    While serving, shuttle landed correctly in opposite court but touched top of the net. Will that be counted as fault? Thanks in advance.

    No, it's not a fault.

    I've even heard that the Chinese doubles players practise doing this!

    Yep - there's no "second service" in badminton - if it goes over the net and lands in, it's a legal serve.

    you can use the string card board with 2 clips. Put it at the middle of the net and serve against it. ;) Should come close to the net. ;)
