At this point I would say it’s prob true collective just doesn’t care. Last year there was @Podger who could fix and get anything up and running. He either doesn’t work there anymore or is doing different stuff. He woukd have fixed all of your problems already. Sad part is he left almost a year ago and collective will not replace him. Maybe they can’t with the knowledge he had. But it’s sad that collective is just not helping anyone. They have sold a lot of units and they just don’t care. I’m sorry guys.
 
I think I have finally figured out a Drive Hub trick.

* If you are experiencing disconnects mid-race try this! *

When you boot Drive Hub, your wheel MUST be the first thing it detects. I tested this over the last few days and here is what happened to me:

Power on wheel.
Connect Drive Hub and let it boot.
Watch what is displayed on its LED <-- very important

MOST of the time, my wheel is not the first thing detected. For some reason, it's my TH8A shifter, then the wheel, then the pedals. When I get this order, I WILL get a disconnected during a race. It will be the 1st or 2nd race, and I lose wheel and pedals and crash. It always happens on a straight. I can't explain why it happens, but it does in this fashion. Doesn't matter if I am using shifter or paddles.

Now, if the WHEEL is the first thing show on the Drive Hub display, I can race 6 straight races with no issues as I have the last two days. I am sure I could keep going, but I got tired and quit after 6.

* Keep resetting the Drive Hub by pressing P1 until your wheel is the first thing detected *

You may have to do this 2-3 times before the detection order is correct. For me it is always: Wheel>Shifter>Pedals. That's what works 100% of the time.
