Hi everyone, I about to get a robotic mower for this ~5000m yard with lots of trees and some steep/rough passages. I’m choosing between Lymow one plus, Navimow x450 and the Luba 3.

The main issue is the tree coverage for sure so as I understood the Luba could have some issues since it really relies on the NetRTK while the others can use VSLAM as a backup for some time. I know Luba also has Lidar but as I understood it is more for precise corrections and could get lost anyway if rtk fails, isn’t it?

Also the Luba is maybe the one with the worst traction and could get stuck in roots or branches. Lymow has for sure the best traction but unfortunately I’m quite scared of buying it now due to the overall bad experiences with the customer care… I’d love to wait one year and see how it goes, but since I need it now do you confirm that the Navimow x450 bought from a local dealer could be a good option?

I don’t care a lot about the zero-turn system for damaging the lawn because as you see is kind of a country yard, but it seems to perform well in turning on steep hills.

Also since there are many trees (I think more then 70) you think I should no-go-zone all of them or some of this mowers can handle the obstacle avoidance better than other and just let it go?

I also texted lymow for some technical informations, I will share here some good to know features that are hard to find online.

Thanks in advance!
