Intuitive, versatile control for Suzuki outboards with Ultraflex's Integra JS joystick

Date: 18-Apr-2023
Ultraflex

Ultraflex’s new Integra JS joystick combines with the company’s Integra EPS electronic power steering to interface directly with Suzuki outboards, giving incredible steering manoeuvrability and advanced fishing functionality.

At low speeds (at ramps, alongside wharves or in marinas) Integra JS effortlessly moves the boat in any direction: forward, reverse, sideways or diagonally and even enables it to spin on its own axis.

In addition, Integra JS specialist fishing modes give total control when bottom or drift fishing. Position Hold maintains a GPS position using the engine’s RPM and steering, Heading Hold positions the bow at a set heading while drifting with the current and wind and Heading and Hold virtually “anchors” the boat in a set position and heading.

Fully customisable to each skipper’s preference, Integra EPS automatically adjusts helm turns in its Auto Cruise and Auto Sport driving modes, increasing or decreasing steering turns depending on the engine’s RPM. With customisable adjustments over the RPM range, Integra EPS offers more helm feedback at higher speeds (for a positive controlled steering experience). At lower speeds, a lighter feedback plus reduced turns gives more responsive control when manoeuvring at close quarters.

With an autopilot that direct interfaces with Raymarine and Garmin electronics, Integra EPS is suitable for all outboard makes while the Integra JS joystick interfaces directly with Suzuki outboards.

Ultraflex’s Integra EPS steering and Integra JS joystick control are now available.
