Does this do a random orbit pattern, or just spin?

It does not spin, so I guess a back an forth orbit pattern is what it does.

Throws in same pattern every time. You can purchase a wobbler kit that will give random throws everytime.

It has done this for me on multiple occasions. I won't say it does so every time, but it usually does. Even if it doesn't, if you make a U-turn on your own, it will figure this out, and get you back on a route to your destination.

You have to spin it yourself. It's a basic banding wheel. While mine needed a bit of grease, otherwise, it spins very smoothly and very evenly.

From what I've seen while using spot lock, it varies the speed automatically based on the distance from your spot. The further you are, the more it uses. The closer you are, the less it uses. It does overshoot a bit, but never really that far.

I just checked. It spins around, moves up-down, forward and backward. I didn't see anyway of removing it form its mount. Didn't want to manipulate it to much.

No the starts dont physically move about. But if you place it on auto color change it rotates the colors changing but stars stay put :) Had it 6 months now have not changed batteries still.I think it's the best out there.Tried a few.Highly recommend makes a great gift too.

Top spins and side spins are determined by the position of the head of the robot. No. This robot's head has to be adjusted manually. You are talking about a robot that is at least 1.200 US$ and above. Butterfly Amicus and Smart Pong are examples of this, but they are way too expensive. However, RoboPong is such a good bargain for the money. I am happy I bought it. The drills are awesome. I can also create the kinds of drills I want. It is very good for fitness as well. Good luck.

The Ooch is an odd one. Its slightly non responsive but not over time. Its not good with loops either. What tricks this one would be best for it short sleep tricks like atomic bomb, brain twister and crazy baby. But tricks likes bud-as revenge whirl y bird or matrix could be tricky because it would respond during transitions.

It has a button that reads "Osc" for the oscillation feature on the top of the unit. You just press the button to turn it off and press the same button again to turn it off. It doesn't do a complete turn but it does rotate fully from left to right.

Yes. In fact, I use mine in the stationary position. Just push down on the oscillation knob on top to make it oscillate. Pull up on the knob to make it stationary in any direction.

Yes mine spins. The one you have may be bent during shipment rendering it stiff.

It can be turned to face whatever direction you need but I would not say it "spins".

Yes it does, you short press the "DEL" button to go in to random/shuffle mode.

Yes. Mixing attachments orbit in a circle as they rotate in their own axis.

Yes, it does. I've had it do this on me, it takes a few seconds to spin back up after a long break.

The sander does not operate in a circular motion...for that you would want to consider a Random Orbital Sander
