I am a long time Tapo user and really like the cameras. I have a c120 watching my parked vehicle in the driveway and it works pretty well. I am tempted to swap out to a C560 for the 4k option. My goal would be to have better image quality to zoom in on details in the event of an auto break in etc.

I know on paper the 4k should be better, but how is it in practice? I seem to find very few 4k reviews and a few mentions of it not being noticeably better.

This will be my first mowing year with the Navimow. I am in the Southern US, hot and humid. I do not have irrigation on my bermuda lawn, so I am a bit hesitant to mow it super low as many suggest. The grass is still mostly dormant right now so I it mowed at 1.2" to scalp before green up.

I am thinking maybe a mow height of 1.6" or 1.8" might be the sweet spot of keeping the grass tight while long enough to prolong drying out between rains?

I am still dealing with my X350 getting somewhat "stuck" for a while each mow. It seems to find a spot in the yard and just stop - and then spend some time making small movements in that area. It will eventually move on, and often do the same behavior again in another spot. The areas are not always the same. It seems to eventually get over itself and finish the zone, but it spends a lot of time and battery doing this.

I realize dormant grass or weeds can trick the camera, so I have vision fence disabled. Is this normal? Currently on NRTK but RTK seems to not make a difference.

Side note - has anyone had trouble mowing simple weeds like dandelion? With my cut height at 1.2" and manually driving out and back over the weeds it does not seem to cut them unless I essentially park the mower on top for a few seconds.
