Hey! Just thought I'd see if anyone had further reviews on the auto launch feature. Is it as great as it sounds?

Yes it’s worth whatever the upgrade costs if you do water sports. The boat launches consistently every time no matter who is driving and it’s very adjustable.

I'll add to this: 2021 AR190 with RideSteady with the Auto Launch.
Very helpful feature and glad I got it. No more teaching people how to feather the throttle as to not "Jet Blast" the surfer/wakeboarder. I had to play a little bit with the settings once I originally set it up since I set it up with less weight than I use it for surfing. If you want a consistent pull without thinking about it, cavitation, or anything else, do it!

Putting the boat in the water in about 1.5 hours here in Wisconsin on a nice 82f day. Auto Launch was amazing with my old OEM impellers and I'm guessing with the additional hole-shot from the twin-screw solarus impellers, I'm going to have to re-adjust.

Interesting. Hard to say, but I'd be curious if any re-adjustment is necessary.

Please let us know how that all works.
Don’t want to hijack this so I’ll have to dig up your impeller upgrade if it’s on here somewhere.
