Bnelson, they are right, there is a momentary on the new pedal I believe but not sure how convenient it is. The continuous button is very convenient but you would have to tap it twice. I currently run an older MG digital steer with the same sort of rocker pedal but it does not spring back to a center position like the new one does and obviously does not have all of the new features. I actually wish it would turn slower. I am also in the market for a new TM and am heavily weighing out the pros and cons. I myself usually run continuous depending on the spot I am working and sometimes use bursts but I do not like the small size of the momentary button on terrovas, so with that I usually hit constant on and off when I run my friends motors. One of the reasons for me making a switch in the first place is because my knees are bad the way it is and get really sore on a ten hour day of fishing. Usually I have to have a foot on my pedal because I do not have heading lock/autopilot. i want a terrova for the most simple feature of the left/right turn buttons which is the single most greatest features on those pedals meaning I can spend a lot more time standing on two feet. However, the features of spotlock and things like that I have noticed are much more spot-on on the new Xi5 from running my friends.....decisions decisions....
