| I was going to buy a 80lb terrova for my 17'2012 tracker pro guide. I sold my original 55lb v2 and just found this deal. I can't pass it up. I wanted a foot pedal but for half the cost of a 80lb terrova I will work around it. The unit does not have US2. |

| where did you find that steal? |
|

|
| Amazon, it's a pre black Friday deal. 54" 70lb. It's weird they have a auto pilot model for 200 more than the I pilot model. |

| hopefully its not an add typo and you get the auto piolt model... |

| I know, I tripple checked the model number. The 45" model was 200 more than the 54" model. If they messed up its my gain. My receipt shows 54" 70lb ipilot. They have to honor it regardless. |

I guess my local marine/boat dealership and their employees needs my business more than some online company does... Plus I bought and installed it a month ago.
Glad I could help them out. |

I can appreciate that. Do you miss the foot pedal that much? |

No,.... But the wind can be a bigger challenge without the foot pedal. |

Location: Ontario | Can you swap quickly between ipilot module and footpedal? Or is it internal connection? |

| not from the factory. It is either pedal or remote, unless you are handy with circuits. You can build a toggle to go between pedal and I pilot but you are hacking into an expensive motor. Personally, I would opt for co pilot plus thet pedal. You won't get the electronic spot lock but it's a small trade off. |

| But is it 24v? |

| I've been watching it go from $660 to $750. I don't know why they do that, the last thing I want to do is spend more on something I know they were selling for less. 750 , is still a good deal but it just doesn't look that great after I saw $660. |
