Does anyone make metal props that flow in the opposite direction so I can fly my drone upside down and mow my lawn ?

Doesn't work, ground effect aerodynamics prevent it from flying close enough and the visual positioning cameras don't work until you are above 50cm altitude so it doesn't know when it is at the right height anyway.

Get yourself a dedicated hover mower instead: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flymo

I had a tip over on landing once and the standard blades did an excellent job of cutting the grass.  Sure got my heart pounding.

And I can also confirm that the standard P4 props are perfectly adequate for dead-heading flowers on rose bushes (an accidental find).

You can stand upside down and you can imagine your drone mowing your lawn.. In other hand you can hold the UPSIDE DOWN Margarita!!!    {:4_177:}

I think it's better suited as a leaf blower than a lawn mower.

Using it as a sand blower might not be the best one of those three.

Without a mask... Of course it's a NO NO!

Im making a new lawn this year and would like to get a good mower for making stripes. I know I need a mower with rear roller, but id like to do some research into which type is best for me.
