Good review man! I’m looking for my first unit for my kayak and this might be the winner. Looking forward to checking out your videos. I grew up about an hour south of Rochester in Cohocton, NY. I live in Indiana now. Cheers!!

*I used I was impressed with it. I still haven't used all the features it has but will as I learn more about it.*

Any update? U still like it? Does it show accurate depth even when above 15mph?

Very good video. Im looking at this unit specifically for the GPS feature to install on my snowmobile for ice fishing . Do you think this would be a good one if im looking to simply upgrade from a handheld GPS? Just looking to have a good GPS to get me safely out and back in and to mark waypoints. Thanks!!

How is it holding up now? I am thinking about getting one and am split between this and the lowrance at a similar price point. I’ve been around a lot more helixes and am leaning towards it but need a little help deciding

Thanks for sharing brother. I have the Helix 5 on order and I can't wait to use it. Does it drain battery?

You're welcome bro!!! Yea it's awesome. I have it running the whole time on my boat I start it before I start my boat and shut it off when I get back to the launch and never had a problem with the battery.

Does this one take a chip? Great info

@jacobknippel8296 2 жыл бұрын

Do you need to buy the mapping chip for it ? Because I know Garmin is already loaded with mapping/contours no chip needed.

Wanting to put this on a 19 foot boat, do you think it would be good?

Which one is that? I am seeing a few different options for a Helix 5 - Humminbird Helix 5 GPS G2 Fish Finder, Humminbird Helix 5 Sonar G2 Fish Finder, Humminbird Helix 5 Di G2 Fish Finder .... we are just looking for the maps... so we dont hit rocks like we did last weekend

Just make sure the one you get has gps in the title that's the one that comes with the navionics chip with a lot of lakes already loaded on it. It will come with a sd card that says navionics on it make sure you find it before you throw out the packaging. I almost threw it out lol

GPS in the title don't mean nothing!! You have to get the one with DI in the title for down Imaging. I got the wrong one, now I have to uninstall it from the boat and send it back.

You're definitely right if you want the down imaging you have to make sure it says di in the title

Hey, what transducer are you using? I can’t find down imagining with mine.

@k.i.a.fishing2105 4 жыл бұрын

I'm using the one that came with it. Is your model the helix 5 DI?

K.I.A. Fishing after some further digging I realize mine isn’t DI or SI so I basically got the lower end radar. I appreciate you responding. I’m from western NY also so I’m going to follow you. I look forward to seeing the places and styles of fishing you do. I’m hoping to expand my fishing area.
