Mannnn even though you didn't do it for me I really appreciate you mentioning the stopping the blades when going to the next cutting task.... I hated when my bot would cut on the way to the next location leaving a bad cut line all the way across my lawn..... good call on the one. MAMMOTION is doing a DAMN good job with this product.
Good video describing the different mowing task modes. I hope Mammotion has it on their software task list to look at optimizing the efficiency of how the Luba cuts. It waste a fair amount of time, battery and increases wear & tear on the Luba in the way it goes from one side of the property to the other numerous times during cutting. I've noticed it leaving several uncut lines in several locations around the property because of where they are located. It will continue to cut and then all of a sudden as if it just realized it missed something it will turn around and head back over to the uncut lines and do them. All in all I am happy with my Luba. I can say it is better today then when I fist received mine back in May 2023. Mammotion is making progress and appears to be listening to people. I sincerely hope they make it and gets their keister together on Service Support. Thanks again for your videos. Looking forward to your next one. These are almost better than watching Korean Dramas.
@@Crazypostman I have seen a guy on RUclips seed his lawn with a new variety of zoysia. That might be a good bet if you want a warm season grass. Also will do ok in the shade. Other option is to go for a cool season grass like Kentucky 31 tall fescue or similar. Both good options but zoysia will need less water in summer. With fescue you will need to water frequent to stay green in summer.
My luba delivery has been delayed for the second time! As i watch these sucess stories i also see the broken blade disk that cant be bought, the broken axels and the I found my luba in the neighbors yard stories, hoping i get one that functions correctly and the antenna full of water problem has been fixed! Sitting here with fingers crossed.
You have to remember online forums have a strong bias for things going wrong. The thousands of people that have Lubas working correctly don't get on the forum to share that, Just the people that are upset because something went wrong. My advice to anybody would be to purchase through Amazon and also consider the extra Amazon add on warranty.
Thanks for the overview. I have now received my luba. Last evening I could not find it in the garden and already thought it was stolen. Then I eventually found it in the forrest next to our yard. Way outside the mapped parameter. Really wired! I wonder if the RTK antenna needs to receive an update. Hard to imagine where this bug came from...
Tested 2 no-go zon lapses the other day but it seemed like the luba mowed the outer lapse two times and not the inner lapse. Like it left a Luba wide path of grass around the no-go zones.
@@stimpen12 "Lapse" means a temporary deviation; a slip or error: a lapse of judgment; discontinuance due to a late payment: She let her insurance lapse. Not to be confused with: "Laps", more than one lap: She swam five laps in the pool. My cat sits in the laps of all of my guests whether they like her or not.
I’ll be interested to see your no go zone perimeter cutting. I’ve remapped all of my areas and no go zones since the update and it never cuts the no go zone perimeter. And I set that parameter to two laps. Confused? Thanks for the videos!
I've already filmed that I just haven't edited it yet. sooo backed up! I'll try to do it today but I didn't have any problems It did the no-go zone laps perfect.
No, You can relocate the charging station It will ask you if you move the charging station after you did it. If you move the RTK antenna, That's when you have to remap everything.
If you choose say a single grid pattern, then choose an offset of say 40°, will it mow 40° from the last time that zone was mowed or 40° from parallel with the starting side? I have it on a schedule to mow 5 zones and want Luba (named Chuck) to rotate 40° every time it mows without me having to adjust the angle every time. Also, any chance Mammotion will change the way no go zone borders are mowed to do them as Luba gets to them in the programming instead of doing all of them BEFORE the zig zag pattern?
The no-go-zone suggestion is great I hope Mammotion implements this... I find this degree offset seams to be 40°from what ever it does for it's efficient setting. I've hurd of ppl doing a manual mow every day of the week and just changing it by 10° everyday.
Lubas GPS matters equally, the way RTK works is Luba compares its GPS to what the RTK is sending and uses that information correct the error in its own GPS. The number of shared satellites between the two is what is important If Luba does not have enough satellites there's obviously going to be not enough shared between the two to see what the difference is and correct it.
Maybe it gives it more room to turn around so it doesn't have to be so close to the edge? In my front yard right next to the street is a pretty good angle If it goes around three or four times it's further up that hill then if it only goes around once so it's easier for it to turn around. I suppose it's mostly just personal preference. I'm sure it would be fine if you just chose one.
It also drastically reduces the likelihood of Luba getting stuck. Perimeters often are on the edge of rough areas, which trip up the mower if it has to turn every time at the edge of the cut area.
Do I have one of these... No. But I always watch your videos to the end.and I always enjoy watching luba do it's thing I want one of these buggers now to convince the wife.....
Not sure what was learned here. This lawn doesnt show the cut patterns well enough to see any differences in what's been programmed and the menu options need definition.
Hello Crazypostman I can see that you have 2 channels where Luba goes through the gate towards the front yard. My Luba went bonkers when I hade 2 channels that crossed one over the other. Try deleting the channel to your small patch of grass and see if your Luba still has problems getting from one yard to the other. Maybe the problem you have is because both channels cross one over the other instead of going one next to the other.
@@Crazypostman I was thinking of deleting the short channel, just to see if luba behaves better. Right now, your Luba acts confused not knowing which channel it should use, and sometimes it even goes onto your little pacth of grass, and then finally figures out it went on the wrong channel, and returns back onto the concrete. I think that you should remake both channels. The one to the front yard 2 inches right and the one to the small patch of grass 2 inches to the left of the center of the gate passing. Draw lines with chalk if that helps you navigate. And once you get past the gate, try to seperate both channels as far apart as possible. Hope that solves your problem.
Thanks for the Video- I will get my Luba soon hopefully 😅. I loved your longer videos too …. so don’t let others unsettle you, you are doing well 👍🏼

