    Just got mine yesterday and i tried to set up for my Cardo and phone. It took me 2 hours of frustration trying to have the music comes out of cardo and for the love of me could not figured it out. I went to bed frustrated and woke up frustrated that i couldn't set it up. Today i took a different approach and scoured the YT University again. Your video set up and instructions was so clear and precise that i have it running in no time. Thank you so much! You are a lifesaver sir! Edit: Subscribed to the channel!

    If you install it into a USB (A) plug, do not ride it in the rain, and pull out the plug when it's gonna be in rain. :D The Proper way is to connect the wire directly to a relay. Then you can use it in the rain.

    I just installed mine today. I’ll admit it’s nice you made this because the instructions are far from quality. Hard to read for an old guy like me lol. The unit however seems to be built well. I put it on my 2021 Can Am Spyder RT. I was quite frustrated till I got it working. Not because of this unit but because of the totally crap BRP electronics. They are pathetic. Sometimes the radio functions work other times not so much. Case in point before this I’d be playing music from my iPhone VIA Bluetooth. Then as I’m driving , it would stop. Trying to reconnect while your driving is certainly not safe and frustrating as hell because it’s all done with a joy stick and many pages to move through. Also you’d think in this day and age you wouldn’t have to sit and wait till the hour glass icon saying loading goes away. Sometimes pretty quick others not so much. So in all fairness I believe this unit is well worth while. The Can Am…..that’s still up for discussion. Over all it’s good but for the money it falls way short. I only bought it because of surgery on my hand I can no longer pull a clutch. I’m a die hard V Twin guy so this is hard to accept. A bike that had a great sound to something that sounds like a sewing machine. Anyway thanks for a good video!

    I have similar device but issues with intercom / headset. I need to pair my phone (s22+) to this device for android auto. Then i pair this device with my cardo headset from second mobilephone channel. First channel is for between cardo headset and s22+ phone directly. If i pair from first channel then Cardo headset uncontrollable independently, for example, if i turn off motorcycle, device turns off too and controls headset, turning it off too. In running normally state, i can't connect to my passenger intercom, headset says "busy". I need to disconnect headset from carplay device to connect my passenger headset. There are very strange situations, I tried different methods but could not find it.

    The Bluetooth Emit function on mine constantly drops connection to my Cardo in my helmet. The only remedy is to physically remove the device from the mount and reattach it, because the power button doesn't respond. Has anyone experienced this?

    As in mounting the phone? You could, but you will most likely destroy the cameras on the phone from the vibration.
