    I’ve. Had one for two years and it is awesome never leave the paved roads without it.

    Interesting option. I just installed a AIO-5 lite on my GS and I’m very impressed. I seamlessly connect my iPhone and enjoy all the features. I wish it was slightly bigger but can probably fix that with a trip to the optometrist!
    I also have a Rugged mobile that I bought off eBay and it use it on big trips. Like you I haven’t downloaded much to it other than navigation apps but it has a sim and I run it on another network to give me strength through diversity. It obviously doesn’t integrate with the bike wiz-wheel, but I just use start it at the beginning of the day and leave it running. It has a HUGE battery and can run all day. I prefer to apple interface but as you say you do get used to other systems.

    A-GPS (assisted, mobile) and GPS are different navigational aids that both use information from satellites to determine their exact location.
    A-GPS is faster in finding the location but GPS gives a more precise location information.
    Some phones, example iPhone 15 has integrated precision dual-frequency GPS, including support for GLONASS, Galileo, QZSS, BeiDou, and NavIC.
    BUT what app are you using with CarPlay and Apple for navigation thus the dedicated GPS might be the best option

    wait, is the carpe iter working with the wonder wheel? i don't understand wth you mean about "see constellations" and many modern phones use a GPS sat antenna for location. Also, if you just setup google drive you don't have to faff about emailing. just drag and drop into your google drive and sync to the tablet.

    While my bike isnt a gs1300 it is a gsa1250 i didnt do any modifications to my bike when mounting the chigee cameras in the specified height as per Chigee instructions also didnt just stick them on with double sided tape

      @@ABIKETHING Ah, I now know that it disappears if you have it horizontal (like when it's on the bike!). Portrait, it appears again. Still getting used to it, but slightly disappointed with the max brightness. Better than my Nav VI, obvs, but not quite bright enough when wearing shades on a sunny day. Nice and big though!

    Steve , be interesting when you’re finished with service ask them for a copy of Mecanic comments to see if they register you non bmw accessories they plug it into the bmw service system, they did with mine here in ES !

    You're leaving so much on the table. Configure DMD2, which comes with the Carpe Iter. (Pronounced carpay eater, heheh). You also get several nav subscriptions free, I believe. That may be only through Thork Racing, though.

    If you put in your route on your phone it will still navigate without internet and that is the same for your chigee

    • @ABIKETHING
      @ABIKETHING  Před měsícem

      That’s not technically true. There’s a load of other parameters that need to be adhered to for your phone to not require data to navigate without an issue.

    It pains me to correct you on how cell phones work with GPS, but they do have GPS tracking in cell phone. The reason that you cannot use them without Wi-Fi is because the maps are cellular based. If you were to work with an app where the data is downloaded to your phone like Sygic, doesn't matter where you are in the world if you have the map downloaded, you don't need cellular signal. Although dedicated satnav and GPS are better
