This can be accomplished by recycling any \"outdated\" electric mower you can find, I found a suitable [24v Worx mower](https://www.worx.com/24v-cordless-lawn-mower-wg782.html) which someone was throwing out. Eventually, I would like to construct a complete build for Lawndon that is reproducable by anyone with a 3d printer.\n\nThe main idea is to have a high torque, low power mower to be efficient and powerful enough to climb hills. In order to acheive this I used 2 [360KV brushless motors](https://www.rctimer.com/rctimer-5010-360kv-multicopter-brushless-motor-p0233.html) to power a 56:1 gearbox that is attached to tracks. The gears and tracks are based on [Rctestflight's Snowcat design](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4308626).\n\n## Install\n\n\u003e Note: You will need to have the [`arduino-cli` installed](https://arduino.github.io/arduino-cli/0.19/installation/).\n\nCurrently the only build that is supported is for the [Arduino Mega 2560](https://store.arduino.cc/products/arduino-mega-2560-rev3) or it's [FQBN](https://arduino.github.io/arduino-cli/0.19/commands/arduino-cli_board_listall/): `arduino:avr:mega`.\n\nYou download and extract the [latest release](https://github.com/jordojordo/lawndon-lite/releases), then install the binaries:\n\n```sh\nwget https://github.com/jordojordo/lawndon-lite/releases/download/0.1.0/arduino.avr.mega.tar.gz\n\nmkdir build\ntar -xcvf arduino.avr.mega.tar.gz -C build\n\narduino-cli upload --input-dir build\n```\n\n\u003e Note: For more detailed instructions on uploading to a board follow the [arduino-cli documentation](https://arduino.github.io/arduino-cli/0.19/commands/arduino-cli_upload/).\n\n## Build\n\nTo build, first determine your board's [FQBN](https://arduino.github.io/arduino-cli/0.19/commands/arduino-cli_board_listall/). Then clone the directory, install the libraries, and compile:\n\n```sh\narduino-cli lib install IBusBM Servo\narduino-cli compile -b \u003cFQBN\u003e -e --libraries \"~/Arduino/libraries/IBusBM,~/Arduino/libraries/Servo\" ./lawndon/\n```\n\n## Configuration\n \nRefer to the [Wiki](https://github.com/jordojordo/lawndon-lite/wiki) for prerequisites, required materials, and configuration instructions.\n\n## Videos\n\nI'll continually update the [Videos section](https://github.com/jordojordo/lawndon-lite/wiki/Videos) of the Wiki to document the current progress of Lawndon.\n\n## TODO\n\n- Design printable chassis\n- Configure RC reciever to be agnostic\n- Create proper wire routing scheme","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjordojordo%2Flawndon","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fjordojordo%2Flawndon","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjordojordo%2Flawndon/lists"}
