North Central Iowa | Of course, depends on how much you want to spend. A used ez guide 500 and ez boom will give you light bar guidance and automatic sprayer boom control. Rate and section control. Should drop in replace the raven controller.
An ez guide 500 can then have an ez steer added for assisted steering (mounts to steering column) or a nav for integrated steering (ties into steering hydraulics). While setup can probably be had for under $5000 or even $4,000, with main difference being whether used ez guide 500 is unlocked already for huger accuracy gps signals (Omni star and/or rtk).
Newer Trimble systems quit using the ez boom for sprayer control and went to the field iq, which is more flexible but also has more/different components for particular applications. Relatively modern Ag leader systems are like that as well.
The ez guide 500s haven’t been made in awhile, but still work well for what they were intended for. | |
