Virtual Gears Latency
Today, for the first time, I experienced serious latency with virtual gears - like 2.5 minutes before I felt the resistance increase or decrease. I tested this several times in my ride going from gear 2 to 8 and back to 2 then waiting for the resistance to change.
I'm using a Samsung Android tablet to run TPV. I thought it may be latency to the Kickr Core (latest firmware) power changes in the pedals reflected immediately. Gradient changes affected the trainer instantly too.
I've also noticed, since last week that, when using a structured workout, time for resistance to change seems to be a bit longer. Say starting an interval, it takes maybe around 15s to settle at the target power. Not sure if this is related in any way.
Any thoughts on the virtual gear latency?
Many thanks for letting us know about this, and your support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that the latest release, out today, fixes the problem with lag in the Bluetooth connection, and so resistance changes should now happen immediately as expected.
