Hey Matt. This is your second video I am commenting on and today I have two things to say: 1. I deeply appreciate and respect the fact that the first thing you do is to thank people for watching your videos. Kind people like you are rare, I am afraid. 2. I received my 4 + duo yesterday and got help from your video to set it up. Thanks a lot! Keep up the great work that you do and, most importantly, ride safely! Cheers!

The advice to learn to ride first, then play with intercoms 2nd is amazing. Been riding for over 25 years, and this year when I finally got a Cardo I was completely shocked at how distracting it was to have someone else in my helmet with me. It took me a few days to correct the extra burden on my situational awareness. I wasn't prepared for this effect, nobody warned me.

Thanks for the information. Not fixed my similar issues yet so will keep trying. Currently I am feeling that my purchase of the 2 units has been a very expensive mistake - maybe my view will change. When they work, the sound is great but the missing of the beginning of sentences is unbearable. Sometimes the last couple of words get missed too for some reason. Once again, thanks for the starting point 👍

I purchased a Freecom 4+ two pack for me and a buddy. Interestingly, his unit had no issues with the crackling interference and intermittent voice cutout, but my unit had symptoms exactly like you describe in your video. After lots of testing, swapping his unit for mine in our respective helmets, riding over the same route where my unit seemed to be acting up (thinking it might have been powerline interference), Finally, after a lot of back and forth with Cardo, got them to replace my unit. The new one works perfectly with no more crackling or voice cut outs during intercom use.

Hi Robin. Thanks for your comment. I've reached out to Cardo a couple. of times but heard nothing back. It's definitely better with the right settings. We've had the units for nearly 18 months so probably too late for a warranty replacement but I might try again...

Hi Matt, Great video, I had missed all these setting, as they were not described in the manual I received or the Cardo Videos. I had trouble connecting the unit with my KTM 890 as the motorcycle connects with bluetooth. After many tries to connect between the motorcycle, Cardo4, and a Garmin Zumo I sent an email to customer support. This is what they sent back, just in case any other viewer has the same issue. (which worked for me) Thank you for contacting Cardo support. The best way to pair is to pair the phone to the motorcycle, but do not pair the phone directly to the Freecom. Then pair the Freecom to the headset pairing on the motorcycle using channel one phone pairing on the Freecom. Lastly pair the Freecom to the Garmin using the GPS pairing on the Freecom. Best regards, Cardo Systems Technical Support

You can share music but not directions? They need to fix that in the next firmware release bc that's a ridiculous oversight on their parts to not share directions with other connected riders and just wondering if anyone had any issues figuring out that's a bug vs feature!

@mrdin5332 3 жыл бұрын

I am contemplating purchasing one of these devices...but having noted all the vices in your earlier video, I am now somewhat apprehensive. One of my main aims was to utilise this bluetooth communicator linked to a navigator unit and be able to talk on the phone at the same time. Is this possible? Phone connection is a primary concern...how clearly are you able to hear and be heard when on a phone call? Signal cutting out at a distance less than 1/2 km using Bluetooth isn't an issue if phone call is made between riders and telstra support conference calls ie more than two people chatting. Look forward to your reply Matthew.

@TheDeepPlanet 3 жыл бұрын

Hi gunga din. Thanks for your comments. I'll address your questions as best I can. The device works extremely well when connected to a phone. I recommend using earplugs (acoustic earplugs are even better) to help cut out the wind noise. While on a call, because your phone is close, the only thing that could impact the quality of your call would be your carrier's coverage. Making and receiving calls does use up the battery a bit quicker but I've found it lasts ages during normal use. I've not tried the upgraded version of the Cardo 4+ that uses the mesh technology. That might be an option if rider consider communication is important to you. I've made calls while riding and people usually don't even know that I'm on the bike. It also depends on how noisy your helmet is and whether you have a tall windscreen or not.

@mrdin5332 3 жыл бұрын

@@TheDeepPlanet Thanks for replying...so phone calls between riders is a viable option but clarity subject to wind noise; admittedly linking riders by phone call means the phones are tied up or locked down, but as long as there is phone connectivity riders could be miles apart but remain in communication. Just the other question... can one speak on the phone and still receive navigation directions say from a garmin mounted device. ie two devices both connected by bluetooth to the cardo 4?

This happened to me recently, in March 2023- a week after I bought my Freedom 4. I stopped on a ride for a coffee, and as I walked into the cafe, somehow, I bumped the cardo against my leg or jacket, and it fell off. Luckily the person behind me saw it on the floor and picked it up. I followed the instructions and clicked the unit into the base station correctly. I was telling a friend who has a Sena unit, and he showed me the process to install or remove a Sena - it's much more secure and failsafe. The problem with my Freedom 4 is the little clip to lock it into position protrudes from the unit and can be easily bumped or caught on things. It's a terrible locking device design, and interestingly the latest Cardo unit is magnetised to stop it from falling off, which indicates to me that Cardo has found that people have been losing their units, and they have redesigned it to stop it from happening. The shop I bought it from claimed they had never heard of the problem.
