    I don't know anything about that perticular mower but having seen a quadx demonstration
    I would be more inclined to spend money on a tractor flail mower.
    I got a 6 foot Kubota flail mower for 900 Euros and my only complaint is I didn't spend more and get a wider mower and spend less time going around the field

    Sorry just read your not asking after tractor implements
    The wildcut by quadx or that flail mower should be fine to cut rushes heather long grass etc. If you had the time but I would think it would be slow going.

    There's two options, slow going or no going.

    I would have thought that the flail mower would be the best mower to hit a stone with as it might break a flail if you were unlucky but its better than a bed on a disc mower or a gearbox on a topper .

    I could be wrong but i think my mate sent one back to the dealer lately after the gearbox in his flail mower gave up the ghost after hitting a stone . I don't think the smaller ones are really fit for stronger stuff

    Grand for light light stuff forget at anything heavy no matter how slow you go.
    And if you miss a spot this year you'll need a tractor mower next year.
