ESC Throttle and Servo Motor Steering Joystick Control for Trolling Motor

[@Yaknmattkayakfishing]

That’s so awesome Aksel. I own a native Titan now and I’ve been contemplating something like this.

Thanks Matt!

[@JohnKlopp]

Very cool project and great job! 👍

[@Aksmaniyak]

Thanks John.

How could I contact you for help in building this? Thanks and great video!!

Very nice! Would it at all be possible to calibrate the Left/Right axis steering to be less sensitive? It appeared to be very sensitive and if so, it can cause a problem when turning too fast?

[@Aksmaniyak]

Thanks! I think part of the issue may be getting used to the spring tension in the joystick. I have a video that shows how to slow down a servo motor if needed.

I'm curious if you already had the RC side set up for wireless control what would be the benefit to having this wired system especially cuz you had the RC setup already just curious looks like a great execution though :)

[@Aksmaniyak]

Thanks. I mentioned in the narrative that the wired version is waterproof unlike the wireless remote. It can be solid mounted with no concerns for dropping it in the water as with the wireless remote.

This looks so complicated wish i could understand wiring and electronics as good as i know woodwork. Freaking awesome tho

[@Aksmaniyak]

Thanks!

Why did you want to build this setup when the wireless setup is so cool? I built your wireless setup for my kayak, but I have had time to take it in the yet.

[@DecaDecaMusic]

I built mine this way so I didn’t risk being clumsy and dropping the remote in the water

[@erichvids]

@@DecaDecaMusichaha! Makes sense. I can’t wait to get my kayak on the water with the remote system I learned from you. I’ll take my chances with the remote. I may just drill a screw into it and put it on a lanyard.

Not sure why no response to this comment..

[@erichvids]

@@rickasisco You’re right. I thought it was the video creator who replied, but now I see it was someone else.

[@JU-KFISHING]

Have you tried adding GPS to the project?

[@Aksmaniyak]

No, but others are working on it.
