What is FreeSteer? A lightweight, wearable joystick remote providing full 360 precision steering. Use it just like a traditional right/left button remote along the X-axis by tapping & releasing for smaller 1.5-degree adjustments or holding to the left or right for larger steering adjustments. Hold the joystick in any direction and the lower unit will align, then point in the corresponding direction until released. FreeSteer unlocks the ability to move anchor positions freely, in any direction, without having to re-anchor the boat. Anglers also have the option to jog diagonally for a total of 8 directions.
