Nice rundown!
Amazing video, very informative. Keep them coming!
Thanks! Just purchased one!
Great stuff guys
Great video. I'm waiting for someone to put a mic to the steering box and the motor so I can hear the difference between my Ultrex and the new one...
I’m right with Ben here, and I’ve wondered why it took 8 years to do something about that noisy, jerky Ultrex steering motor. Hopefully the steering motor is brushless too 😅! Great review, sounded more authentic than most all the other (paid) reviews out there. You’ve told many benefits, but saying a few drawbacks adds to your credibility. I’ve heard it’s heavy right? Any other drawbacks?
Thing is dope!
When stowing question. I like to pull my motor up just a little with the pull cable at times. I do this regularly when loading the boat up to leave the lake when I’m not using the big motor to load on to the trailer. When you pull it up a little can you still steer it and over ride the auto stow when it automatically turns the steering into stow mode? That way I can still steer a bit while lifting it up to avoid the motor hitting the trailer but still being able to move the boat forward and direct it on to the trailer.
Nice! Will the current (old) dual mega 360/target lock bracket fit the quest
Can you replace the pull cable on the water in an emergency? That was easy on the Fortrex but very difficult on the Ultrex.
Did they finally use a cable and get rid of that rope ? (Deploy/stow)
If you have lithium dont think that eco mode will ever work.. only cause ill assume voltage is how it determines how much battery life is left... my minn kota shows 24v all day and when batteries die its done... its 100 percent voltage until it shuts off...
Owned several minnkotas with spot lock, all became noisy in the steering gear box and required gear box replacements to make steering back and forth to become quiet again.
Sooo, my question is did they redesign the steering gear boxes, is the steering quieter than old design.
Yes they did, the steering box is a completely different design
Do I need a new Garmin Livescope bracket to mount to the new shaft design? Is it easier to pull it out of the water? I’ve broken 3 of the pull cables to pull it out of the water. A bad feeling when it happens.
You do not need a new mount just a slight modification and it is easier to stow and deploy
Ghost has had most of these features for years... way to catch up minn kota.
What is the price point for this new unit
So from what im seeing no need for me to upgrade lol. My cuurent ultrex works awesome
Did they add illumination so you can see your speed setting at night?
No they did not, would be a nice feature to add though
Can you please explain this to me? What do you mean? Where could or can't you see it? Thanks!
@@camilrykowski5765 On the speed wheel the numbers are not lit up
They should have also added a direction indicator that stays visible even when you aren't underway to help with FFS at night. These seem like obvious ideas...@@SpraungelPerformanceMarine
Ban Live Scope ! I will be buying a new Minn Kota !
hilarious how guys have 10k worth of electronics on just the front of their 90k dollar bass boat just to catch a stupid bass
Communism would be a better option
