Minn Kota Ultrex 80/MDI/IP Trolling Motor w/i-Pilot Link & Bluetooth- 24V-80lb-45" *Remanufactured — Product description
Upgrade your angling adventures with a trolling motor that combines cutting-edge sonar imaging, effortless control, and rock-solid GPS anchoring. This powerhouse delivers precise navigation and crystal-clear views beneath your boat, turning every outing into a masterclass in fish-finding efficiency. Whether you're chasing bass in shallow weeds or holding steady over deep structure, it adapts seamlessly to keep you dialed in.
Seamless Sonar Integration with Built-In MEGA Down Imaging
Forget the hassle of external transducers dangling off your bow—everything you need for superior underwater visibility is already integrated. The lower unit houses a dedicated MEGA Down Imaging sensor that beams high-frequency signals straight down, revealing fish, vegetation, and bottom contours in stunning detail. Paired with CHIRP sonar, it sweeps a wide range of frequencies to cut through clutter, delivering pinpoint accuracy from surface to depths.
Anglers love how this setup simplifies installation: just connect your compatible fish finder, and you're scanning without exposed wires vulnerable to snags or weather. It's like having a window to the water column right at your trolling motor's base, helping you spot staging fish or subtle drop-offs that traditional sonar might miss.
Effortless Power Steering and Intuitive Foot Pedal
Steer with the finesse of a pro using the responsive heel-toe foot pedal, designed for marathon sessions without fatigue. Power steering provides smooth, immediate response, while the steering lock feature holds your heading steady the moment you lift your foot—no drifting back or constant corrections needed.
- Momentary precision: Dial in tight turns around cover or follow contours effortlessly.
- All-day comfort: Ergonomic design reduces leg strain on long days.
- Spot-Lock button: Instant access to GPS anchoring from the pedal itself.
Advanced GPS Features: i-Pilot Link and Spot-Lock Mastery
Take command of your boat's position with i-Pilot Link, the gold standard in automated trolling. Record and replay precise paths along shorelines or contours, engage AutoPilot to maintain headings against wind and current, or activate Spot-Lock to hover over hot spots with GPS accuracy rivaling a virtual anchor.
Enhance Spot-Lock with Jog functionality—nudge your position up to five feet in any direction using the heading sensor, perfect for fine-tuning over schools without resetting. Bluetooth connectivity lets you control everything from a mobile app, including software updates, while the integrated battery meter keeps you informed of runtime left.
"It's a game-changer for solo anglers—set it, forget it, and focus on casting."
Built to Last: Composite Shaft and Digital Maximizer
Crafted for brutal conditions, the indestructible composite shaft flexes under impact but never breaks—backed by a lifetime guarantee. Pair it with Digital Maximizer technology, which optimizes power draw for up to five times longer battery life on a single charge. Variable speed control ensures you sip power at trolling speeds or unleash thrust when needed.
Lift-Assist makes stowing and deploying a breeze, using a gas-charged spring to halve the effort. This 24V, 80lb thrust model with 45-inch shaft excels on mid-to-large boats, providing the torque for heavy loads in wind or current.
Pro Tips for Maximizing Your Trolling Motor
To get the most from your setup:
- Mount it at the optimal bow height for clear DI views—avoid submersion that muddies readings.
- Pair with compatible chartplotters for full i-Pilot synergy, sharing waypoints seamlessly.
- Regularly rinse the lower unit after saltwater use to protect the built-in transducer.
- Use the app's Advanced AutoPilot for contour hugging during searches—saves fuel and time.
- Monitor battery via the remote to plan trips, extending your time on prime water.
Remanufactured units like this one undergo rigorous factory testing, delivering like-new performance at a fraction of the cost—ideal for serious anglers seeking value without compromise.

Now with Built In MEGA-DI:
You can’t mark fish if you can’t see fish. And the best view of what’s below comes from Humminbird’s MEGA Imaging™. So get a Humminbird’s eye view with a MEGA DI transducer built right into the lower unit of our most powerful, trusted motors.
No cluttered wires, no clamps and a transducer that’s protected from the elements. Just plug your fish finder into your motor to see what’s down there. Then go catch it.
No External Transducer - Messy wiring on an externally mounted transducer doesn’t just look bad: the transducer and wires are more susceptible to damage. With Built-In MEGA DI, the transducer is housed in the indestructible lower unit and all wiring runs through the shaft, for a clean, uncluttered look that’s protected from the elements.
Humminbird MEGA Imaging opened the eyes of anglers everywhere by taking fish finding into the megahertz frequency for the first time. Now your Minn Kota® motor can deliver crystal clear MEGA Down Imaging of what’s directly below the bow, just the way it was meant to be seen.
In addition to MEGA Down Imaging, the Built-In MEGA DI transducer will also provide CHIRP Digital Sonar, for precise, crystal-clear returns of fish, structure and the bottom at all water levels. Sweeping multiple frequencies across a broad spectrum, this powerful tool eliminates noise for precisely defined targets.
