Remote-Controlled and Autonomous Robotic Mowers That Don't Know How to Quit.
RC Mowers builds remote-controlled and autonomous commercial mowers for the terrain that breaks conventional equipment and the labor math that breaks budgets. REAPER™ (formerly the R Series) takes on the 50° slopes, ditches, and ponds nobody should touch by hand, with the operator up to 1,000 feet away. RECONX™, our next-generation autonomous mowing crew, puts one operator on up to 3 machines, eats the big acres, and starts at $39,986. Engineered near Green Bay, Wisconsin and Made in America.

THE REAPER
(FORMERLY R-SERIES)
REMOTE-OPERATED SLOPE MOWER
STOP BURNING 40 MAN-HOURS ON A 2-HOUR MACHINE JOB.
Made in America, and powered by a Vanguard® Big Block™ EFI engine (40 hp on the REAPER 60, 37 hp on the REAPER 52), both REAPER models chew through terrain that stops conventional equipment cold: 10-foot grass, heavy brush, 2-inch trees, waterlogged ditch banks, and 50° slopes in any direction. Heavy-duty, excavator-style tracks put just 2.3–2.4 psi on the ground, and the operator stays up to 1,000 feet away, dry, upright, and out of harm's way. It cuts equally well going forward or in reverse, so nobody tears up turf just to turn around. Where other machines quit, REAPER keeps going.
One operator. One machine.
SEE IT WORK
REAPER was built for the jobs that eat time, burn out crews, and keep you up at night. These aren't edge cases. They're the whole point.
THE WORK NOBODY SHOULD DO BY HAND.
- Slopes too steep for ride-ons; way too steep for zero-turns
- 10-foot grass, heavy brush, and 2-inch trees the rest of your fleet pretends not to see
- Jobs you're declining, subbing out, or quietly avoiding
- Wet ground, soft soil, and ditch banks that swallow wheeled equipment whole
- One machine. Four seasons. Zero excuses to park it.
ACCESSORIES
FOR THE SEASONS
REAPER doesn't go back to the yard when mowing season ends. Other slope mowers hibernate in October. Accessories for spraying, soil work, snow and ice, fire mitigation, and jobsite support let one machine earn across four seasons, on ground most equipment can't reach. One machine. More ways to work.
- Broadcast Sprayer (herbicide, fertilizer, brine, fire mitigation)
- 4-Way Articulating Snow Plow
- Salt Spreader
- 3-Point Hitch
- Soil Cultivator
- Winch Kit (up to 4,500 lbs of pull)
- LED Light Kit
- Tool Rack + Chainsaw Mount
- Can Carrier Mount (fire pump, water, or fuel)
- Secondary Fire Extinguisher Mount
Meet RECONX™
One operator. Up to three autonomous mowers.
RECONX is RC Mowers' next-generation commercial autonomous mower, rebuilt from the ground up on years of first-generation AMR field experience. Autonomy isn't bolted on. It's built in. One trained operator can run up to 3 machines at once, each knocking out about 5 acres an hour, so your mowing capacity grows and your labor cost doesn't.
- Under the hood: a 40-hp Vanguard® Big Block™ EFI engine and a 14-gallon tank for all-day runtime
- On the ground: a 60" or 72" deck and standard cutting heights of 1.5-5"; optional CutShift™ customized cutting heights from 3.5 to 7 inches
- In your hands: a 10.1-inch touchscreen and a dedicated mobile app - it’s an autonomous mowing crew, not just another mower.
Same autonomy. Fewer zeros at a starting cost of $39,986. While the machines mow, your people handle the trimming and detail work that actually needs a human.
RECONX is right for you if:
- You mow large, flat-to-low rolling acreage on a recurring schedule
- Your problem is acres, labor cost, or a crew that's already maxed out
- You're ready to cut the cord on contracted mowing crews
- Your properties include campuses, commercial sites, airports, parks, sports complexes, solar fields, highways, or military bases
SEE IT WORK
Don’t take our word for it. Watch our machines in action.
- Large, open acreage, from turf to tall grass
- Saved, repeatable mow plans and deck heights
- 10.1-inch touchscreen and iOS/Android app

Who We Work With
RC Mowers solves the problems of brutal terrain, big acreage, and labor shortages with REAPER and RECONX. Here's who calls us, and why.
| Who You Are | Your Problem | What Changes |
|---|---|---|
| Municipalities & Government, DOT, Public Works, DNR | Highway embankments, drainage channels, and steep right-of-way that exceed safe limits but still have to get mowed |
With REAPER, the operator stays off the slope and up to 1,000 ft away. Then it plows sidewalks all winter.
|
| Landscape Contractors, Commercial Grounds, LCOs | Slope and retention pond contracts you decline or sub out: high-margin work you can't staff safely; large acres on repeat |
Bid the work your competitors walk away from with the REAPER. Operate at max productivity with the RECONX.
|
| Facilities Managers, Campuses, Commercial Properties, Airports, Utility Corridors | Recurring mowing that eats crew hours every week: predictable work that shouldn't need this many people |

A certified dealer near you
Every RC Mowers dealer is trained and certified on the product lines they carry. Our dealers don't oversell this. They keep it in stock. Find one near you for a demo on your terrain, help choosing the right model and accessories, or ongoing parts and service support. RECONX dealers carry additional certification for autonomous system setup, so when you call, you're talking to someone who has actually run the machine, not someone who skimmed the manual in the parking lot.

American Built & Backed
Mow like you mean it.
We build mowers. We’re not subtle about it. Most manufacturers ship you a machine, a manual, and a “good luck.” That’s not how we do business. Every REAPER and RECONX is sold and serviced through a nationwide network of authorized dealers who know these machines, backed by a Green Bay team that treats you like a name, not a ticket number.
72-Hour Shipping for Most Parts
Need a part? Call Green Bay, not a time zone. Most parts for both REAPER and RECONX ship within 72 hours. The same team that designed and built your machine keeps it running, with easy ordering and factory-direct support.
Made in the U.S.A.
Not from a shipping container. Designed, engineered, manufactured, and supported stateside. American built. American backed. We're not the biggest. We're the one they're watching.
Support you count on
A nationwide network of authorized dealers puts sales, training, and service close to home. Behind both mowers is the RC Mowers team near Green Bay, which has your back for as long as you own the machine.
WHICHEVER MACHINE THAT MEANS.
FILL OUT THE FORM.
Fill out the form. An RC Mowers sales representative or certified dealer will contact you. You describe the site and the problem, they bring the right machine (REAPER, RECONX, or both), and you watch it work your worst ground. No commitment required.
Built for commercial and professional applications, RC Mowers machines are premium, commercial-grade equipment. RECONX starts at $39,986 with the REAPER at $40,000 for used machines.
From The Field
“We documented over 90% reduction in crew hours on retention pond and embankment jobs. The machine goes where we’d never send people. ROI inside a few months.”
Operations Director, major commercial landscape contractor
“Five crew members trimming all day, replaced by one R Series operator in under two hours. We got to full ROI well inside one season.”
