Thinking out loud here...seems like someone could make a remote control kit for a PT that lets you drive the machine from a safe distance / location. That way you can mow the slopes with less pucker factor - or up to the full capability of the machine. Even with the mechanical limitations of things like engine oiling, lots of folks aren't willing to take that wild a ride while onboard. On the smaller machines like the PT-425 the operator weight certainly raises the center of gravity - and THAT isn't a good thing for slope operation either...you could mount the remote components pretty low too...
Of course, I can also imagine a person standing at the bottom of the hill while remote controlling the PT...then the PT comes rolling downhill at them with the mower flailing wildly...
