i hope you have a boat or someone else to help you carry all this stuff you are thinking about buying. i have a trumotion with a remote. one thing about the receiver for the remote...if it gets wet it won' t work. you can' t let your deke fall in the water. if it does, you have to disassemble it, dry off the circuit board, and put it back together. this is a pain in the field, as the screws holding the board in are just a bit bigger than eyeglass screws.
with all the practice i' ve had, i' m getting pretty good at drying it out.

I have a small duffel bag with a shoulder strap that use to carry everything. It works pretty well. Psandhu is right about the screws. I put the wings on my decoy, and mount it to it' s pole when I get in the field, and if you happen to drop one of those screws in the water, you' re done with that decoy for the day. So the first thing I did after I got mine was to go to the hardware store and buy a bunch of spare screws that I keep in a pouch in my coat. Good thing too, because the first time I put it together I droped one of those dang things in the water. Also make sure you have a Leatherman or a small srewdiver with you.
