    Livescope on Transom Mount?

    They were making a auto 360 transducer for the transom and they stop making it dumb . I was going to buy a new solix 12 and a auto tramson 360 up and down or order it , but not now . I am not going to let the transducer up and down manual !

    Think of LS as a flashlight underwater. If the transducer is fixed, then you would have to point your boat to look at a certain spot. And on a transom it would always be behind you.
    I tried it mounted to my trolling motor and couldn’t stand having to steer to view LS. I loved controlling it with my foot pedal, but mines now on a PVC pole.
    keep in mind you have to physically move the transducer to change ‘Down / forward / perspective’ views. It’s a pain as it is, and I can’t imagine reaching down a transom to move it.

    do you know who the source of this is? You perhaps?

    ive just ordered all the parts and will be building this right away. All I think I need now is the foot controller, or even a hand controller if a foot pedal gets hard to find. He uses a trim switch but only because he has one already. I suppose spending decent money on one isn’t out of the question. Yet a 3 way rocker switch would do the job.
    im thinking somewhere in China there’s a cheap foot pedal that would fit the bill.
