How To: DD26 Live Foot Turret A MUST WATCH before your install. 

Thank you so much Francis for that uplifting compliment. Welcome to the channel and thanks for watching!

Thanks Todd! Happy Thanksgiving man.

Thank you very much David and Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!!

Thank you Chris! Welcome to the channel.

Appreciate it! Thank you!

Appreciate you Jason! Thanks

Oh wow! Let me see if I can find that and I'll try.. It's already pretty crowded on that side though but TY so much for your recommendation!

Thank you! YesI your right ✅️ I came to the same conclusion but wanted to start out as low as possible first. Thank you for watching and commenting Glenn!

Thanks for watching and commenting Todd! Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanks.. I hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine! Until they start building independent FFS transducer into the trolling motor itself.. I think this is the best out there! Appreciate your comment 👍

Just don't let anything get pinched my friend.. Thanks for watching and commenting Jay!

Thank you Vlad! Yes it's the Force 50" shaft. Thanks for watching and commenting. I'll be doing some follow up reviews.. Hit that subscribe button!

My TM has dedicated 24v. The TM foot pedal can run on batteries or 12v direct.. I tapped into the 12v that feeds the TM pedal. No problems been running this setup for a while now. As for locating your 12v sorce.. Idk most boats already have some harness there for accessories like graphs or in my case what I used for my 12v source.. Hope that helps! Thank's for watching and commenting Don.

This product for as great as it is, was severely lacking in a comprehensive install vid. IMO. After doing this myself I know it will help others.. Thanks for watching and commenting Darrel and Happy Thanksgiving!!

I try to never miss a vid you post. happy Thanks giving to you and yours as well@@stephansmithoutdoors

They are sold by DD26 on their site..

Sorry Ronnie I'm not tracking with your comment question.. Was there something you wanted to know about the install or the device itself that I may be able to help you with? Thanks for watching and commenting!

@@stephansmithoutdoors If you're scout mode looking straight forward where will the green pointer be pointing

@@ronniehenson4122 "Scout Mode?" I'm the scout mode.. It points in the direction I want when I want using foot control or remote .. No programed "scout mode" to wrestle with.. i.e. working bank just have it pointed at 45 degree whether on your left or right and fire off.. wolf pack? or off a point or structure.. hit the spot lock stay on target and fire at will... short answer no "scout mode" on this device. I hope that answers your question..

@@stephansmithoutdoors Thanks!

DD26's Website.. it's the "Dogbone" stabilizer..

Go view my livescope tips and tricks video.

Good question.. whatever works best for you.. I felt that raising the TM up as to deploy just out of the cradle was sufficiently safe and easy.. Do you have a live foot?

Yes.. I have had a chance to use it and am very happy with it to date. It will be featured again in upcoming videos. Thanks for watching and commenting Kelly!

Just a note of thanks for the video, it was EXACTLY what I was looking for…I run both Garmin and Humminbirds on my walleye boat, and also have a Force TM. I currently only have HB Mega 360 on the Force since my LVS34 is mounted on a pole system in the back of the boat. There are times however that I’d like the ability to run both Livescope and 360 off the TM so your video was perfect since the company that makes the product you featured also has the option of adding 360 off the same bracket mounted to the TM. So now I have a reason to spend another 4K on upgrading to this system when adding my second Livescope😂. Seriously, I’ve watched a couple of your videos and you do an excellent job. So new subscriber here even though you fish for green things without teeth😅

@@ericbrosted6870 Thanks Eric! Very nice of you to say. Welcome aboard!

I bought everything back in July at that time EVERYTHING I used was right at $1400. I just checked DD26 website and the Live Foot Turret is $1249 and Dogbone is $199..

Are you making a statement or asking me a question? Both?Thanks for watching and commenting. Christian!

That aounds like the making of a great RU-vid video if you can make this product for $105.

@@stephansmithoutdoors all I have left to get is the mounting bracket. I haven’t decided to either get their bracket or fabricate my own. So far all I have spent is $105.

That's the kicker.. This one is machined aluminum, carbon fiber and mechanized with remote control's.. like I said the making's of a great video.. "I spent $xxx on my DIY version of the Live Foot" Time is also of value.. I love DIY when I can.. No way personally I can build something like this as engineered without spending more time and money than the $1200 price tag. Entire companies have invested mucho and can't touch it... YET lol

What do you mean reinstalled? Can you elaborate?

@@stephansmithoutdoors I think he means that we didn't see what you did with the Garmin stabilizer bar. It was mounted before you started your installation. Great video!

@@robkeeney8227 I haven't put it back on.. I could but the Garmin Force just doesn't have the problem/reputation of bouncing and jumping out of the stowed position like an Ultrex.. I feel confident at this point it's not needed.. 🤷‍♂️ Guess you can use your own judgment with that one... Thanks for your comment Rob 👍

@@stephansmithoutdoors Thanks for the reply, Stephan! I think I'll have room on the port side for the stabilizer, but will have to get 3 longer bolts to mount it.

@@robkeeney8227 For sure if you think you need it.. I don't have the room on the port side and if I do put it back on it will need to be cut down a bit in length.. It was never something I gave much thought to knowing it's a Force.. those bars are for looks imo .. now if it's an Ultrex you better have it.. I have a short vid highlighting the graph mount at the bow that will also may give some insight on how the TM preforms without that bar 💪👍
