Virtual shifting

Re: Virtual shifting
Would be so nice to have the virtual shifting for the Direto XR.
I hope we don’t get forgotten about and forced to buy a newer trainer. Also the 10hz mode I imagine can implemented with a firmware update if the hardware allows. I guess we will see in the next few weeks

Re: Virtual shifting
As far as I can tell, the virtual shifting is Elite's own with the new Square, controlled by their app, and doesn't work with Zwift's virtual shifting. But it is still virtual shifting.
Re: Virtual shifting
That said the controllers on the bars resemble zwift play buttons? Surely the virtual shifting has to be zwift compatible?

Re: Virtual shifting
Elite's web page mentions the buttons controling Zwift and specifically mentions Zwift Play. So I assume the buttons work like Zwift Play for controlling the UI etc. But the virtual shifting is different and is Elite's own solution via their Square app.
Re: Virtual shifting
good work Steve.
Re the direto I find that by lowering the TD on zwift I can get away with utilising just 3 gears. Middle rear ring for vast majority of riding (also the straightest line between front and rear rings), one down for sprinting, one up for climbing.
I do like the clunk of a manual gear change but.....the belt drive does appeal

Re: Virtual shifting
Does this mean I can do a firmware upgrade of my DiretoXR already and buy the zwift ride frame? Or do we have to wait?

Re: Virtual shifting
I asked on Elite's Facebook page about a firmware update for existing Direto XR owners, and this is what they said:
Currently, this is the only compatible version. We have a firmware update for the Direto XR / XR-Ts on our schedule, aiming to make them Zwift Ready by the end of the year.
