Subject: RE: John Deere Turn Automation



NEND

Thanks for taking time to post the pictures, I appreciate it. I had mine turning reasonably good yesterday, even on 88’ of headland. I will try turning up the aggressiveness today. The only setting of yours I’d question is the turn angle. If you allow that tractor to turn 90° to the hitch on a DB44, you are going to have a bad day. With your minimum turn radius set to half the planter width, it probably won’t ever turn short enough to come close to 90°, but I wouldn’t want to chance it, I have mine set at 60°. Probably could be slightly tighter, but I don’t want to give it the freedom to turn the duals into the drag links on the planter.
In the end, I’m hearing you so you’re satisfied with a U shaped turn, maybe with your settings I can get closer to that. I just don’t like how the tractor has to overcompensate at the end of my turns to get the planter lined up. A slight light bulb shape (like it shows you’re supposed to be able to do with the Turn Aggressiveness setting) would be smoother.
