Glad to hear that Nicolo!
Workbench, DesignModeler, SpaceClaim and Mechanical all support Parametric Design capabilities. If you build the throwing arm in DesignModeler with a Parameter for the size of the ball so that as the ball diameter changes, the ball remains tangent to the cone, then you can access that Parameter in Workbench. There will be a Parameter set in the Project Schematic with a Table of Design Points. In there you can paste in 100 different rows for the ball size. In Mechanical, you can create an output parameter for horizontal distance at a specific time. That would be a Directional Deformation and would include the distance travelled while in the cone.
