropyro, DemoRanch, and Lockpickinglawyer are up there, too. I'd, honestly, be terrified of what Styropyro would do with StuffMadeHere's budget. He'd probably make a Death Star.
Joerg Spräve says hello! Everyone on his channel is looking forward to you accepting his challenge/offer! It would be a great improvement/different approach to your aim bot!
I hope stuff made here is going for it, and I hope maybe even the 2 can meet (depending on each countries current regulations regarding the pandemic, if not possible a long distance colab would be great)

Also how humans dominated nature.
That describes humanity as a whole, we’re actually quite s**t at hunting on our own, but give us a spear and suddenly we’ve spread across the entire available landmass.
You act like you came up with that
....like Tony Stark, except he was a great alcoholic.
this guy is the coolest guy i know, im so inspirated by you, all my best wishes for u and i really hope one day i have a channel like this and do such cool projects, much love from Tenerife Canary Islands, never stop doing this stuff as long as you enjoy it
as a nationally ranked competitive archer and engineer I can tell that you did a ton of research or already had knowledge on archery and it really made this video even better. it will be interesting to see if you can end up creating an improved system that could actually be competitive with target archers, possibly even at standard competition distances (18m and 50m). I know I cant provide much insight from the engineering side but if you need anything from the archery side or have any questions about the equipment I would love to be able to help if possible.
well he is sleeping with an archer to get all the data, research and knowledge.

I would love to see a list of random info at the end of the video. For instance hours to program, hours to construct, lines of code, number of fails, list of components, cost of project etc. Just to get an idea of how much time, effort and resources really go into projects like this.
Me too
Same here
@11:16 "I didn't actually do anything, but it feels like I won." I spent the whole video wondering why you even had to hold the bow. You could just mount the whole system on a stand. I'm convinced the only reason you didn't is because the video would end with your robot shooting you through the kidney.
to pull it back, only feasible reason
I'm also impressed by how many skills your wife has. You have built so many things specifically because your wife is good at something you didn't learn, which is fascinating and really entertaining.
If I think about it, I need a girlfriend very fast, so I can build stuff she can do good
Clearly, as long as you know engineering you can be as much of an idiot as you want and still be good at everything else

As an archer and engineer, I can tell you - this is one of the coolest things I gave seen.
I was thinking about how to make something like auto-adjusting scope for my compound, but you went this road to the end.
Rare to see engineers that are archers, interesting
Finally, a solution to an archer’s natural instinct to fire arrows straight into the audience.
I love that video by the Onion
The aim-bot would not fire? Just at the peoples with bullseyes on their t-shirts? :) :) :) Or probably everything in its database that it recognizes as a target. That could be humans as it might contain a bug that recognizes human heads (especially starving vegans :) ) as a zombie skull :).
We need to talk about Kevin?
Whoaaaa tjhat's so weird, I just watched that video yesterday...
God I love the frequency illusion.
Won’t fix mine lol
Bro... The patience you have to give us these amazing videos. Thank you.
"It kinda feels like cheating but we're way pass that point!" - 🤣That sums up the channel perfectly in one sentence!🤣
I know right! Waaaayy past that
😂😂 should be call cheating your way through life
Yeah, that could be basically the channel's slogan.
From an archer and an engineer, this is awesome!
Some things that might help your fine tuning, especially if you're doing a model based control are your tiller, nock point, release/follow through, and equipment. Tiller is the difference in position between your top limbs and bottom limbs and can move your arrow up or down. Your nock point should also be a little higher than your arrow rest (i think no more than 3/8”). Your release is probably fine but there are bad releases which can throw your shots a bit right or left. Your front arm moving after you release can also affect your shots a good amount depending on how much your control compensates for it.
For the precision you're looking for, also make sure your arrows are tuned to your setup (spine stiffness and arrow weight to bow weight and draw length) so that they fly straighter. Arrow manufacturers like Easton will have a chart. Make sure the arrows are good arrows too. Cheap ones only have about 0.006" straightness tolerance whereas nice arrows have 0.0015" or better and definitely make a difference.
Can't wait to see part 2!
(Edit) I forgot to mention, if you do improve it significantly, definitely look into pin nocks. It's not too hard to Robin hood an arrow and it's a lot easier to replace a pin and a nock than the whole shaft
I would agree that the arrows need to be matched with the setup, really big deal. I would also add that a drop away rest might be an idea to look into, they definitely shoot better. I'm not sure with the quick motion though if it would be better than the whisker biscuit.
I built a basement range as well and will say that a horse stall mat from tractor supply, hung from the ceiling does a great job as a backstop, sometimes a little hard to pull out but haven't had to deal with busted tips or broken arrows.
My suggestion is he buys/makes a Fenris. All the awkward holds on the string will be eliminated and provide a consistent draw length.
I almost died when he turned the camera on himself and had a mustache and mullet. Perfect execution.
This sort of forethought and commitment to the joke is almost on Mark Roberg level. It's hilarious stuff and I'm totally on board for it
I just love the fact it took at least several hours of finding clothes, fake moustache, and coming up with the bit, and he left it in for less than a second.
Wonderful stuff.
Yep me too!
*wow and flutter on the VCR tape intensifies*
This is incredible! The only limitation is imagery navigation outside of your room but that can be fixed with some UAVs! Congrats on becoming a real life Hawkeye!
He could probably adapt it to be stand alone with a few encoders for bow location and a stereo or quad camera for target tracking.
I imagine his biggest reason and a very good one at that for going with the camera marker tracking system is that he has used it extensively before so he won't have to learn a bunch of new stuff and it's cheaper to use stuff you already have.
At this point he could make power armor and I wouldn’t be surprised.
Hi
I think it would be considered plot armour at that point
dont give him the idea you will emd the world
@@niceguykai8612 nah infinite armour from that one minecraft mod

Slingshot Channel army here, Joerg is another inventor & archery youtuber who has come up with some ideas for how to make this more practical, and wants to work with you on it!
I don't know if this is a sentiment with all your viewers, but I would love to see more in-depth videos of the engineering process, and design revision. You could even post to a secondary channel
That would be a great idea indeed
Was just about to post the same. The process behind and all the parts is really intersting. Would love to see more of that
Totally agree! Would love to see the whole building process and how he solves unexpected problems.
There is a second channel, looks like he forgot to link it. It's stuffmadehere2.
@@cuthbertallgood7781 yeah but the engineering process is not explain there…
Incredible. Your intelligence and innovation is top notch. It's crazy to see how smart some people are. People like you are the reason our society is as advanced as it is today. Your passion for engineering is inspiring. Your content is gold!

US military: _this can be arranged_
Just add a couple of high resolution cameras, paired with accelerometers, gyroscopes, an image recognition program, and a VR eyepiece (so you know what it is aiming at). Such a weapon would be extremely difficult to program but once the bugs are worked out it would be the ultimate medium range daytime weapon.

When you are so educational that sponsors would rather promote job advertisements to your viewers than trying to sell products.....
