Hi Zwifters! I am relatively new to Zwift, I only got two rides in my legs as of today. I bought a Zwift Hub and am running Zwift on an AppleTV. Since don’t own / never owned a road bike I am using my 29" Mountainbike for zwifting. I had the impression that this was a legit thing to do. I quickly…

@DirtyHarry thanks, already implemented. you can send me a pm and i will send you the new beta or write me on the qdomyos github page

OK, back again. I finally got the chance to test ride the app by @Roberto_Viola today, and I saw some significant(!) improvements. I finally seemed to reach ‘normal’ speeds when pedaling on the straights and I was no longer a sitting duck compared to all the other riders. Also, the inclines felt mor…

With QZ you’re not cheating in any way, you’re just adding some strength to your actual resistance. I don’t know what could be the perfect setup for you because it’s very subjective. You should try to give me some inputs based on your feelings, and I can try to transform them into code and setting…

Hi Roberto, Thanks a lot for your reply. With “fast” I was referring to the speed in km/h shown in Zwift. Since switching to QZ, I see much higher speeds than before. It’s a bit hard to explain, but I’ll try: I have no means to measure power on my MTB, so I can’t really compare any real world v…

when you’re talking about QZ speed, you’re talking about the Speed tile that you see on qz? If so it’s because by default, QZ is calculating speed based on your cadence. But you can enable the speed calculation based on power (as zwift does) enabling the “Speed based on power” setting. If instead y…

Hi Roberto! Thanks for your reply. I was indeed referring to the speed indicated in the Zwift app. I understand now that thanks to the increased wattage I am able to put into the trainer by using your app, I can now reach higher speeds on the straights, more equal to what I am used to in real lif…

[image] Harald: It seems though that Zwift more or less purely relies on the power Zwift only use power to calculate speed. [image] How Does Zwift Determine My Speed? Bugs and Support How Does Zwift Determine My Speed? For Wheel-on Classic Trainers: Zwift takes t…

There is a YouTube video from GPLama about how trainers estimate cadence

Hi @Roberto_Viola I have just bought a Zwift Hub and have the identical issue as @DirtyHarry so was delighted to see your app! I’ve just bought your app to see if that helps but I’m having trouble connecting the app to the hub. Before I continue troubleshooting, I just wanted to check that I have…

hi @Craig_Smallman the zwift hub support is in beta. write me on the email that you find on the qz app to receive the beta let me know!

Thank you Roberto. I have sent an email (hopefully to the right email address I found via the app)

Zwift only use power to calculate speed.
