I just ordered one, so I'll let ya know when I get it out on the water :)
It's actually the HELIX 7 CHIRP MEGA SI GPS G3
i'm still looking, thanks
Still looking for this unit. PM me if anyone has one to sell. thanks
Looking to upgrade my my helix 5 to this helix 7. pm me. thanks
wow interesting. so what yur saying is the advantage here is the screen size on the helix 7. So will a larger screen size increase the size of the images giving more confidence to stop and fish an...
Is this case with mega si though? I can understand di since it's a cone shooting downwards, but for mega SI is it able to clearly make out fish since it's a sideward beam? My goal is to go down a...
interesting, the question I have is did it help your catch rate, and did it help give you more confidence in locating more bass? With the helix 5 I have the HD transducer so I can make out structure...
yah, leaning this way. I see they are gen4 now. does anyone know if there are any major differences between gen3 and 4 in this model?
good points my friend, good points. I think I'm curious if anyone can share their experiences going from a helix 5 to a 7 with mega and if they felt it allowed them to interpret the images in a way...
I'm on a helix 5 si gps g2 with the hd transducer and wondering if besides the screen size moving to a helix 7 with mega si will make a large enough difference in pinpointing structure and fish out...
Looks like at icast 2021 they introduced the Helix 5 CHIRP DI GPS G3. I own the Helix 5 SI GPS G2 along with the XHS 9 HDSI 180 T transducer, so is there any value In me moving to this new Helix 5...
yah this was my thought also, good to hear someone confirm. thanks wayne. yur awesome.
The black indentations, Are these old spawning beds? This lake is max depth 13ft and I have been seeing these in that 6-7ft range all over my lake. they don't look like fish shadows because there is...
I found just getting out on the water and using the unit is the best you can do. lots of advice like wayne said but what helped me was just using it and messing with all the settings. the screen...
I have similar low quality issues with my down imaging than I do with side imaging on my helix 5 gps g2. I just upgraded to the HD XHS 9 HDSI 180 transducer and this didn't help. Is this due to the...
Are the images of the fish any better? can you send any of these? thanks
yah I got it and just mounted it today. will test later this week and put some posts up for others. thanks guys
bump, any one have more images of the XHS 9 HDSI 180 T unit? I saw those few in the beginning but I'm not convinced. Does the target separation improve and does seeing fish improve? thanks
Marks from an anchor which touched the bottom and dredged out holes?
Are these black shadows fish? Whats strange if they are fish is that the solid yellow pixel's next to them are to the left not the right where the SI imaging beam is coming from. thanks

wow I wish I could get customer service from humminbird that fast, it's why I post here . thanks for the quick response.
Are these the correct versions of the latest software I should be running...
I've got the Helix 5 GPS G2 SI and there are 3 or 4 places in a local lake I fish which read 9ft on my 2D/DI/SI imaging but when i go over them and look at how my autochart records these it shows...
yah so this image is at 455. the SI on the helix 5 only does 455. thanks
Good Tip. Yah, I'll play with that bottom hardness feature some more also. It's Interesting. It seems that tightening the min and max scale will show much stronger color differences between different...
Anyone know what the issue is here with this image? I have not seen these kinda streaks until I used my unit this past weekend. I own a Helix 5 SI GPS G2. They came and went during my day, but seemed...
