    What your motor was doing in the garage is exactly what mine does on the water, it moves all over the place. Can't wait to try the legacy mode on the water. Great video

    Hell yeah…
    First time in my boat last night, thought I was losing my mind. Been using an old auto pilot for a decade, hit auto pilot last night and it did just that motor went nuts and I’m drifting backwards in a river trying to hold a track.
    Thank God and thank you…
    I watched this video before I got back on the River today.

    Excellent video. I learned a lot and appreciate you taking the time to explain the two modes. The information about ensuring that you have the trolling motor powered on when selecting the auto pilot mode was particularly helpful. 👍

    Man, did I enjoy the way you explain using your iPilot troll motor programs and how it works. Yes, I did. I appreciate your knowledge and the effort you made to post this video. You've helped me better understand this feature, which I never used because I didn't get into the program. Please make more of these videos about how to use this troll motor's other features. Thanks again.

    Wish I would have seen this last year. Learned about the two modes the hard way pulling 6-8 lines 1.6 MPH while crankbaiting for crappie. Advanced is decent on a calm day but a strong crosswind would make a mess. Switched to legacy and it's night and day better.

Heading to our annual Minnesota fishing trip in 10 day and now I at least know to get it into "legacy mode" and how to do it. We do a lot of "long line" trolling. You can't believe how glad I am I found your video. Thank You!!!!

  • @62gipper
    @62gipper 2 года назад +1

    I saw a RUclips video that showed the problem using Advanced Mode vs Legacy mode is the AM depends on a connection to a satellite and the LM is using direction NOT from a satellite. So since you're boat is in your garage for the demo (like it would be under a bridge in a lake), the the AM has trouble connecting to the Satellite if it can connect at all. For example, using spot lock in AM under a bridge (or your garage) it doesn't know exactly where the boat is. So it's constantly moving/searching. Does that make sense?

    • @bluegrassstateofmind4542
      @bluegrassstateofmind4542  2 года назад

      That very well could be true as well. This biggest difference though is how the boat react when it loses its line in the 2 different modes

    • @bluegrassstateofmind4542
      @bluegrassstateofmind4542  2 года назад

      Spot lock needs something to work against like wind or current. You can spot lock on still water but your boat will likely spin in circles. Anything in particular you wanna see?

  • @mikechamberlain5672
    @mikechamberlain5672 Год назад

    To clarify, I have a 2020 Riptide Ulterra, 112#, 36V. When I use Spot Lock on Advanced mode, the TM head constantly adjusts left and right, especially in calmer conditions with little current. Yes it holds well but the constant 25-90 degree head rotation is irritating and seemingly unnecessary. If I switch to Legacy mode and use Spot Lock---will all of this head rotation and adjusting stop? I'm talking Spot Lock only. Thank You.

    • @bluegrassstateofmind4542
      @bluegrassstateofmind4542  Год назад

      We noticed the biggest difference with itracks but it would be easy enough to try. Spotlock is tough in still conditions in general though
