this projects goals are far more sustainable than i assumed, so as an old man im a bit embarrassed at my post. imo its likely an inevitability in scope given climate change that this robot becomes a regular part of harvest. at this scale the tractors allowed to be slower, like a second gen mahindra tiller (or slower) but its also allowed to do a lot more. dont discount the wind though! many farms see a lot. having onboard diagnostics like a printer does might be nice too...quick things like spot weld repairs?

Thank you and it’s all good! I appreciate your opinions here and it’s good to challenge our assumptions. I’m glad they stand up to your scrutiny! That means a lot to me. Yeah we may need to add gaps to the solar panels so there’s less surface for wind to grab, and we’ll have to make sure they’re secured nice and tight! I hope we get some customers in windy areas to test and give us feedback too. It’s all about community involvement here. Diagnostics would be great and we do have some of that rolled in to the software now. I’m sure there’s room for more. We are MIG welding the new frames and they should be quick enough to do in the field if needed!
