*This makes my old motor look like a toy **enjoyable.fishing** recommend it's well built. I haven't had it on the water yet, but I'm very sure it will perform just fine.*
Thanks for the video but, I was hoping for a little more detail about the "trolling with I-Pilot" as your title suggested. I just want to know how you set it up? I want to use my kicker and my I Pilot equipped Terrova to troll. I saw you had the TM prop speed at 7 which seems kind of high. If my target trolling SOG is let's say 2.5MPH, why can't I set the kicker to push me along at around 2MPH and let the TM put in the rest to get to my target SOG? Wouldn't that give it enough prop speed to give good steering control to the Autopilot function? I just really want to see a UA-cam video that takes the viewer through the set up process. Instead its usually a bunch of "look at me catch this big fish and show off the stuff I bought for my boat". Just like your video. Sorry, just callin it as I see it.
We are sorry you don't think this video is enough of a "how to" for you. The video shows you that you can use a kicker and the Minnkota system at the same time. Steer with the I pilot system but power comes from the kicker. This allows you to accurately run routes on your system and also adjust speed and save on battery. Hope this helps.

How does it do in the wind, When your trolling in a specific trolling path you have saved? Thank you great video!
but your running your kicker motor not the ulterra in the video?
It’s common to use the gas kicker for power and the bow mount electric to steer with I pilot.
Kyle is running the kicker and steering with the bow mount. He is explaining how easy it is to troll without having to steer with the I pilot system.
Gas kicker as pusher trolling motor to steer or heading lock that how I do it for eyes on Winnebago to big king salmon on Lake Michigan
I cannot run a kicker motor on my boat. Was looking for information on how I can actually troll with (only) a trolling motor.
Seen some huge muskies while duck hunting in the fall on poygan

Number once did you mention you were using a kicker motor
