Homemade RC Hybrid Lawn Mower FPV

I used an old lawn mower with an electric starter and battery charging. Although charging is inefficient, it significantly extends the operating time.
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

Didn't you get any warning from youtube for uploading these videos 2 times?

[@Cerberus984]

I've known someone whose gotten a DUI on a lawnmower but I wonder if you could get one piloting a RC mower.

[@martinsendker4599]

Nach dem Umbau des Rasenmäher ist der Benzinverbrauch um 200% gestiegen 😂👍🤘

[@rickpalechuk4411]

Just need the GPS guidance system 😁 Turned out nice, thanks for sharing Cheers

[@thefreedomguyuk]

GPS will not provide sufficient precision.

[@saveriog.825]

​@@thefreedomguyuk that's not true, there are rtk robotic lawnmowers that use 2 gps antennas to achieve pretty exact positioning. Check Segway Navimow robots!

[@zeke7142003]

That has got to be the best thing I've seen on KZbin!

[@hariseldon2577]

Minimum cost £450, before steel etc

[@warrior4christ777]

Really?

[@scottdamboise9379]

Great idea. I had to turn the volume down so I could watch it. You sound like Darth Vader with the heavy breathing...

[@jooch_exe]

Not everything has to be ASMR

[@sinegra30]

Now make it an autonomous robot lawn mower

[@Vandal_Savage]

Very nice! I like the ruggedness and ingenuity of your creations - it reminds me a little bit of the A - Team 😊

[@InfinityGarage-ig8py]

Thank you 😁

[@johnbywaters9357]

Excellent , I would be incy bit worried at the motor not ceasing going over the long grass weeds stuff with all the extra added weight

[@Pablo453]

Very nice build. These are great to have. No more walking in a dust cloud getting your feet full of grass! I made one years back and plan to build a few for the neighbors next. Thanx for sharing.

[@kljunatic8157]

I made one with a pulley off the blade shaft that runs a 24v alternator no need to charge batteries again. Nice job!

[@melvingreaves7590]

I like it but you have to sharpen the blade,love it.

[@tedbastwock3810]

Thanks for the links in the description, that is super helpful for learning!!! Great project, yours is the best rc mower out there!

[@InfinityGarage-ig8py]

Thank you 😁

[@clubsoda85cook55]

Here take my credit card, when can I expect delivery? Great job man!

[@danielisaiah5178]

yep

[@ShainAndrews]

Beautiful country. Really like you included height control.

[@jerrypugh1419]

Great Job indeed! Now if you had a lemonade stand you'd be rich$$$$

[@FirstTry379]

This is awesome! It does look a little expensive to build unless you already have most of the parts.

[@vinceianni4026]

Hello mister beautifully made good job well done

[@InfinityGarage-ig8py]

Thank you 😁

[@colinsmith6340]

All you need to do now is have the mower engine recharge the batteries, then its a proper hybrid.

[@williethompson1222]

That's neat. RCT mowers & trim

[@philstabile173]

What a great build.simple strong and effective.love your work.

[@simonburri8178]

Super gut 🔧🔩👍🤣

[@InfinityGarage-ig8py]

Thank you 😁

I pomyślałem, że moje samoloty sterowane radiowo są niesamowite. Dobrze zrobiony! Dzięki! (Courtesy of Google Translate)

[@InfinityGarage-ig8py]

Thank you. This is still my first RC machine, there are still many things I need to learn :) If you build RC planes it's amazing :)

[@paulstir]

great build ,fun project ,and over engineered built to last , total back saver , i might just get round to building one for myself one day )) thanks for sharing

[@Dstromb232]

NICE WORK.

[@rubberduck4966]

You need to add a charging-port in your garage and a wireless-engine-start functionality!

[@jacobdyer9164]

good job. work smarter. not harder.

[@Kimnoeurn]

I like your video

[@hallowelt9296]

Thank you 😁

[@210419590457]

Superbe machine, vraiment du très beau travail. Bravo !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 👍👍👍👍

[@zapman60]

Out frickin standing! But hit the mower blade edge with an angle grinder, them blades are dull af from the mfg. Good job!

[@joshtheis69]

That’s one awesome build Way cool. Bro

[@larryperdue508]

Add another cutting blade in cross pattern and you will be all set 😊

[@jooch_exe]

Love this project, look at it go!

[@garrisonolival8780]

Awesome video !

[@ps6k4trk33]

Very nice project, good job, congrats

[@luzern1000]

🔝👍

[@ImpactVideoProduct]

Excellent, now for GPS control

[@rickainsley6895]

Great stuff well done fella.

[@AhmadKahfiz]

good job👍🏽…advise sir you need add on altenator to continuous charging the battery

[@shk2564]

Looks great but I would have found a riding mower and used that big cutting deck and motor that could put all the power into cutting only and the rest would work the same but it would devour the high grass and cut your time in half! Pun intended. And I would sit inside in the air conditioning and have some iced tea! 😂

[@nathanbynum9679]

Now that’s very cool.

[@RCTRUCKDIY]

Good jop❤❤

[@donaldburkhard7932]

Well thought out. Electric start remote so not have to get up when stalls?

[@thierrycln]

Excellente réalisation. Je désirerais connaître les références des moteurs et des pièces électroniques utilisées pour la télécommande. Merci pour votre retour. Thierry

[@dompasdafons8704]

Super bien

[@saveriog.825]

That's very nice, but you should check for Segway Navimow robotic lawnmower with gps guidance!

