    Actually I did some changes relating to the scheduling, so it's great it fixed you lag issues.

    Unfortunately this victory was short lived :( I tried again with Batmobile, and the huge lags are back. Kind of strange, since this morning I was able to connect several times flawlessly, including with 42099. I tried to unpair the controller, reboot my phone and make the same sequence of actions I did this morning (pair the controller, lauch BC2, connect to Batmobile) but to no avail. :cry2:

    where the author identifies the H25 chips as Dual buffer/line driver; 3-state CMOS level (one per channel, starting with the Powered-UP series)  74HC2G125

    Makes sense... thanks!

    Just an idea, wouldn't that be anyway correct to consider they're limited anyway to the max absolute ratings of the LB1836 motor driver which allows 1A per channel?  To be honest, way less, as you identified the fuse on the wedo to be a 1.5A fuse.. :) so considering this and the board own consumption this is probably designed for a max of 0.6-0.7A per channel?)

    Yes, but if you build your own controller you can used a much more capable motor driver... then physical limits of the connector are important to know ;)

    Unfortunately I have stumbled into a rather significant issue regarding mapping for the minifig head. The three types of LDraw projections do not cover the type of projection that Studio 2.0 applies!

    Do you have an example where Studio UV mapping is significantly different from cylindrical (or even front/back planar) projections? I couldn't find one (and I think that Part Designer uses plain planar anyway)

    Just using projections is so 1990. ;-)

    Why take a hammer to crush a fly? :laugh:  Anyway patterns are mostly acquired by photo/scan so are (essentially) planar projections...

    Hi @imurvai, Actually I wanted to do that in software, but not get too deep in low level code... that's why I tried BC2. Since it seems that getting rotation encoder encoder is not yet available in BC2, I used external sensors on a PUP hub to have a minimum feedback about the position of the arm. But now that Technic hub is supported in Powered up app, I'll use that to make what I want (even though this app does have some stupid shortcomings, such as limited range in input/output fields!)

    maximum allowed current rating for wire , plug, socket contats

    We could derive max wire current from its gauge (this is probably the highest rating of all the things that could limit current), but as plugs and sockets are custom, it's impossible to get manufacturer data... and I don't know how to "safely" measure that :(

    Steering wheel really cannot be moved

    Problem is that it appears partially outside of my screen...

    can offer something more interesting

    Disconnect button on device screen?

    Otherwise, found a little glitch: I seem to be unable to discover a Technic hub that I renamed using powered up app. After changing back to default "Technic Hub" name, worked fine.
