I'm super excited to share this DIY video! This is a fairly large project, and it will take you a day or two to make this wireless electric trolling motor once you get all the parts (costing less than $200), but I assure you this video will show you all the steps you will need to build your own inexpensive wireless remote controlled copilot type electric trolling motor mods for your fishing boat or diy kayak motor! It will have wireless steering, as well as on/off and forward/reverse pwm, all in one controller!

It's not necessarily a Minn Kota Terrova or Ultrex, but you can convert or mod an off the shelf Endura transom mount kicker motor ( or any cheap trolling motor brand ) with a 12v marine deep cycle or lithium battery and make it give the functionality of wireless remote trolling, like a "Poor Man's" copilot or ipilot. Other motors can be modded, including Motorguide, Newport, Haswing, and other Minn Kota counterparts (Riptide, Powerdrive, etc.).

I got inspiration to do this complete step by step from viewing several youtubers' videos, namely:

I highly recommend you check out their videos, too!

I was also excited to see if I could replicate a portable cheaper homemade version of the Autoboat, which costs about $700 to buy that than build for under $200. This does not provide the spot lock technology, but stay tuned for my upcoming project where I will make an arduino-based gps and compass anchor spot lock, like the Ulterra, XI-3, and Terrova. Also, when you add a PWM to an off-the-shelf Minn Kota cheap trolling motor, it will go from slow rotation to faster speed at variable speeds rather than the 5 set speeds and conserve the battery (either a SLA or Lithium ion Trolling Motor Battery). You could also convert the transom mount to a bow mount with a bit of wood or off the shelf aluminum parts!
