Disclosed is a method for providing input to a vehicle control system to navigate, position and direct a vehicle, by use of a gesture sensing device. The gesture sensing device may be in the form of: a remote, a mobile computing device such as a smartphone, a tablet or smart-watch, or a direction/motion sensor. The vehicle control system with gesture sensing device is useful for the control of radio controlled vehicles, drones and driver and driverless vehicles. In preferred embodiments, the vehicle control system with gesture sensing device is used to control GNSS/GPS enabled electric steer trolling motors, such as motors utilizing the ProNav® Angler, Rhodan® HD GPS® Anchor, Minn-Kota® IPilot, and the MotorGuide® Pinpoint.
