This year, I have used two completely different set ups on two different continents and still get the same issue…steering will not work correctly unless you connect in a specific order.
In Europe, using the Play controllers on a Windows PC and in North America using a Tacx Neo Bike Plus on an Apple device thingy.
When pairing, Zwift will automatically connect to everything and if I don’t change this, I will get crashes in game or the Steering just won’t work…sometimes it will show as connected in the Nearby List alongside my name tag but can I steer?
Can I heck!
If I connect the proper way, ie. connecting individually starting with Power, then Resistance, Cadence and finishing with Steering…we are good but if I let the system do it, not good and problems lie ahead.
Like I said, two completely different systems on different continents but the same issue… It must be me, yes!?
