So I’ve only just started using my Yarbo (like a couple days) but I ran into an issue yesterday during my first time mowing that it misidentified some obstacles in my yard and as a result kind of got itself a little trapped and as a result, tore up a portion of my yard going round in circles.
Basically, there’s an area with a number of small trees that are spaced roughly 4-5 feet apart and the rover was seeing the trees and the gaps between them as solid walls. There were also a couple of places where on one pass it though there was a massive obstacle in the way (leaves I’m guessing) and then on the second pass, erased it off the map.
Could we get a button to “clear” the obstacle data from the map to may the rover “take a fresh pass” at an area, or even better, a “pen” or “eraser” tool that we could go to the map and selectively remove obstacle data from the map?
Also as a second suggestion, I noticed when it got “trapped” the rover was almost exclusively trying to turn to the right to get out of the area and also never tried to back out of the area. Me thinks the navigation algorithm needs a little work. I wish I’d thought to take a screenshot of what the map looked like, but I didn’t and now I know better…
And knowing is half the battle. ![]()
