Ok, forgive my "stupid" question but I have done a lot of research on your digital servo throttle control as an interested buyer. It appears that your systems only increase or decrease the throttle plate on the carb, not the throttle linkage of the motor. Obviously, this method bypasses the motor's (2 stroke applications) timing advance linkage. My question is: What are the consequences of running the motor for long periods with no advancement of the ignition timing? I realize we are talking slow speed trolling with relatively low RPMs but still, your system (and all the other "Trolling Speed Controls" I've seen on the market) work primarily the same way. My kicker is an older 2 stroke but still has many years of good life in it and I would like to keep it that way. Looking forward to your answer.
Great video & looks like an excellent product. Considering ordering one to pair with a Panther T5 steering unit, hope that will work? I have a Striper 1851WA with a 2012 Suzuki 9.9 kicker & primarily fish for salmon when trolling but hope to fish for more spooky eyes on the east side next year. Only suggestion on the video is to leave some of the captions up longer, had to rewind & pause several segments to be able to read it! Thanks for a great product video!
Any chance this will ever implement GPS input for holding a specific speed range in different ( gusty wind ) conditions like cruise control ? Most the places I fish the wind kicks up and blows you around pretty bad requiring constant throttle manipulation to stay at proper presentation speed. I like the Idea of this but I feel like I might just be adding another interface to constantly be fiddling with the throttle speed, at a more precise level no doubt. If the wind is at my back and I am in trolling 1.4 mph +/- with the throttle at say 10% that setting will not work when I turn and face the wind will it? will I have to reprogram my hunt mode ? If there is a sudden gust of wind I can go from 1.4 to 3+ mph in seconds without input. I suppose electric motors are the only way to get the sort of features I am looking for?
Is this just for kickers? Or can you use it with merc 150 pro Xs? I have nmea with troll control so it revs down but not sure I can it to 1.5-2 mph. I mean I can use troll sock.. but curious if I troll or troll master is also for big engine
Every other brand you can click idle and it’ll go back to your last speed. Video is too much to sell the product. Not worth the over priced retail it is imo. Online it shows it has hunt and all that other stuff. When actually you have to buy all that “extra”!

Used last year awesome product! Love it
You should make a video using the Panther T5 steering unit, with your Itroll. Can both units be controlled with the same controller?

i was hoping they made that feature aswell
yea but can it control my grow room... hahaha
Will it work with Garmin Autopilot Kicker
Drink every time he says “ITROLL”

The itroll does work with larger engines as well. You need to buy the software update and then you can use it for both motors on your boat.
Left & Right button not work,, and no forward/reverse function.. Then not total control for outboard motor... ??? Need looking better solution:)
Can it work with a8hp evinrude two stroke
How do you select gears on a kicker motor you have to walk back to outboard select gears well it's useless
Frank Pucci none of the throttle controler operates the shifter

I'm thinking. Horribly over priced. Hard pass.
