NO FEED BACK STEERING QUESTION
I have NFB steering on my Starcraft, the new V has plain old steering.
My question is, can I just switch the helms and use the steering cable already in each respective boat, or are the cables unique to the helms. Feed back is appreciated on this no feedback question. |
Re: NO FEED BACK STEERING QUESTION
Check to make sure that the cable atatchs the same on both helms. Most rotary helms atatch with a big clip to retain them. Also make sure both of your helms are the same, make sure you don't have a rack in one and a rotary in the other. But I believe the cables are the same, the changes were internal in the helm.

Re: NO FEED BACK STEERING QUESTION
is the new one a Quick Connect Cable? and is the old cable a standard screw on style? they make an adapter to go both ways from old to new or opposite, you should be able to without any issues.

What skools said....
I just put a NFB helm in my 18 and the cable was the quick connect from a standard safe-T and fit fine. I am replacing cable too because its getting stiff, but they do interchange. |

Are these No Feedback systems worth it? I was just reading about them and had never really thought of one before. What are the benefits?

Re: NO FEED BACK STEERING QUESTION
They require alot less effort to steer and when u move the wheel (with one finger usually) even a tiny bit it stays PUT. EX...You can be trolling and walk all around the boat and not worry about changing course. ;)

Re: NO FEED BACK STEERING QUESTION
I installed one a year ago & love it. Its probaly not a good as hydraulic, but now adding hyd got moved way down the list. When i priced locally, the helm & cable were cheaper as a kit . $150.
