Minn kota just had a software update to coincide with humminbirds newest update with the Mega live connectivity. As of now both the humminbird and I pilot link are on the latest software. I got a call back this morning from Humminbird technical support and for now they think that it may be the heading sensor that is faulty but they have not made a final determination on that. It seems that the helix is giving priority to the ipilot link any time it is powed on whether deployed or stowed. And even though I have the as gps set as the gps source its still trying to use the ipilot. Just a thought but before I got the ipilot link, when sitting still I would get the donut, but once I installed the ipilot link I would always have the boat icon when sitting still even if the terrova was stowed. once the boat started moving I would get the course over ground line. Before the as gps was installed I always had the internal GPS of the Helix as my primary source. Leads me to wonder if the ipilot heading sensor is still working when the motor is in the stowed position. It does still blink every few seconds while in the stowed position. I think I read somewhere that when stowed, the ipilot heading should be turned off. Sort of makes me wonder if the trolling motor isn't at fault.
