I don't know much about it but I would think it would be easier to make one that uses the main components of a regular mower, and just changes how it is moved (like video 1 or 2), instead of making some big thing with tracks.

OMG.........this mindset(inherent to a society becoming "too lazy" to do any kind of "work") may actually bring to bear the futuristic settings portrayed in many movies of a 22nd Century where ALL work is performed by "robots" and eventually(with their faulty artificial intelligience) they "take over":0)

Men.....get off your lazy behinds and mow the yard!!!!!!!

OMG, how about a disabled person? And same can be said for those who ride around when they have a small yard.
Looks like you get a lot of exercise jumping to conclusions.

Very easy to make one with your kid as a school project. But to really use one to cut your grass first off why?

For all the time and money your going to spend to make this and get your yard as level and hole and bump free It would be less energy and time just to get up and cut the grass

(( cowboy up and get over it ))

So a disabled person gets one then has to call a friend for help because it keeps getting stuck.

Your yard needs to be putting green smooth

So after you buy one or build one for a grand or more then a few grand on the yard again why?

Soooooo, R U disabled???? I am(polio survivor). When my Post Polio Syndrome gets bad enough that I am physically unable to mow my lawn, I will contract with user Ric or Lawn Mower Fanatic to come to Tennessee and mow it for me. You asked for "opinions" and that's what you got. And for those with a "small yard", I have a pair of scissors they can borrow. Lighten up......I was just making light of the thread topic as we all like to smile from time to time here on the forums. Sorry if I "offended you".

Oh so you would not let me cut your grass? And I am only 15 mins from Tennessee.

I just grabbed to usernames and posted them. You, actually would be a much more viable candidate(and the travel charge versus Ric from Florida or lmf from Pennsylvania would be a LOT cheaper:0)

What part of Georgia are you in. My sister lives in White, Georgia(used to live in Cartersville) and has worked at the Shaw Carpet Mill for 25+ years.

I survived the polio epidemic in the 50's in Hoboken. Not an easy time but glad you made it.

I have new knees but that is about it and I never intended to buy one. Maker is in a few law suits; appears not to be reputable.

My sons and i were into RC 1/8 nitro buggy racers (black hole to put way too mcuh money into) but also too much fun. I am always curious about RC applications. Still do my yard on my Exmark metro; takes me about an hour, 1/2 for either boy. but I do need to get a ES getting too old to pull over the Kohler.

Moving to the beach in a year or so, huge yard and probably will get a 48 ES. Love the Exmark.

Yeah, RC toys can be lots of fun(and if over-indulged in can add up to a lot of $). When I retire in a few months, I would like to get a couple of nice RC airplanes or boats to enjoy with the grandkids.

If they are disabled they can hire out or have the grand child mow or neighbor kid or neighbor

That being said I would like to use these commercially I know its not effecient or even plausible to do this I just picture pulling up to a house while I stay seated in my a/c and mow their lawn. It would be nice but just not possible :)

We have an old saying in Information Technology that would fit here......."look alive, remember you can always be replaced by a PF key(button) with some AI(Artificial Intelligence)".
