JD 6R 145. I successfully set up a random curve along the edge of a field and it will steer itself along that path. But when I move over to make another pass, I get the message that autotrac has disengage due to being too far off track. I can run straight lines with no problem. What's different about trying to follow a random curve?

I know nothing about the software but thinking of the problem mathematically I wonder if it has something to do with it being a smaller radius?

Well I finally found some info online and I think I have it figured out, but I'll have to try. Looks like I should be using A-B Curve instead of Adaptive Curve

I believe you are correct on the A-B curve since that should follow the path you created. Have only used that function once though so memory could be wrong once again.
