Manta and ReelCrappie,

I have the power drive 55lb thrust with the copilot.I thought the same thing no variable speed if you use the remote. This is not true.
First leave the foot pedal pluged in to the trolling motor. set the speed that you want with the 0-10 on the foot pedal then use the wireless remote to turn the motor on and off with the momentary switch on the remote.
The speed set on the foot pedal is the lowest speed on the remote.
It really does work.It is really nice when you have the foot pedal in the boat when the battery goes dead in the remote and it wont turn.
Ya one other thing the pedal always over rides the remote. So if you have the foot pedal on contunious the wireless remote does not respond.
Try this and I think you will really be glad you bought it .
