    Hello everyone, I'm a first time boat owner and I have to buy a new trolling motor for my boat. Is it possible to buy a trolling motor with the "Spot Lock" ability without having to dump another $3 grand on an Ultrex? The company/ brand isn't that important to me... I just want to know what kind of trolling motor models are out there that can do the spot lock thing, and those that are perhaps cheaper (ie Motor Guide). I know the Ultrex does, Im pretty sure theres a "power drive 2" from minn kota does as well but that also seems top of the line... What about a Fortrex? Can a minn kota edge do spot lock? Thanks for clarifying

    Installed a new Ulterra iPilot Link Bluetooth on the bow of a Sylvan Pro Select V16. Downloaded the App, upgraded the software, performed sensor calibration, and sensor offset. When using spot lock, the motor will rev to full speed to port and then full speed to starboard thus overshooting the GPS location continuously. The 80#thrust will just about throw you out of the boat. The forum on In-Depth Outdoors speaks about this issue back in 2016. Supposedly, the external puck in 2017 eliminated the problem. Clearly it has not. Has anyone experienced this and found a solution? MK is standing by a software upgrade as the solution. It has been upgraded and the results remain the same. BTW the calibrations were done in varying conditions from dead calm to 25+ MPH wind. I have videos of the problem but they are too large to post. I've also seen videos of the calibration process. One used the trolling motor to perform the 2 circles while the other used the outboard. Will either one work? Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.
