How well does the Hummingbird kit used to convert a transom mount transducer for use on a trolling motor work?
I am buying a Helix 10 Chirp Mega Di+ GPS G4N. My trolling motor is a Minnkota Edge 70
Transducer Saver better?

Works great if you have room on the motor for it.
The Humminbird trolling motor adapter positions the transducer closer to the body of the motor and comes with a battery charger RFI choke cable and hose clamps.
The Transducer Shield and Saver is taller and comes with no attachment parts, separate purchase of the hose clamps.
Your issue with the Edge is having room between the prop and skeg for the transducer. A mount won't fix that.
This is the DI+ transducer on a US2 Ultrex using the Humminbird mount:
