Very hard to follow curved guidance on BB Advance in my experience as it only calaculates it slightly ahead of you. If it showed the whole line in front of you it would be easier.
Like others I resort to forcing a straight line even if no field edges are straight
One of the things tempting me back to Trimble.
I'm quite disappointed with BlackBox really. I have asked them at 3 shows now to price adding steering assist and not heard a thing.Have you had any feedback as to why BB are like this along with other issues from patchwork. Just wondered because I tried and got nowhere: it is what is is.
When I've enquired of our dealer about upgrading to evolution I've been given a vague, "it's very expensive", and essentially fobbed off. Has anyone got a running BB with auto steer or is it a myth?
Just buy a Trimble EZ Guide and EZ Steer motor, it just works and they are cheap secondhand
How much did you get kitted up for in the end?
I can't remember exactly now, I think about 1500. Just kitting another tractor out with 500 screen, EZ Steer and EZ Boom to do sprayer sections auto on / off and i think it can be done for around £2000
Is your knight sprayer compatible with ez boom?

None of this is very encouraging; perhaps someone connected to or selling Patchwork ought to comment?I've struggled with the BBeco+ as well, set the AB line straight but by the time done another run back it moves across too close. The curve line is a joke. Just don't trust it, specially for spraying.
Had it 2 year now tried alsorts, about given up with it n wondered bout swapping it for something else.

Just get told the more expensive ones are better.None of this is very encouraging; perhaps someone connected to or selling Patchwork ought to comment?

The AB line never lines up with the area that's been worked/covered. Been bit of a waste of money really...
