I used a 173cc gas engine, this engine has a battery charging function, the charging is too weak to cope with the current consumption, but it significantly extends the working time. The mower is powered by two 200w 350rpm motors, the electric motors are powered by two rc brushed motor speed controller. I used an electric lift with a maximum lifting capacity of 200 kg to adjust the height, I powered the rc brush motor speed regulator, it is less powerful than the ones I powered the motors with. The gas engine is turned off by a two-channel rc relay that I connected to the coil, After the remote control is turned off or the range is lost, the relay closes the contacts, which causes the engine to stop working. I adjusted all dimensions to the size of the mower housing and wheels mini quad. Working with a remote-controlled gas mower is a pleasure and great fun, the range of the remote control is large, so your legs will thank you for such work :)
Control parts I used:
Controller RC Electric engine -amzn.to/4aME1oi
Controller RC electric lift - amzn.to/44ebZ2x
Remote Transmitter - amzn.to/3Wb9EU4
Gear Reduction Brushed Electric Motor - amzn.to/4bafXLR
Electric Linear Actuator DC 12V - amzn.to/3xI0Fj6

no dialog; letting the work speak for itself. no super loud and annoying music. this is a fantastic video and build.

@johanhaukeness9492 2 года назад

This is by far your best idea! Absolutely Legendary. The first person setup is unbelievable. So impressive! Sitting in a chair in the shade while mowing is the actualization of dreams.

@@WorkshopFromScratch , so, I take it that you live in the UK? I know of some places where this would be a good idea to manufacture. Also, you could get some agreements with the government and have places, like, say, national parks, national military parks, golf courses, and, most importantly, disabled people that are on low incomes, have this sort of thing to help them out with their lawn care needs. Now all that we need is a combination weed eater and lawn edger, with adjustable capabilities, a hedge trimmer, and a snow/dust/leaf blower, with all of them being remote controlled, and a person could have their own lawn care business. I am serious, you should make a legitimate business with your various devices, as it could be as much of a game changer, if not even more so, than the devices that companies like Worx and DR develop in my country.

@kennwashi4093 2 года назад

This type of mower would be perfect for those with physical disabilities, who cannot afford to pay for the mowing services from others. Thank you so much for this video. Would it be possible to add programming software and/or GPS functionality for the mower?

@luemas3219 2 года назад

Great idea. Therein lies a dilemma. Pre-covid this machine is easily deep into four figures of price. Perhaps a machine could be subsidized within a program vehicle and be made affordable in this way

excellent invention. RC. I wish to see one day: 1. pair with a drone and the AI will mow the whole lawn by itself. 2. able to pull a module for dethatch the dead grass underneath, scarify the lawn and aerate at the same time. 3. Scarify and collect derbis together 4. pick up the grass, in whatever way after yourself - roll up in hay like OR bag plastic bag. 5. Pull a trolly and spread fertilizers, 6. pull a trolly and spread overseedings. 7. use laser and measure where are the spots to help levelling. Excellent thing!!!

I like to see good fabrication techniques like gussets and bolt through construction and/or use of threaded inserts which actually have structural integrity vs so many of the RU-vid "makers" who think it's OK to thread thin-wall tubing for bolts and expect their projects to actually work beyond the 30 second demo at the end of their videos..

@patrickbrown3766 Год назад

@@WorkshopFromScratch I second that, super cool build. My only suggestion is hanging the cutting deck with chains and installing a string of rollers on the leading edge so that when it hits an immovable object like a rock, log, or uneven ground it bumps the deck up without transferring all the force to the plastic actuator.

You should raid a roomba's electronics and go full automated, and have it double as security

@jvmiller1995 Год назад

This is pretty damn cool. As much time and work and money that you spent you should of used a multi blade deck from a rider and done at least a 42 or 48 in cut. If you put small tracks on the rear for better grip it would serve as a great mower for slopes that are to big or dangerous for a rider too. But overall this looks like fun. As always great job. You are the best channel for these kind of builds. You started out with very little equipment to it is nice to see your shop and skillmanship grow.

@WorkshopFromScratch 2 года назад

Silnik posiada ładowanie słabo wydajne ale zawsze trochę wydłuży pracę bez ładowania nie sprawdzałem. Nie mierzyłem czasu ale moja działka ma 30arów skosiłem około 60% działki bo reszta to drzewka kwiaty itp, po tym czasie dalej jeżdziłą ale już ledwo nawet można powiedzieć że trochę przesadziłem i mało co akumulatorów nie popsułem bo napięcie spadło poniżej 10v, ale podczas tego koszenia i tak musiałem robić kilku minutowe postoje bo okazało się że silniki które zamontowałem szybko się grzeją i trzeba teraz pomyśleć nad chłodzeniem, przez ich nagrzewanie też spadała ich wydajność co napewno skutkowało zwiekszeniem poboru prądu. Po dłuższej pracy będę mógł coś więcej powiedzieć bo narazie to testy :) Dziękuje, pozdrawiam :)

@Bassguitarist1985 2 года назад

Great idea and amazing build! You should put air filters on the electronics fan. Dont let it pull dusty air in and get all over the electronics! Also the engine rpm should not exceed 3600RPMS. It sounded far higher than that.

@WorkshopFromScratch 2 года назад

Thank you 😁 You are right with this filter, I will definitely do it. The motor I use is a Chinese motor, and I can't even find the name of the manufacturer, I once bought a mower with this motor in a supermarket and it had such a high speed rmp.

@rolandolaserie6935 Год назад

The machine is incredible. I'm in love with it. I see that there are lots of weeds. It would be easier to cut the grass if you add more grass seeds and get a broad leave selective weed killer. Then add fertilizer to the grass. Your lawn will look a lot better. Im a gardener, btw.

@Chris-uu2td 2 года назад

GPS-Sensors are rather cheap these days. You could attach one to a microcontroller and write a routine which navigates from one waypoint to the next. Throwing in a compass module or an accelerometer too won't probably hurt either. Involves some math and will probably take a few test runs and some tweaking to get it right but then you'd have an autonomous lawn mower which works completely offline.

@AiMR 2 года назад

There is an open source project for GPS guided robot mowers. As cool as the remote-control feature is, it will quickly become boring. This way, you can just tell it to mow the backyard with a phone app.
