More than happy with mine but the buttons for the invisible mode are not working. Lost 4kg of bait because of that because if you press the invisible button in the app it opens all flaps. Guess my face when I wanted to be stealthy and 15m from the bank all the flaps opened.

Wrote them but they havent fixed it yet. None of the icons/Buttons can be changed, not even in the specific menu for that.

You can still go invisible when you press the A Button on the remote.

bet you weren't happy.

Looking at the boat I saw all those recesses and thought they'll be a bugger to keep clean, then saw the kits on Ebay to infill them, great idea.

There great boat. The update has messed it up and a lot of unhappy owners
Mine seems to be OK. Goes to the saved spots. The GPS shows it at zig zag but the boats going straight
The Anchor is good and works. The home setting is not tge best idea and needs changing. I now mark that as a saved spot just rename it

Excellent bit of kit. Had it from day 1. Only reason why I got rid was purely because I didn't use it enough to justify it.

I had the displeasure of fishing a social at East delph last weekend

One guy there had the deeper boat and the update has basically ruined it. He was saying that his sonar wont work properly, the gps is sketchy and the boat doesn't sync to the remote properly since. He loved it before.

First it span around a bit, before randomly going in circles. Pretty funny tbh

I was thinking of buying one for myself but personally, id wait for this recent update to get fixed

Isn't it a choice to update? If it comes with the new update in the box it should work fine, if it doesn't keep using the none updated version until it's fixed.

Sounds a lot like CL now, I was thinking this Deeper boat sounded good.

If the update wipes all previous settings, re the circling the boat may need the motors re trimming, if you can do that on the Deeper.

I bought one a week or so ago, have had issues with the gps part of the system, I feel like the boat is losing the gps signal , so when following auto pilot prompts it strugggles to pick up a strong signal and can zigzag to a waypoint instead of going directly to it. I re calibrated it and it worked better, i researched it a bit online and suggestions are leaving it to sync to satelites for a 5 minutes or so in the edge of the lake and recalibrating. Im fishing a 3 day session from tommorow so will try to sort it out at the lake. Bit disapointed But in reality it still will be a fun addition and i believe once a firmware update sorts this out or i in fact manage it myself it will be an awesome bit of kit.
At present the sonar still works fine but the area scan and gps seem a little out. I will test it during this session and reckon it will be working fine once i get some time to work it out . I havent really had enough time to get to grips with it yet but i spent an under an hour at the lake yesterday and had it working pretty well by the end of it , but phone battery stopped play lol.
If anyone knows of any other hints or tips to get them sorted please let me know as im not on facebook so cant access the information on there.
Are you sure?
