Ask The Experts: Rachid El Boubou, No. 259 Butterfly Table Tennis Question and Answer
Question: I want to change my racket for a Butterfly racket, but it has to be similar like my racket (Neottec Gamma Seven). What blades and what rubbers i should buy?
The Primorac blade without carbon is very similar to the Gamma Seven blade.
It is very good for beginners because its wood allows the ball to stay on the racket longer, which helps you serve longer providing good feel and control.
My advice is to use this blade at the beginning. I used it for several years.
Best of luck!

The Google Sheets image takes you to a spreadsheet that gives the settings for each drill. While these won’t be the exact settings for the Control Panel on your robot, they will give you an idea of where to start, and you’ll need to adjust from there. At the bottom, we’ve included the ranges and defaults for the setting on a Prime so you can compare these to the ranges and defaults on your own robot. In general, default settings should give you a similar ball regardless of what model you have. If a drill has a change of speed, spin, or trajectory, you will be unable to replicate that drill on a Basic or Start model.
