The Drill Maker remote controller duplicates all the control functions of the tennis ball machine's control panel.It can control several brands of ball machine released by Spinball-Sports Industries Inc.Each oscillation feature or even every shot can be controlled through the application to make up different drills.
Manual button feed
Is there a way to manual feed one ball at a time ? I feel like this feature would benefit when giving private lessons and teaching players at the same time. App is great but very limited on the things you can do
Would love for randomized speed and spin
Love the tool and app so far. Would be great if the app and the machine firmware allows for a randomized speed and spin, preferably 4 to 5 dials worth of range. If the small range randomized could be applied to existing height and horizontal position that would be amazing!
Poor connectivity
Same issue as everyone else…. Connectivity drops when I move to the baseline. This seems to have started when I switched from Android to an iPhone. And yes, I installed the latest software. Reached out to customer service… they were quick to respond but nothing worked. Frustrating to spend 2k on a machine that I have to constantly walk back and forth to reset.
Recent update really tanked the ball machine
My Apple Watch could not consistently send the machine the proper drill, nor was the start or stop button working properly after the most recent update. Please fix ASAP
Expensive machine with limited app
Just bought this. The spinshot itself works great and its good to have the ability to control it with an app. But for goodness sake, making an app once and then never improving it ever again, is pretty cheap - especially so for a $2k machine. My wife and I use it - and I want her customizations to be reflected on my iPhone. My iPhone is told that the spinshot has a different configuration than is on my device - its then told by hitting save will "sync" my phone with the spinshot - instead it completely wipes out what is there with my device! Not a sync at all! How about actually making this so that it really does sync bi-directionally? And how about fixing the bugs that customers are complaining about before releasing another version of the spinshot? And how about some basic security? This is still v1.1 years later. Not good enough.
From the beginning to now
The Drill Maker starts with a 12 pre set drills to reference to help you customize the drills to suit your needs. Following the easy steps in the Owners Manual it helps your learning curve much faster. Customer Support was a huge help also answering my questions!
useable app
i do agree connectivity out on court remains a bit inconsistent. but besides that, the functionality of the app is superb. combining multiple drills alllws me to hit up to 72 different balls in one single hit of the "play" button. adaptng to wind factors is also a breeze on the fly by toggling speed, spin, and height.
