Heres another cool project that deserves some recognition. I think everyone should own one of these lawnmowers. People will start enjoying mowing their lawns or even offer to mow their friends and neighbors lawns. If I had one you would see me sitting on a comfortable chair drinking a nice cold beer while mowing my lawn. A great and fun way to get the chores done. =)

Don’t worry with a little know how you can build your own. You can find a complete guide here:

But Heed his warning:

DISCLAIMER - THE METHODS OF CONTROLLING AN UNMANNED VEHICLE DETAILED BELOW ARE POTENTIALLY LETHAL. YOU CAN KILL SOMEONE, AN ANIMAL OR A ROSE GARDEN IF YOU ARE NOT CAREFUL. I ACCEPT NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOSS OF LIFE, BEER PRIVILEGES OR SEX FOR CONSEQUENCES THAT ARE BEYOND MY CONTROL. IF YOU DECIDE TO BUILD A MOWER LIKE MINE YOU DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK. BY BUILDING THE PROJECTS STATED BELOW YOU ARE ACKNOWLEDGING THAT IT IS ONLY YOUR FAULT IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG.

I simply love his Introduction:

“Laziness is the Mother of Invention”

So you might ask yourself “Why build an RC Mower?“. Why not? Who likes mowing the lawn?

Whoever answered “I do!” needs a swift kick in the happy-sacks.

Next to actually riding the lawn mower as you mow, what could be more fun than sitting on the porch, beer in one hand, radio transmitter in the other, mowing away merrily?

Actually, if you strapped a seat onto this one, you COULD ride it!)
