Horsch Avatar One Year Review

[therodian]

As a German it makes me really happy to see a Fendt with a Horsch.

[Ardvandongen]

Question, Why a Avatar and not the Pronto? ( I think I know that answer )

[Hazlewoodj]

Brian, I work for a UK Horsch distributor and all of the issues you have mentioned have been changed in the late 2022/ 2023 model, total redesign of the software (not retrofittable to yours unfortunately), including renaming of tanks, individual row control instead of sections if you’re happy to pay for it, and a change in how the outer support wheels behave. You mention the one metering system not registering a blockage, do you not get a motor speed warning? Too slow or too higher voltage? I’ve yet to come across this problem, but glad you are enjoying the Horsch product. 👍🏼

We have a Deere air drill to plant wheat for cattle to graze in the winter. It’s the same way, you gotta weigh the seed. Swath control is fine, but like yours it’s a lot of trial and error to get it close so the rule of thumb don’t start by the road where the neighbors can see 🤣 we put out fertilizer with ours and it’s not the air drill with the cart it’s the one with the tanks on the bar.

Brian are you happy with the dealer support? I remember there were concerns in the beginning.

Merry Christmas early to the entire Brown family

Nice review, German quality has proofed it self already, stay safe you all greetings from a Dutch dairyfarmer

On our john deere 1990 ccs air seeder, we retrofitted the meter rolls with electric drive intellidrive units. This system gives us 12 sections instead of two and is capable of prescription seeding. It's a bit wide, but a fantastic machine otherwise. (The 12 sections come out to just over 3ft per section on a 40ft drill

I know this video came out after you were in fargo nd. 20 miles to the west of fargo is where that air seeder was built in Mapleton nd. To bad the weather was so crappy you could have went and checked that out

[concernedpatriot]

Brian, I would put a strong flat magnet 🧲 on that box lid to keep the lid from falling into your field !?

[johnschuerman]

I looked at one at the farm show in Louisville. Thought it was a neat machine. How well does it flex/ follow the ground contour on rolling and terraced fields?

[carsons]

If they made an update for those wing wheels to swivel like casters that would be golden and stop the dirt mounding problems. Seem like a solid nice unit.

[BobbyP-lddh]

Very clean, neat and simple……thanks for the review!

[luisnunes]

Hello! Does the 10" spacing affect the wheat's yield?

[freemanhochstetler]

The outside tires should be on a swivel. Can’t believe they didn’t do that.

[АндрейЕрёмин-ие]

Отличная не убиваемая машина, проблема фермеров в том, что некоторые не знают как правильно производить регулировки и обслуживание

[edniemyjski]

what was the price difference between that seeder compared to a 16row ccs planter and merry christmas to your family.

[ashlandgunclub]

Simple is generally more reliable and cheaper to fix or maintain.

[gregbromley]

I thought for sure Brian, your interview of those fendt engineers a few years back a (i think?) The farm progress show, was foreshadowing the purchase of a fendt seeder or planter. I am glad this machine has met or exceeded your expectations.

[woodt]

I am sure that tractor pulls it like it’s not there. But does it pull hard?
