nothing runs like a **** Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 hi just rang up to day and i cannot believe if we are going to buy any of the new siku control we have to buy new remote controlls, is this true or have i been told wrong information. i would not like to think that we have to buy a new remote after the price i forked out for my 6920s.

FB Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 not sure if the new models are infra-red like the old JD or actually radio controlled \ \ \, in which case, new controller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nothing runs like a **** Posted March 9, 2009 Author Share Posted March 9, 2009 cannot believe it myself now i may just have to fork out the whole £150 for deutz, or i way just keep my hands in pockets and get other stuff which is probably the better idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 think your right there ben, the new ones are different to the origonal jd and fendt, think thats why they are so much more expensive you can still get the older controls and individual tractors via some dealers mind, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerrabbit Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 So does that mean the new tractors can't be used with the old controler then? You can run 4 tractors on the old ones as there is a switch on the underside of the tractors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM190 Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 The fendt,Jd and claas can't be run with new controllers and the new tractors can't be run with old controller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 That's ridiculous and I thing very unfair of Siku to do this. As if the price of their lorry wasn't stupid enough they go and launch the latest range of tractors and they arn't compatible with the old models. That's as bad as fitting a rubbish hitch on a tractor after years of having a brilliant, proven one. If Siku continue on their merry way of releasing Limited Edition Mass Production Models aswell as having a damn good try at ripping off the punters with this, RC2's redevelopment could be very, very timely indeed.
