Autopilot system payback summary
The Trimble® AgGPS® Autopilot™ automated guidance system will automatically steer your vehicle at one inch repeatability from plant to harvest in any field pattern.
Trimble's AgGPS Autopilot guidance system extends your operating hours so you can work when you need to, maximize the precision of your rows, and even decreases fuel and input costs.
Simple to use
The Autopilot system connects to your vehicle’s power steering system, then using the in-cab display you can select from straight, curve, pivot, and headland field patterns and view the system operating. Once the Autopilot system lines up the vehicle at the beginning of a row, the automated steering guides the vehicle smoothly while the display provides visual feedback on your course—it’s that simple.
Works on all terrain
T3™ terrain compensation technology ensures the AgGPS Autopilot system works on slopes and rough terrain. Inertial measurement technology corrects for roll, pitch, and yaw to insure you are where you want to be, even in the roughest ground conditions.
