2. Planing Boat Speed
Note the speed at which the boat gets on plane and enter it in this parameter.
3. Deploy Position
Activate Holeshot Mode and throttle up as you normally would when taking the
boat up on plane.
The trim tabs will deploy to the Deploy Position as the boat accelerates.
Notice the boat's attitude as it gets up on plane. If there is excessive bow rise,
increase the parameter value. If there is excessive bow steer, or the bow is
digging in, decrease the parameter value.
Make small changes to the parameter and test after each change.
4. Deploy Hold Duration
If the boat has an SOG source, you can skip this step, as this parameter is not used.
Activate Holeshot Mode and throttle up as you normally would when taking the
boat up on plane.
✓ The trim tabs will extend to their deploy position then begin to retract after the
number of seconds in this parameter has elapsed.
Once the trim tabs have deployed, notice the way the boat's attitude changes
as it gets up on plane. If there is excessive bow rise, decrease the parameter
value. If there is excessive bow steer, or the bow is digging in, increase the
parameter value.
Make small changes to the parameter and test after each change.
5. Retract to Favorite Speed
This parameter has a less noticeable effect than Deploy Position and Deploy Hold
Time, but if there is still excessive bow rise after tuning those parameters you can
increase the value of this parameter.
Activate Holeshot Mode.
With the parameter at its default value, throttle up as you normally would when
taking the boat up on plane. Observe the performance.
Increase the parameter and repeat getting up on plane until you are satisfied
with the amount of bow rise.