[@ljprep6250]

Sure, at $1250, it's about 5x more expensive than this one, and a whopping 7.1 inch cutting width!

[@nb117]

Add Geofencing and GPS and you will be all set..

[@ljprep6250]

That's a really trick machine, dude. I think a trio of vidcams would do the accuracy some real good. One to back up, one on each of the front wheels to guide the cutting row accuracy, with a switch to change channels = you're sweet. What was the cost of goodies sans the mower deck? How long do the 3 batteries last? Does anyone know of a spray or coating which can make the deck less sticky to cut grass pieces?

[@jamieevans871]

my first though was use gps to map out the course and set and forget like trolling motors set a course sit back with a beer till done lol

[@TROYD9669]

Just need a little adjustment 👌🏾

[@Mad-Duk_Machine_Werkes]

You welded up the deck and made it a 100% Mulcher, but then didnt install a mulching blade? isn't it going to wad up with grass and shut down?

[@irwincw]

He did install as mulching blade, you can see the notches on each side of the blade. The problem is you're only supposed to mulch down a quarter length of the grass at a time that's why it's bunching. After this mow he can do it more often and it will mulch well.

[@warrior4christ777]

I made the same thing except I just used lawn over steel peg and a cord

[@MegaDirtyberty]

Ok family, who is going to mow the lawns today?. I will no I will no I will...

[@montymc450]

Clever

[@radomircelko5199]

Seper😊

[@Kras12345]

Just my 2-cents as an uneducated individual with 0 experience in this sort of thing (though a massive interest). Would the bigger tires not be better placed at the front on the same motor and then a single tire on the rear that controls direction so that you dont have a scenario where you may give un-equal speed and can properly go straight?

[@AJVAN_]

Why not put some type of alternator to recharge battery when the engine is running?

[@InfinityGarage-ig8py]

I used a motor with a battery charging function. Charging is from a coil and is much too weak to meet the current consumption, but significantly lengthens the work. The test I did was carried out without taking breaks for charging,

[@AJVAN_]

@@InfinityGarage-ig8pyGot it. But still as a side project belt driven alternator would work. The engine seems powerful enough to meet the demand of both nowing and charging

[@user-qh5hz4rp9t]

Работа колоссальная, но непрактично, если только для диплома 😊

[@randyevans6774]

OK, so what did you actually do to the actuator when he took the cap off

[@1osmosiss]

Those fans are going to suck in dust, and didn’t see a charging port for those batteries.

[@claytonmoore4323]

You think you could do an in depth video on your wiring

[@InfinityGarage-ig8py]

I won't hide the fact that my electrical and wiring skills are quite poor. I connected everything using the instructions that came with the RC controllers. The engine was equipped with an electric starter and battery charging, so it made my work much easier, the only thing I improved was to add a current fuse to the connection of each regulator, and I used a main switch which I connected to the relays :)

[@albertcebriariu4469]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@dalejones2108]

Nice job but it would be faster witch riding mower witch wider deck.

[@LovingAllLife]

There was a belt drive pulley on petrol engine that could drive an alternator. No?

[@rosiroser]

Can you attach the circuit shematic of electric component please?

[@hemusbull]

It needs intelligent human control, especially if it works on my hilly side yard...

[@nicola809]

Quanto hai speso per tutto il lavoro come soldi e come ore di lavoro? Complimenti

[@MrTarmairon]

32:40 LOL

[@spyblanc1970]

super serais t il possible d en acheter une?

[@user-zg3yq7ot9r]

Hello, must need value addition, autonomous fully electric, solar power, programmable as per user desire 2D pattern or bitmap file.

[@brandondow6348]

Where is the gas tank held at

[@TPQ1980]

Good work, well done. Now you just need to find a way to plug the controller into a computer and have AI mow your lawn while you go to the gym and work on your gains while listening to an audio book on philosophy and you've almost achieved the ideal for modern Western man.

[@MrTarmairon]

Kann ich den haben😁

[@johnspathonis1078]

Great mechanical job but a little disappointed. I thought in this day and age that the mower would be programmable and GPS controlled. We own two vacuum cleaners/mops that can autonomously clean any room in the house.

[@mozyaman]

Darth Wader?

[@DCDLaserCNC]

For sure! With the heavy mouth breathing, I had to mute the audio.

[@STARVATION-ed3zp]

E bem ruim este cortador de grama.

[@ryansmyth3877]

Where is the grass box and how do you empty it?????

[@joh185]

Mulshing !!

[@psyfreaky5857]

Lol, nobody noticed that there is no grass coming out of the lawn mower and he put a white engine before and now there is an oragne one 😀

[@ShainAndrews]

You mean he painted the white cover orange, and you either chose to ignore or lack the wit to understand what 15:40 is. Your lack of understanding does not change the complexity of the world around you.

[@thefreedomguyuk]

Fun, but not very useful. Need a guidance system.

This is my second channel, on this channel I publish older videos without music and with previously unpublished video shots :)

[@csabavarnai422]

It stood out that this was the same video, because I also started such a project on the basis of it. I watched many videos on the subject and found yours to be the most sympathetic! In principle, we already have everything for it, we just need to put it together, which is going quite slowly. I don't have the same equipment or practice as you, but sooner or later I hope to get the work together! I saw that you completely closed the mower house! Is this not a problem in larger grass? Doesn't the engine get stuck with so much grass that you can't throw it out anywhere? Thank you for the video! (Google Translate) @@WorkshopFromScratch
