DH Pilot

DHconcepts presents the DH Pilot, a mobile app that connects to the ALPHA + or ALPHAmini bait boat and offers a special experience in operation and navigation. DH Pilot is plug and play, just install and use it. No setup needed.

Just turn on your boat and the remote control and off you go. Unique and frustration-free. Explore and mark your fishing spots. And easily return them later to place your baits with precision. It is up to you whether the navigation is simply done using the tap and drive function and subsequent action, such as opening the bait trays. Features such as automatic return to home, control of the peripherals or monitoring of the batteries and much more are integrated and ready to run.

Note on Wifi Echo Sounders in general if your boat was not equipped with a Raymarine:
