Minn Kota i-Pilot Replacement Remote - Larger LCD, Watertight Build, Easy Battery Access

Upgrade your i-Pilot experience with the replacement remote

Engineered for life on the water, the Minn Kota i-Pilot Replacement Remote brings a refreshed interface and rugged durability to your trolling setup. The redesign centers on readability and control, helping you stay focused on the catch rather than fiddling with tech. A 20% larger LCD screen is easier to scan from across the cockpit, even as wave action rolls by and early light shifts.

Key design features you’ll notice

• 20% larger LCD screen improves readability in bright sun and dawn dimness.
• High-visibility laser-etched buttons stand out, providing tactile confirmation with wet hands.
• External battery compartment allows quick swaps without disconnecting cables or opening the housing.

Live feedback at a glance

Stay informed with instant updates on active functions, current speed, prop status, battery levels, and GPS signal strength. This data helps you time your lures, adjust trolling pace, and understand when guidance locks in on a waypoint.

Flexibility for multi-remote setups

Pair unlimited remotes with your i-Pilot GPS trolling system to share control across the crew or across multiple boats in a fleet. This flexibility can make long days on the water feel more efficient and coordinated.

What to expect

• Reliable telemetry for faster adjustments and better situational awareness.
• Durable design that holds up to salt spray, splashes, and day-long use.
