Minn Kota i-Pilot Heading Sensor Spot-Lock BT (Bluetooth), PowerDrive & Riptide PowerDrive White

The Bluetooth-enabled heading sensor in this device includes a compass that detects the heading of your boat and communicates it to your trolling motor. This enables the Spot-Lock Jog feature, which allows you to move your Spot-Lock location in 5-foot increments in any direction.

The compass within the heading sensor determines the direction your boat is facing. It then transmits this heading information to the trolling motor via a Bluetooth connection. This integration between the sensor and the motor facilitates the Spot-Lock Jog functionality.

With the Spot-Lock Jog feature, you can make minor adjustments to your boat's position while it is in Spot-Lock mode. Rather than having to completely disengage the Spot-Lock and reactivate it in a new location, you can simply nudge the boat in the desired direction using the Jog controls. Each press of the Jog button will move the boat 5 feet in that direction, allowing you to fine-tune your positioning as needed.

This level of precise control over your boat's location is particularly useful when fishing in tight quarters or around obstacles. Instead of drifting off your ideal spot, you can use the Spot-Lock Jog to keep your boat perfectly positioned, ensuring you maximize your time in the most productive areas.

The Bluetooth connectivity between the heading sensor and trolling motor enables seamless communication and integration of these features. By wirelessly transmitting the boat's heading data, the system can automatically adjust the motor's thrust and direction to maintain the Spot-Lock without any manual intervention.

This advanced functionality is made possible by the advanced sensing and control capabilities built into the heading sensor device. Its compact and durable design ensures reliable performance, even in the demanding marine environment.

Overall, this Bluetooth-enabled heading sensor is a valuable addition to any trolling motor-equipped boat. By providing precise, on-the-fly control over your Spot-Lock location, it helps you stay perfectly positioned to target the most productive fishing spots, ultimately enhancing your overall angling experience.
