[QUOTE="E_B, post: 8162651, member: 5035"] Back in the winter I bought a FJD RTK retro fit kit and finally got round to installing it recently. Got a chance to use it the other day drilling maize into rye stubble and it's awesome. Not really a GPS expert so wanted something simple and modular, no point paying for functions that I'm never going to use. But looking forward to going round the farm after harvest, mapping field boundaries and setting up A B lines ready for Autumn drilling. I seem to end up doing a lot of drilling in the dark so this will be helpful, and I was a bit surprised how much it sped up drilling without doing three point turns on the headlands. Might save a bit of compaction in a wet time. Bought the kit off [USER=163353]@ERH Services Ltd[/USER] who I can't complain about, back up has been really good and I wouldn't want to try the more advanced stuff that the kit can do like U turns without some help and advice to get going. Always held off on GPS but glad I made this investment. Just don't let your dad drive into low buildings with it on 😭🙈😤 [ATTACH type="full"]1039374[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]1039375[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]1039376[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
