You Sir, are a brilliant man for retrofitting that old tractor with open source components to give your equipment a whole new life.

You could always plot a route from the pub back to the farm.... Sorry officer, I'm not in charge of this vehicle..... hiccup.. 😏👍

This is the video I've been waiting for! Clever!!

I came across you from your base station on rtk2go, which I use as I'm local. I've basically done something similar but for surveying and drone flying for archaeology. I've thought about an RTK driven cart to carry a magnetometer, rather than walking up and down with a handheld device. Well done for getting it all working.

Well done Joe - you certainly have shown that it's not that hard to save a fortune on manufacturers GPS equipment. If any of your viewers want to use GPS without auto steer there are a few Phone Apps that give a helping hand. I used Field Navigator and Field Bee this year - helped me keep in a straight line 😹

Thanks joe great video 👍

Good for you doing this. But..... reliability, all your cables need to be supported and preferably put in conduit (or similar)to take the strain off the plugs and sockets, I am an electronics engineer and have done a few auto projects. Nearly all the faults I have had are to do with making the whole thing robust. Crack on though, it great to see you diving in and getting involved.

Good work man I’m going to it on my mower

Legend! Awesome video

Brilliant, thanks Joe. I’m not much into farming but am thinking about making an RTK auto steer boat. Great to see the younger generation farmer making the most of the tech, and putting a valve in so the older gen can still get along with it 👍

Thanks for the headsup on my video Joe.

Good vid jo just lost me after the 135 coment every thing you said after went over my head i have a international b414 🤣🤣 👍🏻👍🏻

Watch it so funny well done Joe lol

In New Zealand what you have done is called Number 8 wire solutions. You have found your own solution to a problem using the solutions of others and enhancing them,

Hi Joe. Do you have a link for blankety blank show? I didn’t see it?! 😃 Fair play to you, you’ve sorted RTK for not a silly amount of money! 👍

We farm about 540 acres of row crop, and I'm looking at implementing my own RTK. We use a Trimble system currently, but it's got some operational limitations that are hindering us.

You make it look easy lol. I'm definitely curious about building my own RTK base station though. Anything to eliminate those gd annual subscription fees.

Great video. Why don't you let the auto starer drive fully and turn on the headlands as well? 👍

Very clever, must have saved you a fortune.

Great video! I'm a but stuck on the steering valves... are you able point me in the right direction please? I'm thinking I need one valve to cut the manual steering and another to let the GPS steer left & right?

That is so cool

how is that tablet mount (plastic drum cut to size ?) connected to the cab

Hi, i currently have a JD 6430 and was hoping to make something identical to yours so I was wondering if there was a parts list ? Thank you

Very interesting, will you be tidying it up and refining it so that Andy or Em could use it, and mebbe even yr dad... (if he finally accepts how useful it is). Has anyone on the forum tried to integrate it with A.I, cameras & Lidar to create a fully autonomous tractor?

Yeah Brian tee has made an old John Deere do his rolling autonomously behind him drilling… lots more complex gettin to that stage… but totally do able with will power! 😀😀

What charger do you use for the Dell tablet?

What was the program you clicked on the tablet.?

10:24 what kind of hydraulic valve are you using?

Awesome video thanks for all the information you inspired me to try to build my own set up and to be honest I am a technophobe. I know you already have your computer all put together and programmed but it would be great if someone could post a video on putting it all together programming it And getting it working. Also, I have a lot of questions about how the GPS receives ntrip data. do I have to have an Internet connection at all times in the field? Or does it use GPS antenna to receive the correction data? If I need Internet connection, that will be a problem as I live in the backwoods of Central Missouri in the USA and we don’t have Internet in the creek bottoms, usually.

Mine gets it through mobile phone data, 3G etc… you can get it via a radio transmitter though, need one on the base station and one on the tractor 😀

YESS just the video I was hoping for . I’m going to try this on a 2010 -160case puma . How different do you think it will be to your Johndeere? I know I have a guidance button in the armrest but obviously it’s not wired to do anything .

For ease of installation I would just add a new guidance button at first… then when you get addicted, rip the armrest open and find out how to wire to the guidance button… should be very much the same. Just work out where to put your wheel angle sensor. 😀😀

I did this on a 2008 195CVX recently, worked out great! It was auto-steer ready, so I just put the AOG system into the hydraulic valve block and it worked a treat. Check my videos for more on that

JOE, do you have to pay any type of subscription service for anything? And what forums did you use to help you set it all up and gain knowledge?

Hello, i would like te build a rtk gps like you did. But i want to let it opperate my sprayer do you have suggestions for it? We have a delvano with 844 e computer. So it is not gps ready (10years old) grts and thank you

what brand and type of tablet do you use? Thinking about building one for myself and using a microsoft surface pro (2017)
