FAQ
Does the Flux plate fit Rhodan trolling motors?+
In many setups, yes — but confirm your bracket first. Rhodan ships its own composite quick-release puck with mounting hardware. Before ordering, send us a photo or the dimensions of your puck's bolt pattern and we'll confirm fitment against the plate's tapped holes — we answer within a business day.
Do I use the plate's hardware or Rhodan's?+
Use the 1/4-20 hardware that came with your Rhodan mount — manufacturers spec a specific grade and length for their bracket. Add a drop of blue Loctite 243 to each bolt so vibration can't back it out.
What battery does a Rhodan motor need?+
Rhodan's bow mounts run 12V (55 lb) · 24V (80 lb) · 36V (120 lb). Match the battery voltage to your motor — see our battery guide for the exact picks and matching chargers.
Port or starboard?+
Either. The plate is symmetric and reversible — flip it for the side that clears your cleats, anchor locker, and rail hardware.
