Hi Paul,

My experience with curves while testing EZ Steer this spring was that a curve was transformed to a broken arc with straight lines. I have the feeling that Trimble has some room for improvement there. But I have the very strong feeling that the competition (cultiva, JD) as far as non hydraulic assistance is concerned isn't better either.
To do a good job in curves anyway, I think you need a high frequency receiver (5 Hz or better 10 Hz) so as to have as many reference points as possible, and an assistance with enough inbound memory to store those points.

EZ Steer does an excellent job with AB lines and is a serious competitor to much more expensive systems ... there. But it has limitations, and I think one of those limitations is curves. May be we are expecting too much too soon, especially once one has experienced the excellency of this system on parallel AB lines
