The XI5 is the Motorguide version of the Ipilot. I bought the 36V 105 pound thrust version. Its one nice piece of equipment. Takes a little getiing used to it but the anchor option is awesome. The foot control is what takes time to adjust to. I use the remote 90% of the time. I put it in an iPhone arm band pouch and strap it to my forarm that I hold fishing rod with.
Even in all the wind we had this weekend the Anchor option held us in place so we could fish.

Thought I would post this incase some of you were thinking about getting one. Ill never go back to a regular TM.


GOD BLESS AMERICA.

sounds good, I wish Minn Kota would have one with strength of Fortrex and GPS of iPilot.
