Depending on the thrust you need, this determines what voltage your trolling motor will be. Battery optionsīattery options for the Ulterra are pretty straightforward. The remote control has a LCD screen to give you all information needed in regards to the trolling motor, and speed and steering control. The Remote control is incredibly efficient and high tech, allowing you to control your trolling motor from anywhere in the boat by simply pushing a few buttons.
