New carplounge rt7 just popped up on there fb page. God know how much it is, probably have to sell a kidney but the raymarine and autopilot built into the handset looks great. No extra tablets or tripods.

Yes, i though so too. It's convenient not to havt to faff around with carrying and charging tablets, WiFi extenders and tripods.

you can still put that on a tripod. would be difficult to save locations and send out boat throwing that all in one control on the ground whilst faffing with the boat.

But its cool. For me personally not enough has changed to warrant the outlay if im honest. Still same GPS,Motors,Accessories etc. Plus I use my S8 Ultra tablet which is awesome as 14.6" oled screen shows much more clarity than what that small screen will show. I use same tablet for watching sky or movies etc so would take it regardless

Do like the RGB lights though

Planning on using it 3 foot under water?! Why would IP67 be a requirement for a remote control you use on the land?

IP55 would be perfectly adequate for this.

Is there any remote that is? Cant see it ever being water tight with movable switches and tablets that click in/out leaving power connectors on show. From my little experience with bait boats not one remote has ever been. Would been good if it was though
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
