Title: TR1 Gold
Post by: Quackwhacker on August 18, 2009, 09:20:20 PM: My buddy just put his new TR1 on his boat. It only wants to turn the boat in circles when he turns the autopilot on. He has tried to calibrate the compass several times. Anyone have this problem?

I don't remember exactly what happened but I believe I had accidentally hit the MOB button which makes the boat circle. What I do remember is that it was operator error in my case.
They have very good customer service. If he can't figure it out, just have him give them a call.
Good luck!

I hope to have one someday. Tey are sooo nice for fishing on anchor or back trolling in rivers.
