Great tip. Just received the I-pilot upgrade for the old riptide from you guys. Great service and product. The best.

Good stuff! Super helpful. Had no idea why my trolling motor would "seem to freak out" on spot lock. Now I know why.

Last week I got my riptide BT and I link upgrade from from yall. And it was fast shipping and easy to upgrade for everything thank yall. And this weekend I went out 25 miles offshore and the spot lock worked great. The only thing I could tell differently was the trolling motor was running and spin around more. But it stayed dead on. With the regular I pilot wo/ bt and no link it didn't seem to spin around as much. I calibrated the heading sensor maybe thats normal. Thanks

esto es justo lo que necesitaba encontrar. En el modo fondeo el motor me acelera demasiado, quisiera limitar en cierta manera todas estas subidas de revoluciones y que el proceso sea un poco mas lento

By setting +1 or +2 will that eat alot more out of your batteries?

What if it won't give you an offset reading or tells you the offset is too large when you face the head forward??

Good video, except I am experiencing the same problem with my 2016/17 ulterra, my remote is similar to yours but not the same button configuration ( not as many buttons ) my up and down buttons are on the side and no "home" button, can't seem to find a "system" page? Any help would be greatly appreciated ....

My spot lock will not come on when you mash the button, any suggestions? Minn kota ultrex 80lb.

Great video.. just purchased a Minn Kota ulterra on the recommendation of my local boat dealer.. but after reading many negative comments, I’m having second thoughts.. did I make a good choice?

@trollingmotorparts 2 жыл бұрын

It’s not a bad motor. I only recommend them if you actually need the automatic stow and deploy though, because that is where the majority of their issues are.

@Majeskty 5 ай бұрын

I assume at this late date you have the problem solved. However, give Minn Kota support a call and they should be able to talk you through it all. I am thinking that first time I had to fiddled with it but finally got it to connect. Humminbird and Minn Kota support has been very helpful on various learning curve of these fancy devices, so they work for us. Good luck!
