A variation—an acceleration chamber like a synchrotron (or other circular acceleration system), with a flick to release a payload towards space. not sure if it would be viable on something heavier than a particle, and what would happen. to the payload being stretched in various G-forces, or how high you would get. (not being up on my physics enough to say if it would be catastrophic or viable)

I think all you need to do to release the payload is to stop flicking it, so that part should be easy.
I guess,
so:
how much crushing centrifugal G force can the thing you are trying to send into space handle,
how much momentum does it take to leave the earth’s atmosphere from ground-level
could you combine this method and another propulsion method?
