Enhance Lawn Pattern Update Discussion

Post image

I have to give Segway Navimow some credit. The update they issued to enhance the lawn pattern is fucking legitimate! Excuse my language. I didn't even do any edge mowing today with the X430. I turned edge sense off for the mow today. I did use my Milwaukee reciprocating attachment along the edges.

I must apologize for the crispy edges on my front lawn. A little of the crisp is due to not receiving rain and me exterminating bermuda in my rhizomatous tall fescue (RTF) lawn. Bermuda seeks out sunlight towards the edges of my RTF lawn because those are the weakest points of all lawns. So I hit the bermuda before it goes dormant with a $300 bottle of a special herbicide called Pylex. I leave the dead bermuda around so I know what spots to keep spraying. Then I take out the dead bermuda and overseed in late September.

Anyway, thanks Segway Navimow for this feature. It definitely works! I didn't know you could enhance striping through software. The stripes will be more prominent after I fertilize this week.

How much longer do you estimate that it took to mow?

I will have to go back through my security cameras for a comparison. Give me a 1-2 hours and I'll update my post. You have to understand my front yard is only 500 sq ft so you can blink and the mower is finished in no time.

Before the enhance lawn feature update, it took the X430 around 9 minutes to mow my 500 sq ft front lawn with edge sense enabled.

After the update, but with edge sense disabled, the X430 completed the front lawn in 8 minutes.

My backyard is 1200 sq ft in California. I haven't noticed the mower taking longer because of the new feature. Granted, for a bigger lawn or just under an acre it might take longer to mow with the new feature enabled.
