Mammotion Yuka VS Leaves

[@Crazypostman]

I didn't mention the battery levels. The first section used about 25% of the battery, and the second section used about 25% of the battery. When I finished up at the end of the day, it still had 50%. If you have two batteries for your Yuka, that thing will just go forever.

I had AI summarize the video to see what it come with. And it's actually pretty good. The Crazypostman takes the Yuka to his parents' • house, where there are many pecan leaves in the backyard (0:33) He sets up the Yuka with an RTK base station, which helps the Yuka accurately navigate its environment. (3:18) He maps out a small area of the backyard to see how the Yuka performs (7:14) The Crazypostman has the Yuka sweep the leaves with a short dumping interval (9:39) The Yuka gets stuck trying to push a large pile of leaves, but the Crazypostman helps it out (12:51) The Yuka does a pretty good job of sweeping up the leaves in the mapped area, but the Crazypostman points out that it might need some improvements to its dumping routine (15:04) The Crazypostman then tests out the Yuka's mowing and sweeping capabilities in a larger section of the yard (17:16) • In conclusion, the Crazypostman is impressed with the Yuka's leaf sweeping abilities, although he notes some areas that could be improved (18:44)

Gotta stick around through the extras. That’s typically where we get the fun clips of Duck or PapaPostman!

Today it was just more sweeping. My goal is always 7 to 10 minute videos. I don't know how they get to 20 minutes. 🤣

Mulching and collection of leaves is one reason I still need to own a gas mower. It is nice to see this robot make an attempt. The little razor blades don't seem to mulch as well as a beefy sharp blade of a gas-powered mower. It will only get better over the years. Do I need to by both a Yarbo and a Yuka? Lol.

[@Crazypostman]

@@biffhenderson1144 Yeah, Yarbo, Yuka and Luba are all not going to do well, mulching leaves Because of the type of blades they have. The Yarbo has the blower and the Yuka has the sweeper 🤣 After the leaves get dry and brittle, the yarbo will probably be able to smash them up with the big tracks after driving over them a few times.

[@CollinLutz-p9e]

No memes for when you say the dumping spot this time. Lol. That video made me laugh.

[@Crazypostman]

@@CollinLutz-p9e missed opportunity! Dang it.

[@CollinLutz-p9e]

@Crazypostman lol. I'm just surprised you didn't do it. Every time I heard you say it, I thought of the early video at your place.

[@CollinLutz-p9e]

Btw, Yarbo is here. Just waiting for the first big snow now. Mower module will probably be here in a week or two. This thing is most definitely a beast. I'm going to get a yard sweeper to tow with it to take care of my leaves and branches.

[@Crazypostman]

@@CollinLutz-p9e What a beast! Get you a wagon and you won't ever have to walk anywhere in your yard again 🤣

[@CollinLutz-p9e]

@Crazypostman I might. I've seen videos of them doing just that. The follow me feature is really cool.

[@networkg]

I have successfully removed (thanks to a hurricane) and put back both the RTK and the Charging Station, with one caveat, the RTK post stayed put and I was careful to leave the Charging Station stakes in their original positions. My maps were still good.

[@Crazypostman]

@@networkg Yeah, if you get it back in the exact same position, you should be okay.

👍👍

[@CollinLutz-p9e]

I'm thinking of getting the new litter-robot. Need to go through reviews to see if they fixed the issues with the last models, which ended up failing.

[@ChasTucker]

Would it be beneficial to buy this just for sweeping if I already have a luba for cutting? I have a ton of leaves from my oak trees... would be nice to have that picked up!

[@henriklindberg7432]

Would it pickup nuts like chestnuts?
