Hello Folks

I'm wondering if there is a way of adding a "steer by wire" or joystick steering to compact tractors. There seem to be kits available from a couple of manufacturers (Fendt and Case are two I've found) but they appear to be aimed at big machines. It's a difficult Google search due to "interference " from loader kits.

Thanks
Foster

Sounds like an interesting project, I will be following. Sorry I can't be much help. The first thing I think of with joystick steering is Country Clipper ZTR mowers. I wonder if you could buy any parts from them to adapt to your project?
