[QUOTE="FuzzyGrub, post: 519480, member: 3438"] I have the Xi3, but don’t think it maters which slot. On its third season and can’t believe we have gotten that lucky on every deployment. We do point it forward after aligned in the slots. Just in case it was last on a higher speed setting. I would think it would be keyed for only one position if that was the case. Ie one wide slot one narrow slot. As far as I know, there are no servo motors or tach to read within the steering motor. Just the digital compass in the head unit. The gps receiver is in the base unit. Connections to the control board but nothing direct to steering. We are planning the first fall outing for next week. I will do the compass and orientation calibration and test the 180 slot engagement. You made me curious! [/QUOTE]
