I have an Xi5 and been running it all season. Switch from terrova specially so I could hook it to lowrance screens. Gateway is awesome. You can set it up so it shows heading and prop speed or mph on top of screen no matter what page you're on. I find that easier than the terrova as I am already looking at the lowrance and don't have to look at the remote to run it (once you learn where the buttons are). I do have trouble using the remote and foootpeda together though. I use remote most of the time as I like heading lock, and can't activate that on pedal. The problem I see is when I make a correction with the pedal, usually midcast, when its tough to use the remote. Sometimes I get a delay, sometimes it works fine, and once in a while it tries to spin around and around.... Overall though pretty happy with my change. One questions though, I think my prop shaft may be bent....do you guys see any change in noise or vibration when you go from 50% to say 100? Mine seems to really vibrate when I kick it down.
