Marine Engineering Specialist Insight: The Ulterra QUEST (MPN 1358501) represents the pinnacle of sonar integration. Unlike standard motors, this model features **Built-In MEGA Side Imaging (MSI)** and MEGA Down Imaging (MDI), providing 360-degree underwater awareness. Powered by a brushless motor, it offers the torque and efficiency required for professional-grade bass and multispecies angling.
Brushless Stealth with MEGA Side Imaging
The Minn Kota Ulterra QUEST (MPN: 1358501) is the ultimate tool for anglers who demand total boat control and elite-level sonar. This 45-inch brushless motor features **Dual 24/36V Auto-Sensing**, delivering 90 lbs of thrust at 24V or a massive 115 lbs at 36V. The brushless design ensures a silent approach while providing 50% more torque to combat wind and heavy vegetation.
This premium model is distinguished by its **Integrated MEGA Side Imaging (MSI)**. By housing the MSI transducer within the lower unit, you receive crystal-clear Side and Down Imaging directly on your Humminbird screen with zero external cables. Combined with the legendary **Auto Stow/Deploy and Power Trim**, you can manage your entire setup from the wireless remote without moving from your casting position.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can the MSI sonar work with any fish finder?
The built-in MEGA Side Imaging is optimized for Humminbird SOLIX and HELIX models. It requires a compatible Humminbird unit to display Side Imaging and Down Imaging data.
2. What are the battery requirements for the 115 lb thrust?
To achieve 115 lbs of thrust, you must connect the motor to a 36-volt system. If connected to a 24-volt system, the motor will automatically adjust to provide 90 lbs of thrust.
