Do you think if the axis would be vertical could be better? And then if the external magnet would be moved by electric energy, the inbound energy could be smaller than the output?
A vertical axis could indeed make sense very good idea. Not so sure about adding an electric power source to power the magnet, this way you are adding energy to the system, the idea is to have it run completely of itself (it's a perpetum mobile)
Yes indeed, but it would also take a lot of energy from the proces to drag the magnet along the copper sheet, because its the same principle as a bike dynamo then, it wants to produce current
You should redesign the lever mechanism, it to complicated. It has a lot of friction, which takes away energy and therefore lowering the efficiency

If you replace the lever contraption by a sheet of copper then it would be an even better magnetic brake.
