AURA-R2 reviews: what independent testers found
Our own summaries of each review. Follow the link for the reviewer's full words.
Cuts well and looks good, but erratic obstacle detection and a high price make it hard to leave unsupervised.
- Premium design
- Mostly strong navigation
- Neat parallel stripes
- Unpredictable obstacle avoidance
- Needs a physical RTK station; no auto-mapping
- Pricey, and the app needs work
