    Ghost on RT188, anyone?

    Not in market right now, but...

    Was wanting some first hand reviews of it on an RT188.

    I was planning on getting an ultrex, but now that I've upgraded to Carbons I've been thinking the Ghost is the way to go.

    Was trying to wait for the MG Tour Pro but I want a new TM before Covid kills me! I watched Tackle Warehouse sell out of Ghosts since yesterday...just really like the brushless option. Keeping the X5 for backup.

    This motor has been fighting me since it showed up at the Post Office! Won't stow properly. Seems just face a different way every time? Tried a factory reset but I'm afraid that reset the pedal? The pedal configuration isn't outlined in the manuals because it's done at the factory now. Grr, hopefully that's the issue?

    I'm better now....needed to eat

    I think I've figured out the potential issue but need to call Lowrance to verify my theory above. Breakdown moved to the electrical thread.

    Ok, YES. I am now running a Ghost on my RT188!

    If you are thinking of installing one of these yourself, please check out my breakdown in the electronics/trolling motor section. A couple key points in there to be mindful of
