Here we go. New unexpected 3.11.0 behavior. It does a 90 degree rotation while sitting on the dock before starting every workplan. This one took out the metal poles for the doghouse cover that’s been on all summer. $70 cover is now trashed. You can’t make this up. See video.

Yuck.
Do you happen to know if the poles contacted the bumper?
Known issue! We are working on it now.
Mine did the same thing yesterday except after he 90° turn it launched sideways rather than exiting straight. Wild.
I can’t see how the bumper wouldn’t have hit the poles, but I wasn’t watching when it happened. I came out to a mangled mess of poles and tarp. But, it was out cutting the grass care free like nothing had happened, so I had that going for me. I liken it to coming home to find your dog ate your couch and is now sleeping on the floor enjoying his day 
I can’t wait to hear what edge case is causing this behavior. It was getting dark when I discovered it, so I haven’t played with things yet. I do have a no vision zone there, so it would enter the dog house without detecting it as an object.
I saw that once as well. Do you have any special zones at your dock?
This is potentially dangerous behavior. Would have been nice if this “known issue” had been shared. I could have removed the shelter. Lots of us have some type of enclosure that’s about to get eaten.
Agree 1000%. We need to be notified when bugs like this have been identified.
The ‘known issue’ that caused Yarbos to drain their batteries to 0% has the potential to cause battery damage. We should have been notified.
This new undocking issue is important due to the potential for damaging property upon undocking.
Agreed. Mine tired sooooo hard to hit the house.
My Yarbo lives under one of those large dog houses too.
It’s probably good that I hadn’t received the update yet. Cause most likely it would have destroyed mine too. Now that I know about the bug, I can act accordingly.
“Known issue! We are working on it now.”
Is it so hard to drop a note in the forum for folks to be able to take some appropriate RE-action to your “known issue” bugs? If you do that, it will save a lot of apologizing later…

same problem.I noticed that the LED is flashing blue…shouldn’t it be green?
I’ve seen it flash both blue and green. As long as the app shows it’s charging there shouldn’t be an issue.
For me, flashing blue has always been charging.
We understand that clearer communication about known issues is needed, and we agree that providing timely information would help everyone take appropriate action. We’re working on improving this and will include the known issues in the FAQ update that will be released soon. Thank you for pointing this out.
Please add the known issues to every and all posts, emails, and any other place you post a firmware update. No sugar coating or hiding the issues, clear and transparent communications builds trust no matter if good or bad news.
