I read where Fishin is life, said his friend had trouble steering through standing timber. I was in standing timber on Laurel and never had any trouble at all and the coves on laurel is full of snags. and for me the remote works better in standing timber than the foot pedal did. the foot pedal is really hard to get use to. you don't work it by moving your foot up and down like the ones I've had before. it has 3 buttons on the rear end of the pedal, the middle one turns the prop, and the left one steers left, and right steers right. sounds simple but old habits are hard to break.

I don't need the terrova but was considering it to get the foot pedal, it's a hundred and fifty dollars or so higher than the one I want to buy... Do you use the foot pedal much, hate to pay the extra bucks for something I won't use.... Since I have gotten older, the foot control is tough on my joints.
