Not sure if this subject has hit or not so thought I'd share.

I had a problem with my Ulterra that has finally been solved so there is now an assignable cause for what was happening and thankfully a solution too.

When launching on a steep landing my motor was hitting the roller on my trailer dislodging the magnet that is friction mounted on an "l-bracket" for lack of a better term. This caused the motor to not find the proper position prior to stowing resulting in an unstowed finish.

There is a solution and a new 2-position mounting bracket that you can offset and slide back to a safe launch position and then re-position forward when using. It costs $250.00 and has come out since many had this problem.

I was disappointed in the inability for this to be fixed with confidence the past couple of years but now get it and with the change in base plate can use this motor with confidence again.

I'm not sure if this was re-engineered since I bought mine (it's the first or second year model ... can't remember).

So, if anyone is having similar problems, look into this as a solution and enjoy the Ulterra with confidence.
