  I am using an iPad Pro. I am also needing to go back to the opening page to reconnect my SBrick to the app. I have also needed to restart the app to get it to see and connect to the SBrick.
  
  Fianally, I would be very interested in using this app for interfacing with my Spike Prime and Robot Inventor hubs.

    Paul Warren The way I've found to do it is: On Start -> Forever Do -> Motor A set power -> Joystick B X value

    It doesn't seem ideal to have to use a tight loop like this. It would be nice if there was an "on change" event that you could hook into. The app certainly uses a lot of power, and I suspect that these tight loops aren't helping.

I am able to see the SBrick hubs and the BuWizz hubs on the initial start screen. I can connect to the hubs and assign devices to the ports and control those devices. But, when I go to the project I do not see the hubs. What do I need to do to see the hubs so I can assign control to the hub ports? Do I need to update the SBrick firmware? I tried that but it never completes the process. One time the app even crashed!  

  • Nov 11

  • 
    Lénárd Pásztor You not need to update the sbrick firmware, but thanks for trying it! you can set up the hubs inside the project at the coding area you will find the "hubs" section on the left side.

    Michael Wareman I had to test the hub first on the opening screen before it would work on the project screen. Thank you for the tip.

    Lénárd Pásztor we published a new version from the app, and the new one not compatible with the older projects. Do you need access for the old code? Then hopefully I can send you a project file, but you can't import that to the new app.

Unfortunately, it is not compatible with the last version of the projects. So we moved your projects (if any) to a backup. The new version has many new features, but most important it have a much wider hardware compatibity, like Buwizz and some LEGO hubs. You can download from here:

  Windows driver: https://download.sbrick.com/windriver/

Despite a good hygiene concept, the current negative development of Covid-19 infections has been taken into account. In addition, reliable planning was almost impossible. However, there will be an online event for the weekend 21.11. and 22.11. as a replacement.

  I build a tracked Tractor with 2 L-Motors powered by a custom LiPo Battery, so this Motors have some extrapower.
  I use in the Profil a Joystick to contol, so far so good, all works like designed.
  
  Now the question, how can I reduced the power to (for example 50%) on default. And with a circuit FullPower can have 100% Power on the Mototrs ?
  
  did you can give me a hint ?
