Thanks for making this. I'm in the US and just took delivery of a Luba 2, and wanted to understand more on the satellite side of things before I placed the rtk receiver permanent

Well done good precise video. I live in France and this will help a lot.

I am following your website for a few years. Now the content on the KZfaq channel as well. Really top notch. I couldn’t buy from you previously because you didn’t have installation service in Melbourne. With the coming of diy wire free mowers, I will be buying from you going forward. Really impressed with your knowledge and service. You will be big.

Hi all, before someone points it out, just want to acknowledge myself that I did neglect to mention the Japanese and Indian GNSS systems. The Japanese system QZSS is very relevant to Australia but the Indian system not so much with its current satellites.

If I place my RTK close to my Starlink satellite, will it disturb the signal for my RTK and vice versa?

@zeddytd 22 күн бұрын

great informative video thanks for sharing. I have a question, when looking at the satellites in the augmented view should we only have GPS satellites selected or does the system use some others. I am in UK in case that makes a difference. tia

All robot mowers I know of use, GPS, Galileo, BeiDou and GLONASS. So turn all of these on. I usually exclude 15deg from the horizon as well and not many robot mowers on the ground are going to see that close to the horizon.

So between a Landroid with ACS and the Luba 2, which do you think is a better package in the end for a diverse garden? Trees, flowers, etc.

@robotlawnmowersaustralia7913 26 күн бұрын

If you have narrow areas less than1.5mt wide then Iwould go for the wired landroid models for sure. If the areas all have fairly wide spaces more then 1.5mt then the Luba would work great assuming you have open skys above.

Great article, thank you for explaining. Only recommendation I have is to put a link to the app you mentioned. (I went through again and found it).

@martinedelius Ай бұрын

Maybe you can post a link to the app? ;)

Thank you for the video. Does the base station/antenna and the charging station need to be on the same spot?

@juge3192 Ай бұрын

No.

@robotlawnmowersaustralia7913 26 күн бұрын

RTK Base antenna can be anywhere as long as the communication signal between the robot and the antenna are within range. Segway navimow is around 100mt, Luba can reach around 200mt and Husqvarna around 300-400mt. Segway is also the only robotmower tht requires the Antenna to be plugged into the charging station, so it is limited by the amount of cable you have for the antenna. Other than that the charging stations have no connectivity with the RTK Base Antennas.

@sy73326 21 күн бұрын

Would installing a second base help in dead spots. And would the company have to change its software?

@robotlawnmowersaustralia7913 19 күн бұрын

No, additional base antennas do not help as long as the antenna you have is located in an open location and can see 160deg view of the sky.

@trplay1 3 ай бұрын

I am seeing owners who are claiming the Lubs RTK system can have the base set up in the attic. This is contrary to everything the experts advise. What are your thoughts?

@robotlawnmowersaustralia7913 26 күн бұрын

We can't do that here in australia, as our roof materials are either metal or thick concrete tiles. I think if your roof is thin enought it might be worth trying, but it will definately reduce the acuracy of the robot.

@alexsenderosatela1405 2 ай бұрын

Im thinking about buying newer model, however, the rtk has a solar panel at the top of it. I simply dont how does it work, does it need a wire constantly conected to the electric current? What happends if there's no sun and the rtk battery runs out.

@robotlawnmowersaustralia7913 26 күн бұрын

Yes Luba 2 has a solar panel coming that willcharge internal batteries and power the RTK base antenna. The battery will last around 10 days and charge in only a few hours of sun light, so hopefully there are very few occassions where someones antenna turns off. If the antenna turns off the robot will not work.

@maximmono1 Ай бұрын

So you are not expert? Huh. You are pro man. I deal with Rtk and Nrip on daily bases for slightly different purpose but must tell you know this stuff very very well. Question? Can these Gnss modules receive Rtk via Internet instead radio signal from base? I mean are they capably using SIM card or WiFi to connect to NTRIP Casters via port 2101?

@robotlawnmowersaustralia7913 26 күн бұрын

Some robots now have GSM capabilities to recive the RTK correctoin data. Luba 2 has its own stand alone sytem that allows the RTK antenna to transmit via WiFi connection and the robot can receive this via GSM 4G. Range is upto 5km before the accuracy is affected too much. Kress run the same type of system but can transmitt upto 15km from the dealer mounted RTK base antenna.

@@robotlawnmowersaustralia7913 Thanks for clarification, RTK via Internet indeed loose accuracy over distance but for lawnmore 20 mm precision is more than enough,
