In twenty years of leaf blowing I have never managed to move a small light object in a 'S' shape as per [0] or drag a hand saw as per [1]

- krisoft 2y agoAs I wrote it is not really a leafblower. The jet is much more concentrated. > I have never managed to move a small light object in a 'S' shape Me neither. But I have moved around objects with a water jet (when messing around with a garden hose). Never had an air jet fast and powerful enough to do the trick so that's the closest analogy I have. It's not that hard? Never tried an S shape but the basic theory with the water hose is that you aim at a point you want to move the object away from. So if you want to move something towards A you aim the hose the point opposite of A. And then you feel out how close you need to move the aim point to the object to start it moving at the right pace but far enough to keep it controlled. The controller in the videos seem to do the same.
