- Hey everyone, thanks for checking out this video! Today, I'm building a DIY tennis ball machine inspired by the features of the Spin Fire Pro 2 and Lobster Elite 2.
This machine is packed with everything a player could want:
An automatic ball feeder for continuous play
A ball detection system to ensure smooth launching
Powerful launching wheels with adjustable speed and spin
A dual-motor oscillation system for versatile shot placement (up/down, side/side)
Tech Specs Deep Dive
To achieve this functionality, I'm using:
An Arduino 2560 for central control
Geared DC motors for ball feeding and oscillation (with encoders for precise movement)
High-speed 775 DC motors (up to 10,000 RPM) for powerful launching
Robust motor drivers to handle demanding motor operations
Dual remote control system: Radio for on-court operation and IR for close-up adjustments
A long-lasting 12V, 20Ah power supply to keep the fun going
A fuse box for ultimate safety (because even the best shots can be unpredictable!)
This is going to be an exciting build! Join me as we bring this machine to life and see if it lives up to the hype.

Thanks for watching!
Semmma great video very professional and to the point. Looking forward for the next in line
Thank you Sam, the next one is in the oven and will be out soon.
Hey Sam, the next video is up!!! Here is the link - th-cam.com/video/liPc23Brem4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=NjwLbNvOaDb_23uB.
Hope you like it :)
great idea, but here we have partners but the tennis court😅
Haha, yeah the courts are a prerequisite lol… hope you find one mate
Fingers crossed! I hope to see the finished machine. Can I ask for a detailed description of how you connect the launching wheels to the motors once you will be at this stage of construction?
Hi mate, thanks for your comment, I explain it a bit in my next video that should drop in the next few days. So watch out for that. Thanks again.
hey could u help me with the dimension and mechanisms with all the parts required to make the TBM. I want to recreate the 3D version of it on SolidWorks. It'd would of great help to me.
Hi there, I sure ca, but its going to take me sometime. Check out my progress in other videos if not already done. I am in a redesign phase at the moment. Should have the new design up shortly.
I will make my designs available for anyone to use but I am not there yet 👍🏽
Hey man, i have the same wish than you, I studied to build one of that 3 months ago and now i found your video. For me, my main dificult is the mecanicals parties.
Can you share with me your model project?
Welcome to the club mate, I too am in the same boat and I have decided to take a step back and work the mechanicals with an expert. Its not easy to build this without serious tools and experience. Something i learnt while make the ball launcher module. I explain this in the next video that should be up in a couple of days.
could you provide the links of the parts to buy. Also what and from where can i can the wheels, if you can provide those details and link
Hi There, I havent put together a list to buy yet because I havent finished building it completely. I am experimenting with different ideas at the moment. Once I am done, I will make a list or manual of sorts so anyone can give it a shot.
Nice, Great job, can i have the Diagram for ARDUINO
Cheers, I've put up the circuit diagram in another video. Check out Part 2. Part 4 dives deeper into the code's logic as well. Hope those two videos help.
