I am going to get this to run in conjunction with my predator minkota console. I imagine if I only use it for steering it will greatly improve the steering of the predator MK. I’d like to run this on a standard 12v battery instead of the battery it comes with. I figure I’d run this and my hummingbird on a 45ah and my minkota on another.
The evolve is probably 1 mph faster, that's what I get out of the torqueedo, but the ease of use and the price makes the bixpy a great option for this outback
+VentureTube motor alone was 4.5 or so wasn't a good day either. I couldn't keep up on my slayer. I don't know how long it will hold on those conditions but I'll run more tests 😁
Which specific rudder adapter for the 2019 outback? The twist and stow adapter is pre 2019...so which one is the 2019+...the bixpy website isn’t necessarily laid out very well..i like the idea of a rudder adapter as it allows for both pedal drive and the motor assist...
Aliex Folgueira yes...another buddy got one with the drive adapter and isnt too keen on it...vibrates and its either /or using the drive...I think the stern placement is best...i live on a large lake and at 56 the idea of pedaling around a 32 mile long lake was too daunting.....
Running the motor and the peddle doesn't add much speed if any. What it does do is reducing the power draw while maintaining a similar speed. The turbulence from the peddle causes dirty water and reduces the effectiveness of the motor. Pretty much canceling any added speed from the peddle. My experience is purely based on the torqeedo but I'm confident this motor would behave the same.
I test it that on the titan with torqeedo, at max speeds pedaling doesnt add anything but that's because torqeedo is already pushing the boat to its hull speed limits, but bixpy is little slower do it does help to pedal, I think we hit six can't remember exactly. Here is torqeedo on titan ua-cam.com/video/xN2z8jX5tP8/v-deo.html
Aliex why won’t you just buy a boat already? With all the money invested on these pedal kayaks plus accessories, you can just buy a cheap boat from Craigslist 🙂
+Meibol & Yariel Matos nah why? I won't be able to launch a boat off BNP or thru the beach in Dania or lots of places in Florida. I don't have to deal with gas and maintenance and the rest. I will get a boat soon though, but still have a bunch of kayaks hehe
This little motor is a beast! No doubt about it, check the description for more info about as well as the other two Bixpy videos 😁.
Minute 5:52 or so something big swims under the guy in front!
Is there anything a little less expensive you can recommend?
Awesome video. This helped me decide to get one. I just installed mine. I hope to test this week. I'm planning to do a review as well.
+TomyTek Outdoors let me know how it goes I have bunch of other videos about it not just the other one you saw 😉
Thanks for making them. I watched all of them. I really like the Revo one 😉
+TomyTek Outdoors lol I agree with you lol
So how did it go?
What model Kayak is the white one I like to know please
The outback 2018?
Alex, how much is the steering degraded with the Bixby mounted on the rudder when not using Bixby propulsion? I have a 2018 Outback.
Nah it is not much of a factor, unless you had the sailing rudder
@@AliexFolgueira I do have a sailing rudder so I'm considering mounting it onto the sailing rudder. What's your thoughts?
@@markjungdahl3054 it should work, you need to do the diy option don't forget to use my affiliate links lddy.no/3lfb
I think I will go offshore at Dania one more time and see how I feel after and I might just give this a try. Great video
+RaffGram 😁😁😁😁it is very nice

that little motor rocks
+Fishing Channel love it!

Bixpy can only use its own battery
Aliex Fishing well that’s just silly. Maybe I’ll wait until there’s a different more versatile option available.
love this bixpy motor,to buy one in australia will set you back for about $2000.
Auchhh
Anyone know how this compares to the Hobie Evolve Torqeedo? Other than Price of Corse. Just wanting to know long the power last and speeds.
The evolve is probably 1 mph faster, that's what I get out of the torqueedo, but the ease of use and the price makes the bixpy a great option for this outback
If you have the Bixby Rudder kit on, but are using the Hobie peddle drive, does it turn just as good when the bixby is off?
Yes it does just turn as good as the regular rudder
Aliex Fishing with the Bixby attached?
Yes with bixpy attached
What was the top speed? And how long will batt last at max power? Thanks
+VentureTube motor alone was 4.5 or so wasn't a good day either. I couldn't keep up on my slayer. I don't know how long it will hold on those conditions but I'll run more tests 😁
VentureTube
I have the snorkel Bixpy...can it accept this mounting system? I also have an Outback.
You need the rudder adapter and the battery you can run the bixpy iwrh the snorkel system but need the extension cable and the battery is smaller
These things are so cool, wish they weren't so expensive!
+Darren Turner yeah kayaks are so expensive now days but they are fun 😁
Bro you should test it out on the Titan. Just to see how well it does with bigger heavier kayaks.
+Code 1 Outdoors I will soon, should get mine Friday 😁ohh shit now I gotta register thr titan and thr hobie 😂😂😂
Aliex Fishing TV no worries bro! It's cheap. I think I paid around 20 bucks.
+Code 1 Outdoors thanks bro
Was that 30lbs of thrust?
Yeah 30#
That’s pretty good!
Bixpy is fast enough and not too expensive
Thanks!
Awesome video and awesome on the water time
+Kayak Q 305 FishIn yup, you need one of thess bixpy for your new Revo yooo
Dumb question... Is it possible to adapt a regular deep cycle marine battery to this or is the battery pack included overall just better long term?
No, it is a all in one system but you can get a second battery
I feel like that would be defeating the whole purpose of this lightweight compact design.
Which specific rudder adapter for the 2019 outback? The twist and stow adapter is pre 2019...so which one is the 2019+...the bixpy website isn’t necessarily laid out very well..i like the idea of a rudder adapter as it allows for both pedal drive and the motor assist...
I made a video with the Power pole adapter here ua-cam.com/video/L6vz0Ig86XM/v-deo.html
Also here is the link to buy it lddy.no/mhgy
Aliex Folgueira Ordered the jet with the pole adapter for my 2019 outback thru your link. Looking forward to using it.
Ned Berkowitz awesome, did you order it online?
Aliex Folgueira yes...another buddy got one with the drive adapter and isnt too keen on it...vibrates and its either /or using the drive...I think the stern placement is best...i live on a large lake and at 56 the idea of pedaling around a 32 mile long lake was too daunting.....
@@nedberkowitz9006 I don't like it on the drive well, rather use it on the rear, I wonder if you ordered thru my link
It looks fast from your view. Im sure it would be even faster on a non windy day!
Where can I get 1 and how much?
$999 you can Buy Bixpy JET using this link lddy.no/3lfb
Good info! Thanks for your review!
Thank you bro 😀

Ahh interesting....
Nice
It looked fast to me.
+BassGeek that's right, this little thing is magic, I'm going to get mine on Friday 😁😁😁 can't wait
Based on what?
"Hey Lucy. I'm home!"
Sweet!!!
+frank Osorto thanks
Is it on? LoL
Later: “Is it all the way in the water?”

+Meibol & Yariel Matos re boats, when are we heading out again 😁😁😁also let's go kayak fishing too hehe you will be hooked
Because kayak fishing has a lot of advantages over boats!
Yep. Need two lol
Yup I have two now 😎
When this motor will cost 500€ I will buy
motor alone no battery is about that lol
This dude sounds like Ricky Ricardo
+JIm Beam lol
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Not meaningful without data like actual speed, endurance (time/distance), weight of boat and person, etc.
Hard to calculate all those figures in 20 mins, bixpy have them listed on their site, Javier should be around the 200#
Too slow and too pricey no thanks
