This is basically my yard here in the woods. So steep in the back at about 25 degrees it is trying to mow by hand. Looking forward to getting a 435AWD. Thanks for the videos!
Do you know if the mower can be set to different areas. I have 3 steep fields each at the limit of these mowers, it would be great to know if they can be sent to different locations to do their job.
Yes the mower can be set up with different zones. They are adding a feature called AIM to these AWD models in the spring of 2022 that will allow you to tell it to mow a certain area at a certain time and not just break it down by percentages of times it's leaving the charger like the current system.
@@RoboticMowerServices Thanks for the info, trying to find a local dealer to try to get a demo. After all the rain we have had here this summer the grass is growing just about as fast as I can mow it.
Liked and subscribed! Question: would a dealer be able to use google earth to consider if robotic mower would applicable for the terrain laylout of the customer? We live in Florida and our house is on what I call a compare to a mound. Half St Augustine the other zoysia. Thanks for any feedback….and thank you for sharing the content.
Thanks for the support!! You can use Google to a certain extent. The problem that you run into with Google Earth is that some of the pictures can be old and outdated for the layout and condition of the property. One of the biggest issues is trees and knowing what is under them. You can get a good idea of what the property is like from Google, but NOTHING beats a visit to the property to examine it in person.
@@RoboticMowerServices wait, it actually drives them down? i have a big garden and like over 100 molehills driving me crazy. that shotgun solution is sady not possible in germany :/
Well I held off buying because the technology does not quite meet my aspirations. I see Ambrogio (and other spin off brands with identical machines) are marketing a 4WD Robotic Lawnmower, with the fixed blades that may be better for mulching leaves. It allegedly has the same slope handling capability so at least now there is some competition. However Husqvarna has released its EPOS Robotic Mower that does not need a boundary wire. The benefits of this are that it can be dynamically configured to omit or include areas, which means I can exclude the areas with daffodils and bluebells until they die back. Furthermore it can switch off cutting whilst crossing a gravel drive to mow other lawns. However Husqvarna have not released a 4WD version of this...yet? Husqvarna do not give out much information about the way the EPOS Reference Antenna works with the mower to make GPS accurate, so it is hard to know what happens in wireless black spots or how such black spots may be overcome. When I enquired of Husqvarna I was referred to my dealer......come on Husqvarna how much do you really expect a lawnmower salesman to know about wireless technology?
If they're a serious Automower dealer then they would have some information about the EPOS mower because Husqvarna recently had a webinar for dealers about the EPOS mower and how it works and WHERE it works. The EPOS mower will only work in very limited areas. They make it very clear to dealers, company reps, and anyone else that inquires about EPOS mowers that they are NOT made for residential use because they will likely have issues from signal blockage. There is no current way to overcome "black spots" and that is why they recommend the EPOS mower to only be used in wide open areas. It also works better the closer that you get to the equator because the satellites are lower (closer to the Earth) because of the contour of the Earth. They were made available for dealers to order here in the United States earlier this year, but very few of them have been shipped to dealers yet due to the shortages of everything from the Covid-19 ripple effect, and because they are still tweaking some things on these mowers to help them perform better. As for the Ambrogio AWD mower you mentioned, it is currently $800 more than a Husqvarna AWD model.
@@RoboticMowerServices Thanks for that. I was made aware that if the mower loses the reference signal it stops. However there could be ways around that, depending on how they use the reference signal. If it is just transmitting a correction factor wrt to the static reference point then the signal itself could be amplified and distributed through multiple antennas to cover blind spots. If it is the signal itself that is used to measure distance to the reference point then it would require multiple reference points to cover blind spots. Given their sales pitch is based on applications in Sweden I'm guessing that notwithstanding the distance from the equator that it would work OK in the UK. Interesting, they actually make Husqvarna machines in the UK and yet the Ambrogio is £700.00 cheaper here.
What rubbish are you trying to demo? I see no grass cut or leaves mulched - what was going below the robot is exactly what was coming out. Were you paid by the company to make this marketing piece? Are you for example able to recommend a single mower robot clearly illustrating all or most of the distinguishing features in a video? Why show us forest when many of the new home buyers hardly have a lawn? What's the point beyond that this looks quite like the RC vehicle that my son wasnt even fond of??😒
This is an all-wheel drive model. How can you demonstrate the ability for an all-wheel drive articulating mower to maneuver over and around rough terrain by putting it in a small flat lawn? We have several other videos on this channel showing and explaining other features of this model. But from your comment asking if we are "able to recommend a single mower robot clearly illustrating all or most of the distinguishing features in a video?" it is easy to tell that you have not watched our other videos or visited our website to see all of the information we provide about Automowers.

It a neat machine to watch slithering around the lawn.
That cat is baffled 😂
Sometimes he's scared of it.........and other times he tries to attack it

I mean is it cutting the grass? I can’t tell lol
Yep it is cutting.
What is the best mower to buy ? In florida
Depends on the property size, terrain, complexity, etc.
what about molehills? how the mower handles them?
Ours has done well with them so far. It has managed to wiggle and crawl it's way out of the ones it has encountered so far.
A grub controller and 12 ga shotgun will take care of that problem...

Any update?
It's still working great in that area. Way quieter, safer, and cost efficient than mowing that area with the lawn tractor.
