Marine Engineering Specialist Insight: The Ultrex QUEST (MPN 1368921) with a 52-inch shaft is the high-performance "sweet spot" for modern professional anglers. By integrating MEGA Side Imaging (MSI) into a dual-voltage brushless motor, this unit provides unmatched torque and 360-degree sonar clarity while maintaining the instantaneous, tactile "cable-steer" response required for elite tournament boat control.
The Brushless Hybrid Standard with MSI Clarity
The Minn Kota Ultrex QUEST (MPN: 1368921) redefines the hybrid trolling motor category. It utilizes a massive QUEST series brushless motor that is built to deliver 50% more torque and up to 30% longer run times than traditional brushed motors. Its auto-sensing power system allows you to run at 90 lbs of thrust on a 24V bank or step up to a staggering 115 lbs of thrust on a 36V bank.
This premium model comes fully equipped with Built-In MEGA Side Imaging (MSI) and MEGA Down Imaging (MDI). The transducer is housed internally within the brushless lower unit, providing crystal-clear sonar views 125 feet to either side of the motor without any external cables or clutter. With the legendary Power Steering foot pedal and the included Micro Remote, you get total control over Spot-Lock® and navigation from anywhere on the deck.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Why choose the 52-inch shaft for the MSI QUEST model?
The 52-inch shaft (MPN 1368921) provides the necessary depth for large multispecies boats and bass boats to keep the MSI transducer submerged in heavy waves without the bulk of a longer saltwater shaft.
2. Does it require a special battery setup for brushless power?
No. The motor auto-senses your 24V or 36V setup and optimizes performance automatically. However, high-quality Lithium battery banks are recommended to maximize the efficiency of the QUEST brushless system.
