Anyone using the rite-hite turret on an ultrex with mega 360? I just got mine in and am having problems mounting it withbthe 360 mount. I see videos and everyone's just bolts right up but my 360 mount is not allowing holes to align. Off the TM everything lines up. Did they change the 360 mount for the ultrex recently? I just purchased a new Ultrex and the ultrex 360 last week.
Plan on calling rite hite tomorrow but thought I'd see if anyone else had the issue so I can get this thing mounted. Either take a grinder to the 360 mount or the block on the rite hite is what it looks like it needs

Since you have a 360 the mega live turret from a hummingbird would be the best option for your boat and it would fit, and the target lock feature on the turret is really nice It would co habitat with your entire system And the ability to use a Remote built by Humminbird for the live turn his very useful I had the right height, and now I have the current and it’s a whole new ballgame

run away from the rite hite. Mine does nothing but break. Tossed it in the garbage.
If it was a stupid idea, you can be assured I have already done it

yeah hate to dis on something someone just bought, but the Rite Hite is known for having lots of issues, and being heavy. Lots of reviews on the varous boards talking about part breaking, bad CS, etc... It's half the cost of the others for a reason probably. FWIW, Live Scanner despite being twice the cost has the same complaints - cheap parts/construction and [censored] CS. Good software, but bad hardware apparently.

Have really enjoyed my live scanner. Would highly recommend. Any issues I have had have been my fault. Overall it’s a great product.

Well I bought a new outboard, mega live and 2 fish finders recently and now I had to buy a new ultrex and a new 360, I was way over budget so rite hite was actually more than I could afford. The minn kota was just too expensive right now.
I talked to rite hite and it was a rectangular plastic block that was slightly off. 10 seconds with a grinder and I was in business. Hopefully I have better luck with it and later upgrade.
Now if I just get my 5 port hub working correctly maybe I can get the boat on the water
