Would i be able to splice the wires together to be able to use the foot pedal incase the remote dies?

Will I lose the ability to use the foot pedal with this? Or is it as simple as unplugging the ipilot plug and plugging in the foot pedal?

Brand new Powerdrive 55 lb 12v installed on a new boat from the dealer. I would presume it's a 2022 model. This V2 stuff has me confused. This one above has a side/side foot pedal only. No remotes. Which upgrade model will work, if any?

Great Video! I have a question that you may or may not have the answer to. I have a PowerDrive V2 that I installed the original iPilot system on maybe 5 years ago now. Everything works really well, except for the spotlock is not as tuned as I want it to be. I seem to move about 50-75 feet either direction from when I hit spotlock. Is this just because of the original version of the spotlock does not have that bluetooth GPS Puck, or is there something else I can do to have a more accurate spot lock. Thanks!

@trollingmotorparts 2 жыл бұрын

The Non Bluetooth I-Pilot Legacy models had issues with that. Unfortunately, Converting your motor to Bluetooth would be the only way to improve the drifting and overcorrecting. The I-Pilot Bluetooth models are quite a bit more accurate and also allow you to adjust the sensitivity.

Does this kit have the jog mode where you can bump up 5 feet while holding on spot lock?

@trollingmotorparts 2 жыл бұрын

You would also need to add a Heading Sensor to have the jog feature. trollingmotorparts.com/minn-kota-bluetooth-heading-sensor/

Hello! I sent you an email. I am looking to get spot lock, main and only reason. I was looking at just outright selling my power drive v2 but I saw this. Now will spot lock work decently with my unit with this conversion kit? Or am I better off selling and upgrading to a whole newer system? If I can save money I’d rather do that by buying this

@trollingmotorparts 2 жыл бұрын

Adding this kit to a Powerdrive V2 will make your motor the same as the new Powerdrive Bluetooth. The lower unit, steering motor, control board, etc. are the same on both models. You can add I-Pilot and save a lot of money with this kit.

@chrisfreeman5191 Жыл бұрын

Hey man, I bought a conversion kit for my V2 about a year ago and everything worked great. I just got a bigger boat and when I first hooked it up it worked just fine until the motor went out and it wouldn’t turn. I replaced the motor but now the spot lock doesn’t work and the navigation doesn’t work. It’s like it’s not picking up GPS or something whenever I hit spot lock the motor just turned all the way up to 10 on its own and just kind of goes in circles or just turns off to one Direction. Whenever I use the navigation, it just doesn’t stay on point. I read a lot of stuff about battery power. Not sure if my battery load is not sufficient or what but the battery charges up all the way and everything else works with it. The remote seems to work just fine as well. Do you have any thoughts or have you seen this before? All the mechanical and electrical parts on the motor are pretty new so I’m at a loss. Thanks, Chris

Adding this kit to your PowerDrive V2 will give you all of the same I-Pilot functions that a new Terrova would have. The difference is the Terrova has the ability to use both the foot pedal and the remote. The PowerDrive will only use the I-Pilot remote.