Now that it will do the no-go-zone patrol it makes cut paths all over going between them 😂

Did my first mow yesterday and it worked great. Thanks for the videos. It has helped quite a bit.
No problem I hope you have as much fun with it as I have!
You should do an overseed on your front lawn and get it looking really nice. Once it has grown in Luba can do the work cutting every couple of days.
What type of grass?
@@Crazypostman Depends on your climate? I forget where you are located?
@@richardportelli1983 Southwest Oklahoma, We have a lot of Bermuda and some fescue type in the shade. But my front yard is 50% sun 50% shade

Have you ever moved the rtk reference station? Could you send feedback to us？
@@KarlWang-q3e No. I have it fixed very high up on the balcony of our house on the very first day and have not moved it at all.
@@macster1000 How far didi Luba move out of the mapped perimeter? Could you send feedback to us?
@@KarlWang-q3e : Yes, that was about 2,5 Meters. It went into the bushes, down a ca. 8% slope, made about a 90 Degree turn and stayed there.

What are "lapses" ?
@@uuzd4s In this case lapses are the number of times(lapses) that the Luba goes around the no-go zone. It's an option.

What does path spacing mean on the luba 1000
Hey , Mr. postman If you move charring station will I need to remap whole lawn.
No, You can relocate the charging station It will ask you if you move the charging station after you did it. If you move the RTK antenna, That's when you have to remap everything.

I do Sunday Tuesday Friday and it is 40, efficient, -40
It mows if it needs it or not.
@@lucasnehls4684 sounds perfect
Crazy, well done! You have subscribers even from another continent :). Thumbs up for no-go zones tests.
Thank you very much!
I wonder why it seem such an issue when Luba looses satelite connection as I thought that this is what the RTK antenna is for.
Lubas GPS matters equally, the way RTK works is Luba compares its GPS to what the RTK is sending and uses that information correct the error in its own GPS. The number of shared satellites between the two is what is important If Luba does not have enough satellites there's obviously going to be not enough shared between the two to see what the difference is and correct it.
@@Crazypostman Ah ok. I see. Thanks for that info. Guess I will habe to trim some hedges then! Greatly appreciated ☺️
Crazy, what's the purpose of having Luba mow the perimeter three times? Isn't once enough?
Maybe it gives it more room to turn around so it doesn't have to be so close to the edge? In my front yard right next to the street is a pretty good angle If it goes around three or four times it's further up that hill then if it only goes around once so it's easier for it to turn around.

Maybe the problem you have is because both channels cross one over the other instead of going one next to the other.
I will try this but ultimately I will always need two channels unless I decide not to automate that tiny strip
