I believe this would best be described as hybrid electric. I removed the old manual self propel gearbox and driveshafts and used the empty pulley on the engine's output shaft to drive a 24V tractor alternator. I designed a mount for it in Fusion to align the pulleys with each other while allowing me to adjust the belt tension. 3D printed in ASA with a .8 nozzle, it barely fit on the H2D build plate.

The motors are 24v 75 rpm wheelchair motors driven by a Cytron 30 amp dual motor controller hooked up to a basic 6 channel flysky receiver. The main controls of the mower are still handled physically but I may add some rc controls for the starter and PTO.
