2016 at RWG Contracts

thanks I meant more the arrangement than the individual items, you go on 1 farm and use the system and think this was well thought out then go on another and spot the cock ups for example we rented a 45ft x 60 building split into 3 20ft wide pens but it had 15ft gates so they didn't meet to lock cattle back onto bedding = baler band + hurdles nightmare!!!
best thing to do before deciding on a shed layout is to view a few others which are highly recommended by others, I was cheating thinking you would have seen a lot of setups.

Yeah no what you mean. That 150 x45 beef shed was well thought out. All the gates where made so they all closed back and latched and you could move individual pens to race ect

Thanks

That's what I've looking at, the P3 standard is under £500 yet the P4 is about £1k but way more features.
What would you recommend or is that a stupid question[emoji23]?
Who did you buy it from?

I got a phantom 3 standard from amazon on a warehouse special deal for £320, it does everything I want and not crazy money if it goes wrong. It actually did start playing up at a few weeks old, amazon were good to deal with and i've ended up with 2 complete drones for a total outlay of £460

It's DJI with their endless updates which make it stop working.

After each update make sure you check the thing works before heading out to use it, caught out twice with daft changes to improve it and then killing it dead.

rough sketch of my building, its 52ft x 120ft but ive drawn 52x60 I have tried to show how my gate hinges work so my gates can fold out of the way when running cattle off the bedding don't have a gate to run around (pain in arse when last 1 goes wrong side so avoided it with my design)
the conc panels are 2x 1m high 100mm the back 1s are clipped to columns as normal the internal 1s are supported by 100mm box section so smooth both sides. (cheaper than 1 panel + steelwork) any comments appreciated, I will add photos of shed full if I remember/ people want me to.
