Currently it works in forward mode only.

I know this has been brought up several times and they are working on it. The other thing is the blower does not fully get to blowing power before moving so beginning sections of a row are being missed. Also something they are working on.

Thank you for your suggestion! We want to let you know that we are actively working on developing the blowing backward feature. If everything goes as planned, we expect to include it in release 7. We truly appreciate your understanding and patience!

It will be interesting to see the release with that change. It was so inefficient I just took over and manually ran it myself. I had it hit my driveway and noted it took the same path as the snow blower. As I am trying to blow leaves in a completely different direction (towards the road this time) it is hard to imagine that is an efficient route. The number of turns it took with the blower off, or just to turn on for 2 feet was mind blowing.
The implementation of the hardware was great, the way the software ran was disappointing at this point.
Right now the development focus and resources are focused on the mower and previously it was for the snow blower. The leaf blower will get a lot of development cycles closer to the fall season, I am sure. They are still actively working on it, but I think it’s currently for safety features.

Makes sense. For those of us with a couple feet of snow on the ground but driveways in need of the spring cleanup it’s our only choice
