Cruise Control
Using Cruise Control for Advanced GPS Navigation
During regular operation of the Advanced GPS Navigation system, the user can control Prop speed. The controller will communicate the Speed Over Ground (SOG) to the remote and the remote will display it. The SOG is the speed that the boat is traveling and will vary based on environmental factors such as wind and current, even if the Prop speed remains the same. Cruise Control helps to compensate for the variety of external forces that affect the SOG and keeps the boat traveling at an even speed. When Cruise Control is engaged, the current SOG becomes the Target Speed. Cruise Control automatically controls the Prop speed to match the Speed Over Ground to the Target Speed.
Engage Cruise Control
- Press the Cruise Control button.
- Once Cruise Control is engaged, the Cruise Control icon will display on the Dashboard.
- The Target Speed can be increased and decreased using the Speed Up and Speed Down buttons. The Prop speed will adjust accordingly based on the current conditions.
Disengage Cruise Control
- When Cruise Control is engaged, press the Cruise Control button to disengage.
- The Cruise Control Target Speed and Cruise Control icon will disappear from the Dashboard.
Max Speed
Using Max Speed with Advanced GPS Navigation
Motor Speed and Max Speed
- Max Speed sets the Prop speed to Speed 10 when engaged and returns to the previously set speed when disengaged. Max Speed can be engaged regardless of what the current Prop speed is.
- Max Speed can only be engaged if the function is assigned to one of the One-Boat Network buttons. Click here for information on Customizing the One-Boat Network Buttons on the Advanced GPS Navigation Wireless Remote.

AutoPilot
Using AutoPilot for Advanced GPS Navigation
AutoPilot is an Advanced GPS Navigation feature that allows the user to control heading or course. While engaged, adjustments can be made on the fly simply by making a steering adjustment to re-establish their heading or course.
AutoPilot Modes
Two different modes of AutoPilot are available: Locked Course AutoPilot and Locked Heading AutoPilot. Both are collectively referred to as AutoPilot. There are distinct differences between the two AutoPilot Modes and how they control the boat. Both Locked Course AutoPilot and Locked Heading AutoPilot are valuable tools anglers can use for accurate and precise bait presentation. Minn Kota highly recommends getting on the water and trying both Locked Course AutoPilot and Locked Heading AutoPilot in various fishing situations and applications. With experimentation and time you will find which AutoPilot Mode works best in any given situation.
-
Locked Heading AutoPilot
AutoPilot uses an internal compass to provide heading lock. When Locked Heading AutoPilot is on, it keeps the motor pointed in the same compass direction. If a manual steering correction is made, Locked Heading AutoPilot locks onto the new compass heading to which the boat was steered. This method of heading tracking does not take into account external forces such as a side wind or currents, which can allow side drift. -
Locked Course AutoPilot
Locked Course AutoPilot not only uses compass heading but also GPS data to correct for cross winds, current and other external forces to keep the boat on the intended course. When Locked Course AutoPilot is turned on, it creates a course that it will follow. When the user steers to a new heading, a new course is created. Locked Course AutoPilot will keep the boat on the course in most conditions. When very extreme conditions exist, such as very strong winds or currents, the trolling motor may not have enough power to control the boat smoothly. In these extreme cases, it may be best to use Locked Heading AutoPilot and let the boat move with the wind or current if the motor is not powerful enough to overcome it.
Engage AutoPilot
- Press the AutoPilot button.
- The AutoPilot Active Band will appear on the Dashboard. Either Locked Heading AutoPilot or Locked Course AutoPilot will be engaged depending on the AutoPilot Mode selected.
- To adjust the desired heading, manually steer the motor to the new heading. The Advanced GPS Navigation system will automatically lock onto the new heading.
Set the Default AutoPilot Mode
AutoPilot has two modes
- Locked Heading - This method of heading tracking does not take into account external forces such as a side wind or currents, which can allow side drift.
- Locked Course - This method of AutoPilot not only uses compass heading but also GPS signal data to correct for cross winds, current and other external forces to keep the boat on the intended course. Except when using Cruise Control, motor speed may need to be adjusted in order overcome outside influence like wind and current.
