Power jumping with Wahoo Kickr on Apple tv

Bugs and Support
1

I have been having issues where my power is going up and down via my wahoo kickr on zwift.

After a long process of trying to troubleshoot with Wahoo which involved :slight_smile:

  • swapping internet connections
  • uninstalling / reinstalling zwift
  • firmware updates on kickr
  • unpairing sensors
  • checking battery voltages
  • reset of Apple TV with reinstall of zwift

I ran a test on Waboo and power was much more stable.

I was pairing power with Apple TV + HR and pairing cadence with companion app.

Today I tried pairing the Power / Kickr with companion and NOT with Apple TV and the power seemed far more stable.

I am using the 3 second average on power.

ERG mode works 100% , it’s just in normal mode where the issue was.

Which makes me think that there is an issue / delay with actual APPLE TV.

Anyone else encounter this ?

Running into something very similar with my Kickr Core running through Apple TV, just within the last several days. I’ve had wildly varying power outputs, with some very high spikes with minimal increase in exertion before it levels back out.

I am fairly new to Zwift. Had very similar problems with Kickr and Pixel 3. Did much the same as you to try to fix. What seems to be working is starting a workout in the Wahoo Fitness app before starting a Zwift ride.
