Wheelman Flex WAAS + HP (High Precision) Ready is our best solution for every operation you might perform with autosteering!
No data plan required
No internet connection required
No Unlock Required
For High Precision accuracy (3,4,or 12-month subscription required)
Uses built-in Wheelman Wi-Fi while operating
Every Wheelman Flex WAAS + HP Ready system ships with the incredibly capable HPX-200 antenna! With WAAS accuracy enabled right out of the box, this means no subscriptions, no data plans, and no internet connections are required to get started.
When your operation requires even greater precision, the HPX-200 is built to scale. By adding an optional HPX-10 correction service subscription (available in 3, 4, or 12-month terms), the system can achieve up to 1.6 inches pass-to-pass accuracy, helping reduce overlap, improve consistency, and maximize efficiency.
The result is more precise field work, less operator fatigue, and lower operating costs through reduced fuel, labor, and input waste.
Wheelman Flex WAAS + HP Ready works with both new and used equipment at a fraction of the cost of comparable autosteering systems. Add a Flex Kit and easily move the system between machines: remove it from one steering wheel, install it on the next, calibrate using the Whirl App, and you’re ready to go.
Everything you need to get started is included. No experience required. Order online, install quickly, and calibrate in minutes.
Precision levels are stated in inches of cross-track error as reported and logged by the system while following an A-B guidance line at a speed between 3 and 10 mph under ideal conditions with a well-maintained, standard tractor. This precision level is a depiction of the ability of the system to steer to a guidance line and does not reflect either the absolute accuracy of the position or pass-to-pass accuracy that will vary due to time delay between passes.

Minimum And Maximum Speeds
You are ultimately responsible for the safe operation of your machine. Your Wheelman system will disengage autosteering under the following speeds, as detected by the GPS receiver:
- Minimum speed of 1.0 miles/h (1.6 km/h) for non-RTK GNSS
- Maximum speed of 12.4 miles/h (20.0 km/h) for non-RTK GNSS
- Autosteering Sensitivity settings will also limit how fast your tractor can autosteer. The Sensitivity value is normally set around 7, but different vehicles with different implements may require a different value. If going too fast, Wheelman will disengage autosteering, per the following table.
